We will be scrutinised the most leading up to the game. I expect headlines such as "last chance saloon" or "now or never" when discussing us. Mourinho will also start talking about us/Poch in a few weeks too, calling it an unfair advantage, saying how he admires our players, how Poch could manage any club in the world etc.

We are literally about to see the most aggressive analysis of Tottenham in recent years - everyone of our first team players will be linked to every club around the world.

We have an abysmal record in cup semi finals, but we have played a lot better in the last few, the 4-2 loss to Chelsea was horrible, you just felt like we would come back into the game until Matic's rocket. We have to use the recent loses to push on and play with more maturity. This includes Poch, who has to be savvy and stick to our strengths.

We have a better team than United, but they are perpetual winners. Chelsea will most likely scrape past Southampton and they have had our number in cup competitions recently, apart from Woodgate's nosing it in of course!

I am already so nervous, and we are nowhere near the games! However a trophy has been long overdue, so COYS!!!

That sounds like every week for us for the last 3 seasons!

VAR quite a relief tbh. Don’t mind waiting 2 mins if it means the right decision in a semi final.

Like it helped against Rochdale and Swansea.

Interestingly, I just went over to the United website and they're advising that applications for tickets start tomorrow and that priority goes to fans who have attended prior home cup games this season.
The FA Website has us down as the Sunday game but neither the Spurs or United sites have that date.

Edit - the date on the FA site is actually 21/04 for both fixtures. My bad,

blackburn · Mar 20, 2018

I wonder how many petitions there will be if we reach the final?

About 7 if it's Chelsea. 7 votes that is, as that's their fanbase outside of 3rd world countries watching on TV

It'll be that few because the vast majority of their fans can't read or write.

I wonder how many of them would care if we were playing turd and losing games at Wembley.

Bayern, CL final, end of argument.

The only discussion in my mind is whether FA Cup Semi finals are better off elsewhere.

TottenhamMattSpur · Mar 20, 2018

It does seem that since the 60's, no team has ever contested a semi final at their own ground.

But Wembley isn't ours so I don't care.

The F.A. wants the semi finals at Wembley to help pay for the place. Tha's the crux of the matter.

Of course they do, I’m only saying that were that not the case, I personally wouldn’t have an issue with semi finals being elsewhere, Cardiff for example.

I don’t subscribe to this home advantage bs and the man united fans can go do one. Everyone knew it was a possibility before the season began, only now that we are playing well is it an issue.

I'm happy to give up the wembley advantage if they can give up the finance advantage.

We should only field sides of the same level of wage

Wages and transfer fees.

The wait for the date is excruciating! If it’s Saturday I can’t go, but if it’s Sunday I can. Hope they announce it tomorrow

I know what you mean. Mate of mine is running the London marathon so is hoping for the Saturday game. My niece & goddaughter is in her first play on both the Saturday and Sunday, I just need to know the day of the game so I can confirm which date we can attend.

Hurry the fuck up and just announce it!
