@yankspurs How old are you? Just to gauge why you would prefer us to try and get 4th rather than winning cups?

I'd rather get CL so we can get more money to be able to build upon it and advance it further. ID rather either get 4th or win Europa than win the Cap 1 cup and the FA Cup, personally.

However, if it comes down to winning the FA or winning the cap 1, i choose winning the FA Cup

We need to win a cup (FA, League, or Europa) sooner rather than later, I am not concerned about 4th, you can't beat a day out at wembley. I feel that we have a better chance with the Cups than finishing 4th.

Hopefully common sense prevails and the game will be on Tuesday with us being the early kick off Saturday (against city no less). But knowing our luck it'll probably be Wednesday night and go to extra time and penalties...:rolleyes:

Edit: didn't realise we had palace on the Sunday, will definitely be Wednesday night then. I hope poch rotates properly...

You won't mind our start to the season then

Not at all, but I still want us to win every game, but where is the glory in finishing 4th in the league, would much prefer lifting silverware at the end of the season

If forgoing winning the Cap 1 or the FA cup could mean one final CL nights at the Lane next year, I'd gladly make that trade.

Also I hope we don't give them the full allocation after all the times they've shafted us for the full allocation at their gaffe...

Yeah thankfully we didn't win the cup last season, that would really have ruined everything.

If you can point out where I said anything like that it would be great.

We coasted to the semi-final last year. If the kids/reserves do the same this year then all well and good. But doesn't mean we should put the more important games at risk until that point.

Do you believe its a realistic trade? Who do you think will finish above to get the fourth or third spot?

Flew out to Mauritius on honeymoon in 2010. While I was on the Emirates plane we were losing 4-1 to the scum in the League Cup at The Lane. Not going anywhere but WHL this time.

Keano's last Spurs goal :(

With little to no chance of picking anything up away to city id say go all in for this one. Do we even have a second string team at the moment???

I gave up my ticket for that one.

They clearly need us.
