Spurs FA Cup article
There’s no game to preview this weekend as Spurs sit out the fourth round of the FA Cup. Instead I have written an article on my special feelings for the cup and the important part it has played in Tottenham’s history. This has been published on the excellent Spurs’ website thefightingcock.co.uk. The article can be found here.
Tottenham were brought down to earth with a bump in this chastening defeat.
There has been a great deal of optimism at Spurs since the change of manager. There have been some good results, not least at Old Trafford, and most importantly the team finally scoring some goals. It really felt that Spurs could carry this momentum into the game and record a famous victory. It didn’t turn out that way.
Some fans are suggesting we should play a second team in our FA Cup 3rd round tie against Arsenal. This depresses me; if you don’t think a cup game at the Emirates is important then you have some mixed up priorities. Besides after beating United we have some real momentum now and beating Arsenal would be invaluable for our confidence.
