I have a question and wasn't sure where to post it so I hope I haven't wasted a thread by asking it separately. Should Spurs reach a final will the fact that we're playing at Wembley regularly throughout the season devalue the occasion? A team reaching a Wembley final is a momentous day full of excitement, pride and vigour and a not very often event but will playing there regularly take the thrill away?
Now we've discovered I am a dumbass I have another answer. Players often feel overwhelmed playing in front of so many people instead of the usual 30 to 50 thousand so as we would have been doing it all season it should solve that problem.
You're NOT a dumbass, stop it. You could be right there but teams lift themselves for the occasion and I just feel playing there nearly every week might give us a lift problem.
Makes me a dumbass for giving Colin a like. Anyway...maybe it's just me and the good week we have had....but I think it is more to do with Poch and his demeanor. I think he's told the boys to think like winners...it's like he has got us believing that we are an elite team...now go and show it. Obviously that's just a very basic summary and a lot of intricate preparation and hard work is taking place but I think we will start to believe that we own Wembley. If we got to a Cup final...think we would embrace it and strut our stuff in our adopted home. Had we had a poor week...I would have had a different response, no doubt.
It will be strange only having half the stadium again for cup finals. Might impact on the players, who seem to struggle when Wembley’s quieter. The Spursy atmosphere will be missing which could now throw them off.
If you make a final would it still be held a Wembley? the final is supposed to be at a neutral venue, could it be moved to Cardiff for a one off game?
I don't think that that Champions League Final is being played at Wembley this year so the question is a bit of a non-starter. However, Diego is right re: the other cups, the finals are supposed to be played at a neutral venue. I doubt if the FA or Football League have had the forethought to consider this possibility. Even if we reach the semi final of the FA Cup the rule has always been that it is played at a neutral venue. I can see the Hacks now, if Spurs won one of the other cups at Wembley the hoodoo would be long forgotten and they would be crying foul, particularly if the final was against one of their darling clubs, l'arse, the mousers, manure or the chavs, possibly even Citeh.
It will only be 4 games max (3 if the FA were not cash-strapped morons playing FA Cup SFs at Wembley) .
