FA cup draw

[Bristol Shrimp]

We have gone from Buxton in the rain to visiting the best stadium in the world.

False.

[Phoenix Shrimp 2017]

Dream tie that, absolutely superb! Their new ground looks superb on TV never mind actually being there. Can only imagine what our resident Spurs fans like Shrimper and Scoobie are feeling right now.

The usual script is reduced ticket prices so I would imagine a very large attendance and a big pay day for the club.

Can't wait.

I'm a resident Spurs fan along with Shrimper etc. London's biggest club , unfortunately not yet London's most successful !

It must be a dream for you too Gone_Shrimping! Some recent new build stadiums are nothing more than the usual big bowl. Spurs however have created a work of art. It will be an honour just to be there. We won't expect anything from the game and probably won't get anything but it will be superb just being there for the weekend with no real pressure.

They listened to their fans. The home end holds 27,000 when full which it is for league matches. The pitch is a slide in one so will be immaculate.

if its on a Sunday trains from Lancaster to London Euston don't start till 10.30 ish and don't arrive till after 2pm, although loads of trains are on the Saturday, they only takes around 3 n half hours compared to a coach going into central London, further than Wembley, double the time easily.

[Redalert1970]

No reason why it won’t be on a Saturday at 3pm

Can’t see it been a TV game

Always have been in terms of world wide support.

Agree , can't see it being a TV game. If it had been here maybe.

Was Chelsea on TV last year , I can't remember.

[lancaster shrimp]

WOW.... JUST WOW
Anyone want to guess
How many tickets we will get allocated?
How many tickets will season ticket holders be able to purchase?
How many will we take?
Will we sell out?

We should get 5000 minimum

As it’s a cup game you always get more

Didn't Jon Obika come through the ranks at Spurs? He'll be itching to get fully fit for this one.

Our manager started his career at Tottenham. Played a couple of games.

Travelled a lot and never seen a Spurs fan. Still a great draw for Morecambe

We will have as many tickets as we can sell. Hopefully at least 3000-4000

[Freez]

Looking forward to visiting the new ground. Great tie
In terms of worldwide support, Spurs used to be big but are way behind other English clubs following the introduction of the Premier League.
A cursory search on google confirms this. A more in depth one widens the gap still further. Sorry.

[Redalert1970]

Hopefully the Spurs draw can affect our league form in a good way

Surely all the players will have extra few percent effort every game now as they will all want to start at spurs

South Korea ? Son is probably South Korea's most popular footballer in their history and signed a 5 year extension.

In England ?

How many London clubs would get 83,000 , 84,000 for the visit of teams like Burnley just as Spurs did when they used Wembley for a home ? Admittedly it was a much better Spurs team than now. Stamford Bridge is small so much easier to sell out. Sorry.

That was due to COVID-19 restrictions and was a temporary agreement. 3pm games on the Saturday won't be live on 'Red Button'.

Good draw and I know of at least one dedicated Shrimps fan who will be delighted to see BOTH his teams play each other in the FA Cup.....eh Glen.. :

Not sure I can handle a long coach trip so investigating the train .....when we know the date of the tie.

[P/T Indie]

It's quite a walk from the tube station at Seven Sisters you can however get an overground train from Liverpool Street to opposite the ground, although I suppose you could jump on a bus that takes you up the high street from Seven Sisters.

Fantastic stadium, been a few times for the American Football. Not in the best spot to get to, but when you're inside it's about as good as it gets.
