OMT - Tottenham Hotspur FC vs Tamworth FC

Going to find a loan for Dorrington - thats a good indication of where he is at, and also suggests we expect a couple of CBs back soon.
 
Little bit of the Tamworth captain interview in here around 19 mins
Also Teddy talking a TINY bit about Spurs
Also Coley Joe Cole and Coley Ash Coley Cole

Why? The pitch looks like any other artificial grass pitch. If they can't handle that, they might as well quit playing football! And I'm fudge7kg serious about that! The conditions for playing football are near perfect on that surface!

It's the same as this one, which they play on every day

I theory you're right, but Tamworth play and train on it in competitive games all the time whereas we will just have trained on it occassionally and you see in tennis some players perform better on different surfaces. My companies team played on them for a couple of seasons and we played a team from Yorkshire in the Union Cup they were one of the favourites and we beat them easily on it. In games like this the underdog has to use everything it can to upset the "better" team and bring them down to their level that's the great thing about the cup, always a great test of character.

They play and train regularly inside on the same type. Also, every team are more familiar at home. But the pitch itself should not cause any problems whatsoever.

No it's not, that's an even levelled indoor pitch probably temperature controlled, it's not effected by weather conditions. I hope I'm wrong but I think this game will not be as easy as everyone thinks it is. A weakened team will be further diluted and players with one eye on NLD on bench, this game has all the elements of a cup shock.

I think generally better teams do well on 3G. The passes always run perfect, so crisper passing and better first touches come to the fore.

Everyone plays on them now, so there's no unknown element like the old sand versions in the 80s.

There's an outdoor one at Hotspur Way too. I just could only find the photo of the indoor one.
 
I'm sure we will have an outdoor artificial pitch that we will have used for training.

Shouldn't take players long to adapt when the game starts.

I'm actually looking forward to this game, and I hope we see some of the youngsters getting a game and a few more on the bench.
