Poch Has Asked the FA to Intervene...

in regards to the state of Rochdale's pitch. He thinks it's of an unacceptable quality and unsafe for the players.

It relay their pitch, win the game and dig it up and take it back with you.

It’s the only fair thing to do

1. What are the odd of the FA listening to Poch's request?
2. Is there a playable neutral pitch in the area?

Oh go on... you're not thinking are you?
Just pay Rochdale to throw the game and we can all go home to Wembley.

I want us to progress as much as the next Spurs fan - I reckon our name is on the cup this year - but I don't agree with moving the game.

The beauty of the cup is that playing on crummy pitches is a leveller. Thus you get Cupsets. We need to suck it up (oh and don't play Kane with his dodgy ankles!)

Not a Spurs fan, but Poch is absolutely correct! The picture of the pitch makes it look like garbage.

Perhaps this has already been suggested:

Rochdale mgmt. should agree to play the game either at Wembley or at the WHU home location. They should be listed as the home team and get most of the revenue from what will surely be a larger crowd than would fit into their own "shoe-box" stadium.

Otherwise, the FA might declare their field unplayable and FORCE them to play somewhere else.
