Millwall v Spurs FA Cup 1967 memories
Before the Match at the Den - Cockerel slaughtered in the centre circle and then paraded around the pitch on a Yardarm to the crowd cheering.

I'm a big proponent of finishing top four as the CL helps you keep your best players and is exciting to be in (this season excluded) but I would rather win the FA cup this season than I would finish top four, if it was one or the other. I actually see no reason why we ought not do both, but I certainly want us to put our best team out for this game. I am sure we will beat them comfortably if we do.
 
It's all very well murdering chickens in a ritualistic manner, but does that make you mental scary? My backward northern cousins must off upwards of 30 chickens a day, unprovoked, but they're too scared to come to London. I'm not sure that wholesale poultry slaughter is all it's cracked up to be.

Full strenght team, look to dominated from the off. They are a decent side so must show respect. There is no reason why we can't expect a win and look forward to a semi.

Because we're spurs

People have short memories. We had a similar game in the semi final against Portsmouth which was a foregone conclusion

A second strong Gent side should be a foregone conclusion

Spot on.

Hell, it even took us a bit of luck to squeeze through this far after that Wycombe farce.

Millwall, funnily enough like Wycombe, are on a long unbeaten run going into the game. They'll be alot more physical than Wycombe and have the better players. They've already beaten 3 Premier League clubs which will give them all the confidence in the word.

I think we will win but its not going to be a walkover and won't be as easy as the Fulham game. Fuck, I'd love it if it was, would be alot nicer in here come Sunday afternoon.

I am well aware this could turn into a tricky game. I just think we will win comfortably because Poch can focus all his energy into this game. It is not just a gut feeling. The players are confident and have been taught a few lessons by 'weaker' teams this season. All this talk of resting key players is laughable. Dropping Kane and playing Janssen? I understand maybe one or two midfield changes but Kane is guaranteeing two goals a game at the moment; he must play. I fear off field matters will get all the headlines though.

I wouldnt rest anyone. I may perhaps give Winks a start alongside Wanyama but that's about it.

I think Pochettino goes with Vorm in goal though.
