DALE GIVEN SPUR BY FA

FA CUP: Tottenham v Rochdale Fifth-round replay, tomorrow, 7.45pm

ROCHDALE are using St George’s Park to prepare for their FA Cup clash with Tottenham at Wembley tomorrow.

But the FA have stopped short of letting the League One giant-killers use the actual pitch reserved for England – which is identical to the Wembley surface.

Boss Keith Hill (above) said: “We’re not allowed to train on the special England pitch and I don’t think we can sneak on! But the pitch we are using has the same dimensions as Wembley.”
