Highly likely that Spurs will go on to win this tie of course, but that was as entertaining as it gets in the first half. Well played Rochdale. Pochettino not a happy bunny

Now Rochdale hit the post!

Crazy first half in the Spurs v Rochdale game tonight. Currently 1-1. Spurs denied two goals by VAR, one of them a penalty!

I'm talking more in principle, rather than what may or may not be practical. I'm also not suggesting we should announce a referendum on the outcome in advance. We (the government) can/could decide to do that once the negotiations are finished.

That road opens after 10:30 am

I don't agree with having a second referendum on whether or not to leave the EU. However, I am in favour of having a first referendum on the outcome of the negotiations.

Cheers for the link. Looks like it's mainly roads to the north and east that are closed up to / beyond kick off time, so we should be ok driving up from the south

Cheers. Ended up booking a driveway close to stadium using https://www.justpark.com (nothing close by on yourparkingspace.co.uk).

Only an hour out, but that'll do nicely

Anyone know how plentiful parking is in the area? Will probably drive up. I suppose one can always park in the town centre and walk from there

Excellent.... Best day & time of the weekend for me

Alfie Jones being lined up for a berth on the bench vs Stoke instead of Bednarek maybe?

...

I had Sims in my starting line up for the Burnley game. Surely he has to start vs Stoke? Would also play Gabbi instead of Guido in the hope that his goal will spark a run of confidence and form. McCarthy Cedric - Stephens - Hoedt - Bertrand Hojbjerg - Lemina Sims - Tadic - Boufal Gabbi Subs: Forster, McQueen, Bednarek, JWP, Romeu, Redmond, Guido

...

As does Sims, who I'd have picked over Redmond.

First time Redmond has started since our slight improvement in form (last started on Boxing Day)

...

Excellent. Means we could be only 6 points behind Leicester this evening

Why the **** can't they at least say what the permutations and options are?

Any chance someone could start a match build-up thread so we can discuss this weekend's game?

On reflection, I don't think the half marathon taking place would prevent a 14:30 kick off. The half marathon is due to start at 9:30 am and the DW Stadium is at the 4 mile mark (Route Map: http://www.runwiganfestivals.co.uk/docs/Half%20Route%20B&W.pdf) . The race starts and finishes in the town centre, so should all be done and dusted by lunchtime. Sunday at 14:30 would be perfect for me. Bring it on!

I'm inclined to disagree. Leicester beating Chelsea at home wouldn't be as newsworthy as another premier league team being knocked out by a third division team. Yes, there's probably more probability of Leicester beating Chelsea than Wigan beating us, but TV companies tend to prefer the potential of a giant killing in cup games, ergo I'd be surprised if our game wasn't the BBC's first pick. (After all, it's not the BBC's job to chase ratings and thus simply pick one of the 'big 6'... ahem...)
