    Chelsea, for two reasons:

    1) Because I'd rather be the underdogs, I think Spurs would be the underdogs because they're very rarely in a final.
    and
    2) Because I'd love to see the look on Torres and Meireles faces then they get their runners up medal.

    Chelsea.

    (1) I think they will be easier to beat as Tottenham seem to do well against us.

    (2) The obvious one. Seeing the look on the face of the Ladyboy.

    It's been a while since we beat Tottenham so Chelsea is the obvious answer.

    Chelsea..
    Tottenham have some sort of edge over us...
    Besides..Chelsea have such a difficult run

    Champions league
    Qualification for the champions league
    F.a cup

    I think we know which they might choose to sacrifice

    Either is a force on their day, both have weaknesses. Think I'd rather have Chelsea, Kenny won't get flustered about Bale's pace, we can make Torres and Meireles suffer the ignomy of defeat in the final, and Di Matteo is an inexperienced manager which must give us an edge.

    Oh and wouldn't it be good if they went through in Europe as a distraction too............... In the unlikely event they bought, I mean won, the competition, would fifth get a CL spot? (not that we've even kept in the hunt for fifth)

    I'd also love to see spudz bale out in the semi, over-rated bunch of over-achieving caber ******s (no caber)

    Spurs ...

    Less baggage involved and they seem to be running out of steam.

    If it was guaranteed that we were going to win (which it isn't sadly), then I'd choose Chelsea!

    But I think Spurs will be an easier game because they'll be under a lot of pressure at the end of the season because they'll really be concentrating on ensuring their top 4 finish - which to spurs fans is more important than an FA Cup victory.

    + I can't imagine what it would be like to LOSE to chelsea w/ torres, meireles and their annoying fans. All said and done Spurs are more deserving of an FA Cup final place with the season they've had. ANd we're overdue a win against them

    Not really mid-season in 3 weeks but I know what you mean. Maybe because more people will watch it

    Why are the FA dick heads? Actually, don't answer that.

    First they change it so the semi is in Wembley, taking away the ...specialness(is that a word?) of being in Wembley for the final.

    Then they move the date of the final. It should be when the season is over, like it has been for years.

    I really did hate that decision, i still to this day, see no valid reason for it to get the nod.

    Spurs for me ,

    I'd dread to witness Torres scoring the winner in the final against us, and we all know he's capable of it .

    Many saying chelsea just so they can see the look on his face if we win, I feel the opposite , he will torture carra .
    If he doesn't then drogba will as usual in important games,

    Spurs seem to be slipping , and I don't fear any of there strike force, and I believe on the day our midfield can handle there's
    And Suarez will give there defence nightmares with his pace and constant running .

    And the final is on espn aswell

    Unsure if itv has rights to show it aswell, but I've already seen adverts for it to be shown on espn , which I believe is absolutely disgraceful
    All final should be on normal free tv for the whole country to watch .

    Yeah i thought the same when i saw the adverts, but ive checked it out, and BOTH ESPN and ITV will be showing it, which i thought wouldnt be the case, as espn is a pay per view channel isnt it, and if its on itv surely they will make no money. but it will be on both as ill checked itvs schedule

    Take Spurs, more cavalier than Chelsea therefor more likely to have an off day. Plus 'arry might have half his brain on the England job. Chelsea, more professional, less prone to off days,keep it tighter than Spurs, lot more cynical, hard nosed. Lot of their players have big game experience, be great to beat them, put one over on Torres and Meireles, but we'd have a greater chance against Spurs.

    Spurs, its been too long since we beat them. We should save our Chelsea beating for the end of the season when we stop them from getting CL football
