Tottenham boss Redknapp dismisses Chelsea moaning over Cup semi timing

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has told Chelsea to stop moaning about the timing of their FA Cup semifinal.

Chelsea were fuming after the Wembley clash was set for 6pm to suit TV, leaving Roberto Di Matteo's side 72 hours to prepare for Barcelona in the Champions League.

But Spurs boss Redknapp said: "I wouldn't think it would make a huge difference. You're still going to get a night's rest. It's a strange time but the TV decide now, it's all about the money.

"They'll have a go, they have got a strong squad so they can rotate. They will be strong whoever they play."
