Tamworth assistant manager Neil Champelovier is relishing the prospect of his team's FA Cup third round match against Tottenham.

Ange Postecoglou's men will travel to The Lamb Ground in the New Year to take on the National League side, the lowest placed team in the FA Cup.

Speaking on talkSPORT Kick Off, Champelovier, who works as a PE teacher, said of the draw: “Absolutely incredible.

“I was literally on social media right before you called us, and the scenes in the clubhouse, they're small, but the scenes there were absolutely incredible.

“To get a home draw against one of the big six, we said we wanted one of the big six, whether it be a day away to get the experience or to bring them back to The Lamb for the fans and for the city itself.

“That's what we wanted and that's what they've given us, you couldn't have asked for much from a bigger game.”

Commenting on what Spurs can expect when they arrive at the fifth division team's ground, he added: “Well, firstly, they can expect a portable cabin as a changing room, no heating in there either.

“Artificial pitch, a little bit inclined, so the sort of thing we try to use to our advantage sometimes, especially in the league when the big teams come to The Lamb.

“It's not a particularly nice place for away fans, so yeah, it's not going to be a nice place.”
