Spurs switch tie after City threat

Tottenham's Carling Cup tie at home to Manchester City next month has been moved back a day after Kevin Keegan threatened to play a reserve side.

City had faced playing three games in six days, culminating in the Spurs clash on 2 December.

But following an appeal to the Football League the game will be played a day later.

Arsenal, who are also at home, have agreed to switch their cup tie with Wolves from Wednesday to Tuesday.
