Tottenham should be banned from playing at their new stadium until next season, says Cardiff boss Neil Warnock
The 70-year-old doesn't want the Bluebirds' relegation rivals to gain any advantage playing at Spurs' new ground
CARDIFF boss Neil Warnock has urged the Premier League not to allow Tottenham to play at their new ground until next season.
The ex-QPR manager doesn't want his side's relegation rivals to gain an advantage should they play at the 62,000-seater Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Bluebirds have lost twice against Spurs this campaign - one in October - and the other in Wales yesterday.
Mauricio Pochettino's men eased to a 3-0 win to lift them up to second spot in the table, while Cardiff now languish just three points above the drop zone.
Cardiff were scheduled to play the North London side at their new stadium, but ongoing delays meant the match took place at Wembley.
There is still no official date when Spurs will play their first game at their new home, though it is expected they host matches before the end of the season.
But Warnock, 70, has urged Prem chiefs to block this, he said: "The league should enforce they play at Wembley for the rest of the season.
"There shouldn’t be any chance of an advantage for our opponents. It’s not our fault – we should have been playing at the new stadium ourselves.
"I think they should step in now and rather than seven or six weeks, they should make it until the end of the season now and enforce it now.”
Three of Cardiff's rivals are yet to play Tottenham away, with Newcastle and Crystal Palace to face them in February and March respectively, while Huddersfield travel to the capital in April.
