What was the first game you went to?

[caduka]

Well, when I saw Spurs the first time I wasn't too fond of a certain english club. My club in Austria was bought by Red Bull (twunts), so I stopped following them, and with the newly founded original team I never felt the same connection.
In 2007 I went on a trip to London with friends to watch a few games and I instantly fell in love with Spurs.
The game was the league cup against Blackpool, on the 31.10.2007. We won 2-0, goals by Keane and Chimbonda. I was in the shelf immediately felt a deep connection to the club, as I admired the self-irony of the fan base as well as the Lane itself. Since then Spurs are my team and basically it's the only team I follow/watch games. Since then many visits to the Lane followed and the connection deepened with every time I was there.

It was against woolwich but I don't know what year. I was still in single figures so maybe '82. I remember it was a draw but bugger all else.

Was at the game too. They gave us a tiny section of the Park End. A load of Spurs arrived late and had to go into the side standing enclosure, ( what is now the away end these days) and it started to kick off.

Excellent use of the word Twunt.

April 15th 1963 was when I lost my heart to this club (8 years old). Spurs vs Liverpool and guess the score....another 7-2 but in our favour this time . Jimmy Greaves scored four that day and became my idol. A few legends on the pitch then, Greaves,Mackay, White, Hunt and Yeats. Three Welshmen on the pitch too, Mel Hopkins and Cliff Jones for us and Allan Jones for the scousers.
A magical moment with the whole world (well so it seemed to me) a sea of Spurs supporters singing and cheering. Two of the greatest managers head to head, Nicholson and Shankly. Happy Days.....

Remember the clocks had changed, switched on tv to check got time right before setting off, saw on ticker tape that Ramos out, Harry in, heard more about Spurs plans on the radio driving up than had heard in the whole of the Ramos era, very happy day.
