1963 vs Burnley. Can't remember the score but we won. Days of Greaves, Gilzean.
Only regret is never winning the League since. Been to 2 League Cups and 2 F A Cups, but winning the League would be tops.

So did I, marched out at 4-2!
Still remember this game clearly. Was living near the junction of White Hart Lane and the Great Cambridge Road. Went with my dad ( I was 8) and along the way we picked up a friend of mine. It also happened to be his first THFC game. We stood in the Shelf, not far from the corner.....near the Paxton. Can, even now, vividly see Peters scoring at the Paxton Road end.
We did the same with my nephew's first game, he was only 3 or so. No chance of getting a milk crate through the gates now!
Years ago - there used to be small wooden steps leading up to the pitch from the terraces at the Paxton and Park Lane. If you got in the ground early enough, you could sit at the top of the one located right behind the goal.
Was that
The thing I remember about that game was the shit brown shirts Coventry were wearing?
Ah, I remember that. My dad lost a big bet because of that - he was doubly fuming.
That was 10 years to the day that they beat us in the cup final.
We could have got total revenge and exercised a demon.
But naaaah, its us ,so we messed up.
EDIT
No it wasn't.It was a few days out,but still...
He's bald now
Uefa Cup 1972 Red Star Belgrade 2-0 to the glorious Spurs I think the score was.
I remember being REALLY confused as a kid in the '70s that KEITH Osgood wasn't PETER Osgood.... and ironically, NOT ASGOOD!
Took me years to realise Peter Osgood never actually played for Spurs!
Sorry, I was VERY young (and clearly a bit thick) at the time!!
I lived in tottenham and had cousins who didnt live there but were very pro me supporting them and a spurs supporting best mate.
All that and Glenn hoddle!
My first game was at home to southampton in 1986. I remember metgod coming on and missing the winning penalty as for some reason we left early to avoid the crowds even though we lived a 10 minute walk away.

Yip your correct.. awful decision.. think Bent scored for us that day
Think this has been done several times over - but the all white kit in 1985-1987 did it for me, cementing various spurious links to North London. First started going in 1989-90. City at home. 1-1. Howells and then Colin Hendry.
