My earliest memories of watching spurs were during the MJ era, cant seem to recall the first ever spurs match I watched.

Was also at that Villa game. we scored those 3 goals in the last 11 minutes. Unreal.
Always thought that Hodd got 2 and Jonah 1. Might be wrong though.
I have just googled it and stand corrected-Hod did score 2 and Jones got one.I also got the year wrong, it was 1979.The advancing years have clearly played havoc with my memory.
It never started with a game. It started with the 1978 panini sticker pack with Ricardo Villa, and Ossie Ardiles.
Something about Ricky, the kit, it looked special. Some how magical. Then I saw hoddle score a goal on match of the day and I was in. Went to my first game after two years of nagging my totally uninterested dad to take me. Would have been 1980 and I was 6 .
I can't even recall the exact first game. My freind Chris *twenty years my senior )said he saw the Hendrix Experience in Kent in 67 and it was like seeing colour tv in a black and white world. I felt that about the Argentines at Spurs.

Was also at the Southampton game, where we were losing 3-0 at half-time. Got back to 3-3 then Jonah hits the past in the last minute. Thinking he's scored...he turns away in triumph. If he'd stayed alert, he would have tapped in the rebound.
Yeah I remember Gordon Strachan doing laps of the pitch celebrating with Dion Dublin
Jan 1 1972 away at Palace. 1-1, Chivers free kick.
Grew up in Bromley so went to Palace alot from 1970 till I moved away in about 1978.

I only know this because I had a meeting at the PFA with him. As I walked in through the door he caught my bemused expression. I think he's used to it with peeps from our generation "Yes, don't worry, it's me - I've changed a bit"
Mate what ever happened to Keith Osgood? Scored a few pens for us.
Retired from senior football at 30.
11 of his 14 goals for us were from the spot.

I went to the Liverpool friendly in Baltimore back in like 2012 when Charlie Adam lunged in on Gareth Bale. The most boring 0-0 I can remember seeing, it was so hot too.
