Odd request - I'm after a specific incident

''As a player, he was a midfielder who notably played in the Premier League for Ipswich Town and Tottenham Hotspur''.

Jason Dozzell - Wikipedia

Looks like you were right afterall

Quite easy to block out the fact he played for us.
I recall once, he got the ball in the centre circle at WHL, no one within 20 yards of him. He looked around for a teammate to stroke the ball to, and like that, he hoofed it towards the top of the East Stand.

Mostly Venables I think, then maybe a year or two under GF. My memory isn't that great these days TBH. We also had a Naybet, although he didn't do much for us

Naybet was instrumental in King being the player he turned out to be. He did far more than you think.

One of our most underrated signings.

What was the name of that Spanish kid we had, whose claim to fame was scoring from the half way line vs Arse in the Cup Winners Cup?

I reckon it was in the Venables era.

No Googling.

I said I reckoned it was in the Venables era but on second thoughts I think it was after that and was under Gerry Francis.

Yes you're right, yet another false memory I've had lol

I was today years old when I found out he wasn't Algerian. I don't know why, but I always thought he was from there or there abouts.
Maybe I was a kid and my dad told me and I never questioned it. My dad never fact checked a thing in his life.

It happens to the best of us fella. Just the other day I could've sworn Jason Dozzell played for Spurs back in the 90s. Turns out I was having a dizzy spell and he never played for us at all!

Careful everyone - his son plays for Ipswich I think, he may be on the same career path.

I always vaguely had him down as Moroccan!

 

[Mike81]

Looking on Wikipedia I see he was born in Ceuta, so as close to Morocco as possible without actually being from there.

Spurs before VAR was a free for all trolling game from the refs. The best one will always be Vertonghen's goal from his own half cancelled for offside

Only before VAR?

Yeah, where the doughnut lino thought he was being very clever in knowing the rules because there was only one player between Vertonghen and the goal when the ball was played (the Sunderland keeper had come up for a corner in injury time).

Unfortunately the twat forgot you can't be offside in your own half.

Spot on! Great defender and mentor (for King)

 

[Jarritos]

It's an incident I keep referring to in conversatuions because I see this sort of foul not given quite alot. Last night's Saka thing again reminded me of it. It's a terrible conning of the referee in my opinion. The penalty (I think) was given and scored.

You trying to be the Ty of the fighting cock?

But I know what you mean! Those calls can drive you crazy.

 

[Gif Rhys-Jones]
