I think that's - quiet and shy.
Not everyone is a Greaves
My second favourite player of all time ... keep 'em coming lads, I love this thread!!
I've met him a couple of times, and I would say he is quiet and shy rather than miserable, I found him very polite.
and very reticent to talk about his time..............elsewhere.
If you glance quickly it looks like Ted Ditchburn is presenting Pat with a slimline record player, or a square laptop!

Found a programme from 1966 Spurs West Ham. This made me chuckle.

Who in their right mind at Atlet would have thought that sales would have taken off after sponsoring a football programme.Versus Manchester City 1982, cover page. That looks like Aston Villa.

At the end of the 1976 season, Spurs went on a tour. They came to Toronto to play the Metros-Croatia, who had Eusebio on their team. I took a bus from Kingston, went to the ticket office, explained where I was from ("Kingston, Jamaica?" the Croatian replied.) and I asked if I could meet the team after the game. So my scarf went into the dressing room and I mingled with them in a post match buffet. Left to right, Steve Perryman, Terry Neil (manager), Gerry Armstrong, Willie Young, Keith Osgood, Chris Jones, Glenn Hoddle, Ralph Coates, Barry Daines, Don Mcallister, Nick Stead (whom I spoke to on the field after the game), Jimmy Neighbour, Terry Naylor. I've missed a few as I can't remember the whole team now.

Companies would be the official match sponsor for the same reason that everyone pays to advertise. At that time almost all SPURS fans owned fork lift trucks. It was a no brainer for them to sponsor the club
They would have been the previous opponents
