History Tottenham Boys - We Are Here

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Anyone remember Billy Bonds testimonial ...me and my mate we were 14 years old ,everyone else was 25 plus we met at Liverpool street 70 spurs it was all proper spurs ...a night of mayhem ...fuck it i was hooked :)

That adrenaline rush was like nothing I had ever experienced.

You never knew if you were going to be in a home end 20 handed (midlands/north) or in the 100s/1000s (I'm thinking Woolwich).
 
I guess all my shenanigans were gambling related when I was 16 through 25 . Lot of fun and I look back on it fondly so I am in no position to be judgemental
That’s fair. We all have shenanigans. Mine was to fill myself with as much narcotics as possible and dance like a twat all night. So I should steer clear of casting aspersions.
Each generation had its thing.

I spent my time driving around the M25 and breaking into warehouses to dance to repetitive beats in my late teens.
Which then evolved into spending weekends in a twilight world that really started just as most people went to bed.

I imagine had I been born 15 years earlier me and my crowd of mates would have found something different to get into.
Same here. Not the M25. Generally the outskirts of Glasgow, waiting for my beeper to go off whilst trying not to spill my poppers and rolling a j on the gatefold cover of Love by The Cult.

We couldn't afford drugs so I suppose football was our 'release'. Didn't really need chemical stimulation after a big away day.

We didn’t have much either

£5 a week doesn’t go far but a pint of dodgy Watneys bitter was about 10p

We used to take Watneys Party 7s to parties and the hard part was opening it!

Tartan Bitter was better!
 
Used to bump into one of their chaps quite regularly at the old ground but not seen him in ages.

Richmond Spurs were a proper lot.
They( Richmond /twickenham spurs)done chavs top lot in a toe to toe including the chap now in the far east on there own one year..also caused havoc at Brightons old ground once if I recall correctly.got to know a few of them over the years ..
