Was 1969. No thought that a year later Jimmy Greaves would be playing for West Ham.19 April 1968: Spurs 1 v 0 West Ham (Greaves), attendance 50,970.
I was in the NW corner of the Paxton Upper with my dad and some of his (mostly Spammer) mates from work. I can still remember the goal and the bus journey there and back. I can't remember much else of anything that's happened in the last 50 years though.
The Ramos era still makes me shudderRemember the clocks had changed, switched on tv to check got time right before setting off, saw on ticker tape that Ramos out, Harry in, heard more about Spurs plans on the radio driving up than had heard in the whole of the Ramos era, very happy day.
Sorry my friend, it wasn't that good a game ( )...I got locked out at that game. You bastard.
