    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Just 5 weeks until the book is released (though pre-sales are very open) so reviewing Chapter 7 about the 96/97 season titled 'Frustration' I spoke to Gerry Francis, David Howells and Paul Hawksbee but most enjoyably our very own @thfcsteff who shared a lovely story about about his experiences...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Happy Monday everyone! Just for immediate relevance...Villa Park was an absolute graveyard for us in the 90s....we didn't win any of the 11 games we played there - only Old Trafford was more fruitless. How times change! This week (5 weeks until the book is released) I'm previewing 95/96 season...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    That's right - he really doesn't have many good memories of his time with us (that was all under Venables) at all. I didn't have enough space to go into much detail about him but he's quite affectionately remembered by the fans. He joined us from Liverpool in 87/88 to be a regular starter but...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Happy Monday folks....just 6 weeks now until publication so previewing Chapter 6 'Walking in a Klinsmann Wonderland' all about the incredibly chaotic, enjoyable yet heart-breaking 94/95 season. In this chapter I include memories from Julie Welch, 'Tottenham on My Mind' Blogger Alan Fisher...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Pretty good summation. Important to remember that this was a far more innocent age and there weren't forums, social media, podcasts and Athletic long-reads to pore over the minutiae of every player's every performance so hard to know how all the above would stack up today particularly once a...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    That is some considerable effort to have got there! I watched back the highlights of this game while researching. Not much you can reliably tell from a 7-minute clip but it looked like, despite the state of the pitch, that we just passed Oldham to death and took our goals, scored at really...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    That's a lovely story and I'm not surprised that you both remember it so affectionately 30 years on! It was Easter Saturday and Teddy's long-awaited return having last played in mid-October. Having won at Everton the week before (our first league win since 28th December!) we thought it might...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Morning everyone, This week a preview of the 93/94 season titled 'Ossie's Nightmare' This was a particularly traumatic season in which we nearly got relegated! Ossie had returned as manager bringing Steve Perryman with him but the club was fractious following Venables' sacking in May. We...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Yes you're right - Oldham home Sept '93 having had a promising breakout season the year before. He talked about his subsequent injuries that stemmed from this one sadly. When I used to write out my England XI in the back of my school exercise books throughout 93 it was always between him and...

    Well done @tommysvr - tremendous work I've only quickly looked through but looks like an amazing resource.

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Thank you! I managed to name check every one of the 109 players who appeared in a first team game throughout the decade and yer man Deano was well up on that list. Didn't quite have the space to reference the incredible goal line clearance he made right in front of me at the Paxton End in a...

    Is Gascoigne Going to Have a Crack? 90s Spurs book (15th April 2024)

    Just giving this a shameless bump as just 8 weeks until release now. I'm doing a weekly chapter preview on twitter which I thought I'd share on here to see if it brings up any memories. This week previewing 92/93 titled 'Hope Springs Eternal' and relates to the wonderful spring period when...

    ***TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs Brentford OMT***

    Hi @DaveT316 - sorry only just seen this. It was David Coote wasn't it? Unbelievable that he didn't send Norgaard off! Genuinely can't understand why - sometimes we overreact when a player is on a yellow and then makes one or two more minor fouls that maybe don't warrant a second card but 4...

    Don't get me started...it's definitely one of my biggest irritations with modern football (and I have a few!). Though us and Liverpool historically might have had a #5 in midfield too. pre squad numbers which obviously distorted this further Clough at Forest liked a #6 in midfield (Hodge or...

    Squad Numbers 2022/23

    What would say are our most notorious squad numbers above 11? For me its 14 (Ginola, Modric), 18 (Klinsmann, Defoe) and 23 (Carrick and Eriksen) so therefore the criteria is to give a number that at least 2 'legends'/cult heroes have worn.

    Can you name all Spurs PL players - quiz time

    187.....got a few of the really obscure ones....with a bit more time I'd have got most of the rest following some logic.

    Victimpool FC - Klopp leaving, grown men crying

    I think what they've been really smart about is replacing players early - ironically they probably only got Diaz in January because of our interest but by doing so they're ahead of the game now for a Salah replacement; likewise Jota has already been in place helping the transition from Firmino...
