Haven't seen this posted on here, so I thought I'd share a nice story about my fellow countrymen yids:
A couple of months ago two young Spurs supporters missed their first match at WHL (at home vs City) because of an overbooked plane. This sad story, presented in the national media, prompted Norwegian Spurs fans to raise about £2000 to send the two kids and their families to another game.
Someone else (can't remember who), however, sponsored flight, hotel and tickets for the Chelski game for these two kids - and Spurs arranged for them to have a stadium tour and meet some of our players - so they didn't need the £2000.
That's when the Spurs supporters came up with another idea on how to spend the money. Through the Norwegian supporters club, they got hold of 120 tickets for tomorrow night's Monaco game.
In collaboration with local schools in Tottenham, Hackney and Walthamstow, these 120 tickets were distributed to kids in some of the poorer neighbourhoods in the area. So tomorrow night, 100 local kids and 20 parents/guardians will attend what will for many be their first ever Spurs game.
The remaining £700 was donated to the kid's cancer ward in a local Oslo hospital.
Makes me proud to be a Spurs supporter!
