Congratulations to Daniel and the club on the new stadium
We also bought Paul Stewart for £1.7m around the same time, which was another huge fee back then!
You forgot to mention his cracker against Coventry.One diving header against Liverpool aside that was money wasted.
Mods, how about we make this the thread title?Congratulations to Daniel and the club on the new stadium
Oh that is a beaut!!You forgot to mention his cracker against Coventry.

What a goal but what the f**k was Erik the Viking doing on their first goal? I never remember him making too many mistakes besides the horror show v Forest on his debut. Maybe nostalgia has pegged him as better than he was in my mind.
My memory tells me Erik had spells when he was prone to errors throughout his Tottenham career but he was also brave, a superb shot stopper and above all not Bobby Mimms so you couldn't help liking him.What a goal but what the f**k was Erik the Viking doing on their first goal?

Stewart was a very good midfielder with us after a poor start as a striker from memory. The season we won the FA Cup, he was outstanding when Venables switched him. I remember being very disappointed when he left so my recollection was that he was easily in our first eleven. Sad story.

You'll be relieved to know your memory's not that bad!funny what the memory does to you, i thought it was a diving header against Liverpool.
Just found it on YouTube. Wasn’t even as far out as I remembered! Ah, time, memories, old age....
Around 2.18
I seemed to remember it being a rocket diving header
I was wrong
Lol, scroll up! Great minds think (and forget) alike!!!
I knew it wasn't diving, but I'd have definitely called it edge of the box...funny the way the memory can twist things!

Love seeing this old footage, brings back great memories of my first few years having a season ticket.You forgot to mention his cracker against Coventry.
The guy deserves his own chant and potentially a statue.
He's been with us since I was 7 years old and I'm now 25.
Have grown up, and basically lived, entirely during his reign and the transformation has been exceptional.
From being a child who got the tinkle taken out of them for supporting 'a mid table side' and being the only Spurs supporter amongst United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea glory hunters to a young teenerager who was always told 'You'll never get Champions League' and 'You'll never build your ground' as we'd started to sketch out the original blueprints - to You'll never challenge for a title' as I was coming into adulthood - and now it's 'You still haven't won anything'.
Watch this space motherfudgers.

On RedCafe they have a thread on our new stadium and all they talk about is our empty trophy room. They're obviously all born after Sky invented football and probably not even old enough to have experienced their treble in 99.
No, they are just football fans!

Its not just on RedCafe, the 'joke' about empty trophy room is everywhere. To be fair, this is our longest trophy drought since the war so we really could do with winning something sometime soon.....On RedCafe they have a thread on our new stadium and all they talk about is our empty trophy room.
