    1984 - Spurs vs Anderlecht in the UEFA Cup final.

    I was 14 years old and at the match with my cousin who was 15. After the penalty shootout the crowd were going mental and we were pulled over the barriers by a copper because we were getting crushed against the barrier. My cousin lost his shoe in the process. We saw the cup presentation sitting on the side of the pitch :) My cousin had to travel all the way home with one shoe !

    Amazing night.

    God I feel old now !

    Agreed here. One of the greatest players ever in the English league.
    He is the reason I am a Spurs supporter.
    Pure genius.

    Here is my favourite.

    That would be the one i picked ... i was 19 at the time and queued up with mates for hours before kick off to get in whilst one of us run across the road to the corner pin to bring over the pints to keep ourselves refreshed.

    When we scored our equaliser near the end i went mental and duly got kicked out by the police ... went back inside the ground again in time for the start of the penalty shootout ... great stuff

    I chose Hoddle only because I could not find any clips of Gary Doherty :D

    I did find this though which is a bit strange:

    Ahh yes this is my fav memory moment too. I was 12 & remember being in bed listening to BBC Radio Long wave on my folks radio under my duvet. My dad heard the crackling and came in to my bedroom..we both listened to the end of the game, Great memories. :)

    Gazza's 1991 semi-final goal here always gives me a smile too COYS

    My earliest memories are when: Spurs beat United 3-1 at White Harte Lane and I am fairly sure Teddy got the goal for United that evening.

    Another one which was great was when Alan Nielsen headed in the winner in the last minute of the Worthington cup final against Leicester at the Old Wembly.

    My Dad took me to see Limerick United v Spurs in a friendly in the eighties (Market's Field I think). There were thousands there. Hoddle and Archibald played and scored I think (3 or 4-1 to Spurs was the result if I remember). Was sitting on the sideline and nearly got a boot in the head from Chris Hughton as he came out to kick a long ball. Magic day.

    I was in Limerick as well and still have the programme also. I also remember Spurs playing in Musgrave Park in Cork in the early 90s. Think that they won 3-0. Classic moment at half-time as they had a car on the halfway line as some car company were presenting it to the Lord Mayor or something. Gazza jumped in and locked the doors so they couldn't restart the game.

    Earliest memories. Saw two in my youth before leaving Tottenham for Cork. First was Martin Peters making his debut - only sorry that I missed the legendary Jimmy Greaves who went to West Ham as part of the same deal. Peters scored in the first half and we led 1-0 at half-time but lost 2-1 in the end (must try and check some day to see if my memory is correct). The other was the Youth Cup final second replay, also against Coventry. We won 1-0 with a cracking goal from Graeme Souness - just before he went back to Scotland in a huff

    Next game was as a teenager in the late 70s when I travelled over on the ferry to watch us take on Forest. I was standing in the Park Lane and Hoddle won it with a cracker at our end in the third minute. Fairly sure that it was his around his 21st birthday. This one is actually new enough to be on Youtube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1p1uk3mWs8

    Anyway that's enough - I could keep going all day.........

    I saw Klinsmann score on what memory serves me was his debut - against Shelbourne in a pre season friendly here. :)
