The 1882 Movement have currently been given blocks 15 and 16 (the guys have asked for more blocks) for the U21 North London Derby at White Hart Lane on Friday 28th March. After taking over 1000 to Barnet last season for the away game, I suppose we should be looking to top that! I would be surprised if Arsenal didn't bring along some vocal support, so we can't let them out-sing us.

Anyone who went to Barnet will know how awesome a night that was, and hopefully this won't be far off that.

Absolutely anyone who can come, should come! As long as you want to stand and sing for 90 minutes, you'll be well and truly at home.

As always, 1882 will be meeting in the Bricklayers from 4pm to warm up our voices!

Ticket not yet on sale, but I'll add details to this post when it's been announced.

Good work! This will be awesome. Unfortunately I can't take the afternoon off as I usually do, but the evening will still be brilliant.

Absolutely no idea. Might browse their forums when I'm not at work and see if they've got any plans.

Did they for the other games? I can see this being something most clubs do soon.

Their home game at Barnet was almost all Spurs. A few hundred Arsenal, but not standy singy types.

However a few years ago we played in the FA Youth Cup and they brought at least 2,000 (total attendance was nearly 20,000).

I do hope they bring some fans, I just hope we bring more!

The more I think about it, the more I could see this being the beginning of the end with modern football. If everyone decides that the premiership just isn't worth the money and all start to go to the reserves, that could be it. It could be the thing that kicks the clubs into check in regards to ticket prices. Do you know if other clubs are doing this yet or are we the first in the prem?

I'm not sure there are any other clubs that do is as an official, organised thing (may be wrong there). But the other clubs are missing out. 1882 is just another reason I love Spurs.

Honestly, any Spurs fans who like an atmosphere and don't go to 1882 games are missing out massively. Most of my best football memories from the last 2 years are 1882 games.

Apparently the 4 blocks we've been allocated (over 1,000 seats) have nearly sold out!

Arsenal are bringing a few fans too (in a segregated away area) so we need as many as possible to make it a cracking atmosphere.

Edit: Just seen someone on twitter has said he was told by ticket office that 200 away tickets have been sold so far. These won't all be there to create an atmosphere, but it's a decent amount.

Still no Underhill though!

I love when you see an old guy at 1882 (there was an old guy in the above video)

When I got the tickets I thought there might be an off chance that we might see Lamela but seeing Vlad will be cool. Not that I care, it's all about being with fellow yids who want to make as much noise as possible.
