2003 - A desperate time to be a Spurs fan

[Dougal]

Doing a little research for something I'm working on and i stumbled across this link. Top 100 Spurs moments if you were a fan inn 2003.

I know what you're thinking. Is Calderwood's goal against Barnsley in there? Well obviously...

Your 100 Greatest Spurs Moments: No.1

Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) Football Club is located in North London. The club is also known as Spurs. Tottenham's home ground is White Hart Lane. The club motto is Audere est Facere (To dare is to do).

So, post-2003, what needs to go in? And what needs to come out? (The Villa defeat in 94...)

 

[Nine while nine]

In terms of matches, any derby win is worthy of consideration, but this one stays with me for Lennon's assist for the second, Berbatov's impudence for the third and the sheer grief etched into the voice of the commentator screaming 'oh no' as the fourth goes in.



In terms of goals, there are some fantastic ones out there, with Son against Burnley, Dele against Palace and Lamela against Arsenal all excellent but I love this one, mostly because of what preceded it. Unfortunately, you don't see it in the clip but Rafa spent a good thirty seconds leading up to the free-kick, checking in with Kyle that he really wanted to take it because, you know, he was Rafa and, well, Kyle was Kyle. And then this happened. Marvellous stuff.

The Chelsea win, lennon with the winner. Was the miraculous king tackle in the same match?

Ajax, first win over Arsenal in years (Rose), 2-1 v Chelsea (Lennon), 5-1 v Chelsea league cup semi, 5-1 v Arsenal league cup semi, league cup win in 2008, Crouch v City, Inter at WHL, Kanoute goal v Everton, 9-1 v Wigan.

I know I'm forgetting loads.

It was. But people forget the following corner ended up in their goal I believe.

(The Villa defeat in 94...)

I’d been to a tonne of matches before it but that match, Gerry’s first, is my earliest memory of the Lane.

Should’ve known then what the next 27 years would hold in store…

lol at number 21 - Steffen Freund's only goal at Stevenage, pre-season, 2001

A few off the top of my head:

- Crouch goal vs. Man City.
- Moura hat trick Vs. Ajax.
- Face like deer face.
- Edman goal vs. Liverpool.
- Beating Man U 6-1 at OT.
- Beating Real Madrid 3-1 in the CL.

Crouch against City for me.

why was Walker even taking that kick? And the Wham game was a great shout.

Really weird that a Steven Carr goal against Man Utd was voted as a better moment than lifting The Double in 1961. It was a great goal, but a better moment than winning both the League AND FA Cup?

Bollocks

Extreme recency bias voted for by people who weren't alive in 1961.

By the way the obvious candidate to put on this is clearly the manager hunt in the summer of 2021. So many twists and turns, months of pure drama.

 

[spurs mental]

It seems apt to think of this game right now

VDV, just in general. Loved that guy.
