Can anyone find the video of when we beat Chelsea at home 2-1, with the 'Eye of the Tiger' music in the background???????

Id have to say the 5-1 against Arsenal and 2-1 vs Chelsea as both bought me very close to tears.

Couldn't have been more proud being a spurs fan on those days.

Being at WHL for first home game with Ossie and Ricky playing - with the ticker tape welcome that was synonymous with the Argentinian World Cup.

We were the leaders of the pack then, with Keith Burkinshaw an innovative manager who had a team that played in the complete opposite of his personality. Played football the Spurs way and got the results to go with it.

Tottenham 5-1 Arsenal
Tottenham 2-1 Chelsea

Was in Block 35 for both of these matches, will look for my video I took of the 5-1 game when it was 4-1 and the crowd were singing Que Sera Sera, then all of a sudden my camera freezes, the crowd goes silent and freezes then everyone is jumping and Steed has scored the 5th, at this point some random bloke I think 2 rows behind grabs my phone and screams into it! Classic!

Most of mine have been mentioned already. I'd also add the 99 Worthington Cup win, even though the match was poor, but because i was there.

And the last game at Highbury. Even though we should have won it, it really felt like a true London derby that day, and there was so much passion involved. The goal we scored really upset Arsene Wenger and who can forget the faceoff with Martin Jol? I really wanted the big man to knock him out. Thats what North London Derby's are all about.

Theres also the cup victory against Liverpool in the FA Cup quarter final in 95. Nobody expected us to win that game, and it truely highlighted just how good Klinsmann and Sheringham were together. So good was our performance, Liverpool applauded our players off the pitch.

There's no footage of it i doubt, before the advent of camera-phones, but me a lad i went to school with, Daniel Benton, running along Tottenham High Road trying to keep up with the 1991 FA Cup bus :dance:

I remember following it for miles, dodging in and out the crowd, people sat on the rooves of shops, and it all congregated outside the town hall. I remember finding a good spot over the road, near one of the concrete bollard thingies and the whole crowd singing then Venables strolls out with Mabbutt and the tin and the whole place erupted. Immense moment, loved it.

Other than that, if i had to pick a goal i went mental over (aside from the obvious stonkers, belters and miracles) was this one:

The final against the Chavs and of course the 5-1 demolition of the scum are the two best moments for me. I was only born in 1992, followed Spurs since around 98 so it's not like I have memories of winning the cups in the 80's, or even 1991.

4-3 against Sheffield Wednesday on the opening day of 1994/95 season. Typical Spurs, all out attack and a sham of a defence. Klinsmann header on his debut BOOM!!!!

4-4 Against Arsenal. This had been an absolute travesty of a season, only 1 win and looking at getting beaten 4-2 despite putting in a good performance. JJ steps up and curls in an absolute beauty to give us hope (he never seemed to get much credit for that goal) then Modric off the post and LENNON IS THERE!! I was jumping up and down on my sofa, all my mates gutted because they hate Spurs and bum Arsenal.

Neilsen's header against Leicester in 1999. I was old enough to remember this properly, having only hazy memories of the 1991 cup final. Looked like the game was dying out but little Allen pops up to send me jumping around my living room.

And finally.... Jan 1996, Spurs 4 Man United 1.

I always watch these games with my dad, who is a United fan. We absolutely destroyed them that day.

I've never celebrated a goal (at home, at least) like I have for Lennon's equaliser in the 4-4 against Arsenal last season.

Ricky Villa winner for me.
I suppose the most important thing for Spurs in my lifetime was the91cup final winbut that was muted because of gazza's injury and because it was an own goal by Des Walker who should have been a Spur but that's another story.
That game probably saved Tottenham as we know it because financially things really were desperate.
The 3-1 semi final was fun though.

This is the goal that made me want to play football and confirm Hoddle as my absolute football hero...

I went out and tried so hard to become a footballer like Hoddle, shame I ended up in goal, and no where near as good!

Beating Chelsea 2-1 at the lane after all those years, beating them 5-1 in the cup semi. Beating Arsenal 5-1, West Ham 4-3 at Upton Park everyone was hysterical rather than the usual celebrating! My 1st game in 88 on the shelf and being so close to my idol Chris Waddle.
Any game in the 90/91 season that featured Paul Gascoigne, still the best player ive ever seen.
Oh and of course the cup win verus Chelsea, nearly cried that day!

When Berbs scored 4, that was another quality day.

Another favourite of mine, not sure if it's been mentioned, JJ's equaliser in the last minute against Arsenal. We were completely outplayed that day, but what a quality moment.

There's so many coming to me now. Will try find a few videos.

Edit - The 125th Anniversary night, don't think it's been mentioned yet
