Whilst searching for something else I came across this video of Ossie Ardiles testimonial against Inter Milan in which Diego Maradona guested for Spurs. Some lovely Hoddle moments too. I haven't seen it posted before so here it is. Enjoy.

I knew he played in that match but had never seen the clip before.

Ta for that!

There's a lovely photo

of Maradona in a Spurs shirt in Hoddle's early biography "Spurred To Success" (bought it for 10p in a charity shop!)

Would love a massive poster of that!!

Thanks for the link BTW!

Remember being there, couldn't believe I was seeing The Hod and Maradona, in a Spurs shirt, playing together. Please God send us another Hoddle !!!! :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

I have the full game on dvd and i must say Hoddle was the best player we have ever had in terms of how he reads the game could u ever see Gazza or Ginola paying cb you must be good to do that.

This entire game was downloadable in the internet as a torrent awhile back on another Spurs site, they offer a lot of torrents, can't remember the exact name now though. Gah...imagine if we really could have had Maradonna. He seemed to fit in with ease.

damn, oh what could have been Diego, he was close to joining us when Ardiles was in charge, bit late in his career, but, Klinsman came late to us too.

good watch - I've never forgotten how good Hod was :)

Although I grew up with Greavesie as my childhood hero - Glenn's now and I'm sure will always be my favourite-ever player -
