Most precious Spurs item you no longer have

A few years back Robbie keane scored a hatrick against somebody (I can't even remember who it was but possibly Coventry ???), anyway, at the final whistle Kasey Keller turned round and booted the match ball straight up into the park lane upper just as me and my mate were shuffling along our row to exit. We both sort of caught it and thought "fuck me we've got Robbie Keane's hatrick ball". Now prior to this game Keano had been on fire, scoring plenty, and had just added another three. Being a tad supersticious, on the way up to NP we started to wonder if we were doing the right thing nicking the magical hatrick ball, but sort of talked ourselves into to keeping it.

Subsequently next couple of games Keane drew a blank. this carried on into the next couple until eventually we knew we had to return the ball to it's rightfull owner as we had somehow taken his mojo with the theft of the magical hatrick "orb". The following game we took the ball to the West stand foyer and handed it in with the strict instructions that it must be returned to Keane as it was his hatrick ball etc.(without explaining that his mojo wouldn't return if it wasn't as we knew we'd sound like the stupid ****s we were). Sure enough keane was soon back scoring. (can't remember if he scored that day but if not presumably because the steward didn't get the ball to him until after the game)

I'd have kept it.

My most precious Spurs item was the old Tottenham goalkeeper shirt. Bright orange and bright sky blue stripes, with Walker 1 on the back. This was my favourite shirt, I have lost it in the house somewhere! Im sure if I spent a good few hours looking for it I could find it, but it is lost for now!

but this are still in the days when we use about 4 or 5 different balls right?

I suppose it's the last ball played with when the whistle blows that counts.

Memories. memories and more memories.

One of my favourites was my mate & I crawling through the legs of the Tottenham faithful queuing the turnstiles at Wembley 80-81 cup final to get in. We didn't have tickets and took our chances as little nippers. We got through and in to watch the game for free.

There's loads of others but that one felt great!

 

[Defsta]

Gary Lineker's shirt with signature from '91-'92 season and that was my first Spurs game wich I saw :up:

 

[Kurtzen]

Ahh, Grandfather. His memories, anecdotes, presence.....took me to my initiation, Spurs vs Man Utd over four decades ago. I owe my 'dis-ease' to him, or maybe his father? Great-grandfather was a follower of this strange religion we have in the 1890's.

By the time he retired from visits to the Lane he had progressed to No.2 in the season ticket allocation, sitting behind/above TV gantry...late 70's. Anyone on here remember Bill?

 

[ossibissa]

a shirt from glenn hoddle sometime in the mid 80's that got lost in house moves.

 

[tRiKS]

my 90/91 season home shirt. (pre-cup final) lost it 4 years ago. I used to wear it under my football shirt for the team i played for on a Saturday. Lost it in the changing rooms at Toulmin Drive in st albans so if anyone's got it please let me know, i'd pay a hefty ransom... you can tell it's mine because of the blim burn in the front from my uni days. dirty puff smokeing pikey that i was.

Other than that i've got all my old stuff still... 1970's sweatbands... i think the first ever branded sweat bands made by the club. got given them by my step brother.

In the eighties my mum gave away about 400 Spurs programmes I had collected. Among them was one from the 67' Chelsea Final. In truth though, it was the John White Memorial programme that I most regret her giving away. It was 'all white'. Can anyone remember who we played that night?

So glad i am not alone. Had a programme collection that my dad started in 1960 that included programmes from the 50's. All kept nicely in a box but the box disappeared about 20 years ago!!! Eek

Started a new collection after that but would have liked to still have the old ones.

 

[paxtonyiddo]

I sold the wimbledon programme from our 1999 semi final second leg worthington cup final at a car boot for £5 cos i was skint!

Sounds like a good deal considering i only bought it for £3 or whatever but just after we had won the comp i sent it recorded delivery to the club and they sent it back signed by all the players as i had asked for. Gutted.

Stevenoz

we played a Scotland select 11 and lost 6-2. Both Alan Glizean and Denis Law scored for Scotland with Tony Marchi hitting a 30-yardeer for us. I still have the program if you want any further info

 

[ghetto_spur]

The tight fitting Kappa navy top - i gave it to my mate in Canada because he promised to love spurs forever.

I had it in medium with ghetto on the back, i looked great in that.

Convinced many a lady to support the mighty spurs, I wonder if I can get another...anyone know anywhere?

Not e bay!

What a story - nice one.:grin:
I think the hattrick in question came against Everton, but I can't be sure.

Well, you won't get mine as it is my favourite as well.
Personally I still miss my Hummel "Tottenham Hotspur" gold-engraved match boots from the late eighties. Hit my first senior goal in those, wore them out completely and somehow must have thrown them out expecting new ones to appear in the shops... never happened. Tragedy...
