My dad passed away this week after a thankfully short battle with cancer aged 75
Spurs are synonymous with my dad, he first took me to a game when I was 7, first memories were Terry McDermott scoring a screamer against us in a cup tie
The early 80s were the best time of my life, me and my dad going to every home game watching that great team, went to 81 82 87 and 91 finals with him but the biggest joy was 84
Going home and away to Anderlecht was amazing, the 84 final getting to the ground early as from memory it was pay at the gate , being behind the goal when the final pen was saved, my dad and me hugging going mad is still the best feeling I have ever had, my dad told me before he died it was the happiest day of his life
Dad thanks, thanks for the memories, thanks for spurs, thanks for everything, it won't be the same without you
