Was trying to do a bit of digging on the net when I came across this. Our team v Braga March 2007. We won over there 2-3.
Tottenham: Robinson, Chimbonda, Dawson, Gardner, Young-Pyo Lee, Lennon, Tainio (Huddlestone 74), Zokora, Malbranque, Berbatov, Keane.
Subs Not Used: Cerny, Stalteri, Ghaly, Defoe, Taarabt, Charlie Lee.
Our team is head and shoulders above this team now
Anyway reason I was digging was to see could I find any reference to Chelsea. Im sure I recall we played Braga at a silly time like 9pm on a Thursday night and had to play Chelsea Saturday lunchtime and they didnt move the game. Does anyone remember this?

Typically Spurs, always the money

it's not a bad spurs side that you know. take gardner out and that's a top 8 team now.

Tainio never got good enough chance, I like him

Yes I recall this. Spurcat is wrong on this occasion. We were never offered the chance to change the time of the game. We had played on the Sunday or even Monday, then again on the Thursday, and a lunchtime kick off on the Saturday v Chelsea. Being good Spurs and all that, we hardly kicked up even a stink.

how would it have been good for Spurs mate?

Would swap the front line as they were playing then for what we have today but, other than that, the current team is much stronger. Interesting that Defoe was on the bench. Some things never change!

Also didn't realise Taarabt had been around so long. Always felt he wasn't given a chance with us but quietly pleased he's not proved to be much better with QPR

Taino was a legend!
Remember when he riled up Dogbark in the CC final by pointing to the scoreboard
