I remember Preston beating us in the FA cup - around 1968. It may even have been the 4th round - the Spurs fans were chanting " Cmon you non triers "
----------------------------------------------------------------------
My memory - it was 1966 - here is the video of the match https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=js3jD8DtFfA
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeh that's the game. I remember a wall collapsed.

Did you go with Sandy?

I went to Deepdale for a cup tie in 1965 or 1966 I think it was, sadly Spurs lost 2-1.

Train got wrecked on the way back. Bloody Tottenham supporters.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What was it like back in those days - did you get a load of pessimistic tiiiits tipping us to never win another game?

Yeh we had a few moaners where I stood on the Shelf even back then. But the modern Spurs fans win hands down for moaning.

I won’t have enough points for an away ticket, but fancy going - do you reckon they will sell out the home end and will I be faaaacked if my southern accent is discovered?

They don’t usually sell out or anywhere near but might sell out for this.
I actually sat in the home end last time we got them in the cup, can’t remember the year but I know Robbie Keane got a few goals and it was ok, got talking to a few next to me and when they found out I lived there and married a Preston girl they let me off

When I went in 65, we all mixed together. I remember chatting to Preston fans all match. Different times, much more civil.

Just the Spurs fans on the way back misbehaving.
