5 Years Ago Today.

Ajax 2 - 3 Tottenham.

The last time we ever really cheered anything?

This game should have resigned “Spursiness” to the bin - you could not get less Spurs than this. We were hammered in the first half, Ajax should have been out of site.

Then a combination of Llorente, Lucas, De ligt and Onahahahahahaha intervened and Poch was crying on the pitch.

It’s been more or less shiete ever since, with the exception of Contes initial 6 month patch when we smashed teams for fun and finished 4th after a poor start

Yep...we even had the Liverpool team turn up we needed and still lost.

I was travelling back to the Midlands from working in Croydon when we played Ajax. I got home a few mins after kick off. In all my years that was one of the most unreal games I have ever watched us play in. I ran around my living room and garden like a lunatic come final whistle. I never got to work the next day due to an old mans hang over... (nothing worse).

I was in my flat in London Bridge for it, never celebrated anything like that before.

Not the biggest fan of the Thirsty Bear for watching football, my usual if I wanted to watch a game was the sheaf.

I jumped in the air and landed on my knees when the third went in. Absolutely killed the next day



Only spurs could go from there to sacking the manager a few months later.

I remember I was watching on a stream that was a couple of minutes behind, I had given up and then got a text saying 'I bet your going mental', that was the moment I realised we had scored. Sure enough a minute or so later Lucas slotted home Dele's cute pass.

Club mentality meant we never turned up in the final and were shafted by a ridiculous penalty in the first minute.

Levy out.

What a horrible day that was. Bad times

Never celebrated a goal like that before or since
Remember saying to my Dad and Son at half time, 3-0 down on aggregate- if we win this I’m running naked in the street
I didn’t run naked but I did run out on to the street with my son when the 95th minute winner went in, screaming my head off. Never forget that moment
