Mrs. Stratford Seagull intercepted my Spurs ticket application response, wrapped it up and put it under the tree .... and it was a letter from the club explaining why I hadn't got a ticket.
However, I did enjoy watching Charlie's DVD.
I remember the game in 72 - standing on a packed East Terrace and Beamish's winner was very late in the game with a shot from the edge of the box.
More recently there was a league game at their place which we lost 4-3 in Liam Brady's time. Think we were 1-0 up but 3-1 down by halftime, then...

Cannot explain to people just how privileged I feel to follow this great club of ours - just as an away...
Can't say I've any special soft spot for Notts County (that was never a corner before their first goal in the Play Off final), but I would hate to see any club with their tradition cease to exist.
At least we have a chance to help in some small way though. I don't know what the ticketing...
Great shotstopper - I don't think I've seen better at the Albion.
Double-save at Wolves last year, the save at Rushden a couple of weeks ago at 2-1, a save against Blackpool in a midweek game at Withdean in Div 3, the performances against Bristol City (home and away) in Div 2 all spring to mind...
