Thank you. And I am certainly grateful for the full allocation as it allowed me to visit their stadium for the first time. It's rather good.

It was my first away for years too. Great fun. Whilst the stadium is impressive I do think it doesn't feel very much like a Spurs home ground, more a generic sports stadium which I guess is what it is.

I was at St Andrews in Dec 87 too. Do we think we had more than 9k there. Attendance was mid 20's wasn't it? ,
