We beat them in the Championship winning season with two Sid Cowans penalties didn't we? In a windy White Hart lane where one side was being rebuilt.

1990, as it was the first time I'd ever seen the Villa go top of the league.


We'll be top by 9 o'clock!

We won the home game (3-0 i think), lost the away game (0-2)

Is correct.

We won there 2-1 the previous season where Sid got a pen and Geddis got the other.

The 3rd round FA Cup replay in 1992 -Yorke scored the goal in a 1-0 win - I thought our chance had gone after the first game.

Not quite a win, but the 5-5 in 1966, when we came back from 5-1 down and almost won, was one of the great come-backs. I wasn't there, nor at the famous 4-1 in 1978, which must be our best win at Spurs in recent times, but I did see the 2-1 in 1979, just as the immortal team was beginning to take shape, and the memorable 4-2 in 2000, when every goal was better than the last, culminating in a Wright rocket.

Without doubt one of the finest away performances by a Villa side in my time was the 4-1 win in August 1978.

Portrayed as lambs to the slaughter as Ardiles and Villa made their debuts, 50,000 in White Hart Lane, tickertape everywhere and we played them off the park. Brian Little was unplayable that night.

The team was:-

Rimmer, Gidman, Swain, Evans, McNaught, Mortimer, Shelton, Little, Carrodus, Cowans, Gregory

Scorers: Evens, Gregory, Little, Shelton.

Shame there is no footage. Six of the championship side already in place.


Who played left-back in that team? Was Swain being used as a winger still?

Smith. Swain didn't join us till December that year.

There must be footage around as I've seen the ticker-tape welcome loads of times.

Brilliant game, especially as I felt with the atmosphere inside the ground before kick off, we were only there to make up the numbers. The day was supposed to be all about Spurs. Magical days.

August 1978 and that fantastic 4-1 win with the argentinians making their debuts.The game was on the wednesday night.
Me and 3 mates drove down in a little mini 850,frankly we were lucky to make it away without getting beaten up.After the game we drove just out of london and slept rough on the service area.Next morning was back into London and off to the Oval,England v New Zealand test match.Then over to Reading and pitched our tents to party all weekend at the Reading Rock festival.With a quick break from the festival on the saturday to go and see villa then lose 1-0 at bristol city.
Happy days,we packed loads in as you can see,if I tried that now it would probably kill me.

2 down, Lineacre had a penner to make it three, Spink saved, we pulled one back just before half time then went mental second half. Five different scorers. Great day, that.


That's my favourite as well. Went with a mix of Villa and Spurs fans and were going to meet up at a pub in the West End afterwards. Funnily enough half the Spurs fans didn't turn up, but some brve ones did, much to our enjoyment.


Thirded. That was my favourite visit ever to WHL, if only because, as ever, Spurs had a cracking looking team on paper and you just couldn't see us getting back from two down in a month of Sundays...
