Spurs
Years ago living dahn sarf l took two nephews, 6 and 8 yo, to their first ever match. The eldest had been pestering for a while. Spurs v Stoke in an end of season nothing to play for match. But Hoddle was playing so...why not.
As we came out we were caught between rival supporters and the Spurs fans were throwing all sorts, half bricks, cans
bottles. Im just crouching over these kids protecting them as best l could. We werent wearing colours obviously, we could have easily been Spud fans. Meant nothing. The kids really frightened, vulnerable.
Never had much regard for them since. Shame as the first match l ever went to was Sunlun v Spurs in 61? in the Cup.Had had a soft spot for them until then.
Fans that day were animals.
