Spurs V Man Utd...Last game at the Lane.

tippspur · 13-05-2017 11:11pm #1

Hopefully United won't spoil the party and we'll at least get the one point we need to secure second place and stay unbeaten at the Lane in our last season there......coys.

2nd Row Donkey · 13-05-2017 11:20pm

Last ever game at WHL

Chance to finish the season unbeaten at home for the entire season.

1 point needed to virtually secure 2nd place thus improving on last season.

A whole host of events before and after the game, ex players and managers in attendance etc.

We can't f**K this one up surely.

I'm torn here, heading to the Westport airshow so gonna have to record it.

This is definitely a game we should be looking to win. Last day at the Lane, we've been the better team all year, and Utd are struggling with injuries. Absolutely no excuse to not go out and go for it. I won't get to see if unfortunately, but will be keeping an eye on the updates as i can.

3-0 Spurs.

Sugarlumps · 14-05-2017 12:53pm

Utd upped there game when we played them at Old Trafford. Currently 6th in the league, can't afford to play safe. Style of football, they don't have one, other than to bore the opposition.

Herrera is a snake. If Dier is starting, don't get snared. Pity Danny Rose is still out injured. Mkhitaryan has a habit of scoring against us.

No team talk needed for this one.

I will miss the "Lane"

Wonderful memories through many years down there.

my own favourite was early 70s, when we won UEFA Cup.

The team got presented the trophy on the pitch, and they held Alan Mullery up on their shoulders.

Then we all ran on the pitch to thank the players and somehow we ended up carrying Mullers around on our shoulders.

We were doing this for a while when Mullery realized all the other players had already left the pitch already.

He quickly asked to be put down, the sprinted across the pitch with the cup in his hands.

I had never seen him run that fast before and he never did again.

Great night.

I will never stop loving Spurs

Bye Bye "The Lane"

Thanks for the memories

Tripper starts

Walker and Dembele on bench.

No sign of Rose, thought he might make the bench.

2nd Row Donkey · 14-05-2017 3:54pm

Looks like Jose is parking the bus against us. 6 at the back.

... Not really, 3 at the back and wing backs but it's very defensive. Carrick and Rooney in cm.

MonkieSocks · 14-05-2017 4:03pm

Just watching West ham V Liverpool.

Pity they didn't play like that against us last match

What a ball by Davies

joeguevara · 14-05-2017 4:42pm

Been a great season...great start now.

It's been emotional!

Glebee · 14-05-2017 4:50pm

Bad miss from Son

abff · 14-05-2017 5:18pm

Well on top, but 3 good chances missed. Let's hope that doesn't come back to haunt us.

davycc · 14-05-2017 5:33pm

Don't forget to jump Shrek Rooney!

Just catching the half time stuff have a load of gin and tonic chilling for full time.

Coys

That was too close for comfort!

MonkieSocks · 14-05-2017 6:28pm

Unbeaten at home this season, brilliant.

We kept Chelsea as honest as possible this season and Leicester last season.

Great way to finish at the lane.

Proud of the lads and all our supporters

tippspur · 14-05-2017 6:30pm

Unbelievable,unbeaten at the lane in our final season there.

tippspur · 14-05-2017 6:32pm

Someones just robbed a corner flag

Worztron · 14-05-2017 6:52pm

Spurs at home in the league this season: P19 W17 D2 L0

That's incredible! COYS

abff · 14-05-2017 8:01pm

Had my dinner after the match was over and recorded the ceremony that's taking place afterwards. Just seen Berbatov taking a selfie. Starting to feel quite emotional.

In that case you better get a full box of tissues for Ginola's entrance

abff · 14-05-2017 8:18pm

Yikes! Just got over discovering that the Go Compare guy is a Spurs fan. Great performance by him, by the way.

abff · 14-05-2017 8:23pm

Not that it matters all that much, but if Chelsea do the double, will it be us or Arsenal in the Community Shield next August?

Arsenal, no questions

Super farewell to the Lane. Notable absentees included former greats Lineker, gazza, hughton, bale, perryman, klinnsman, venables, greaves.

Slightly surprised at the inclusion of Simon Davies and Stephen Carr in the ceremony given that they're unlikely to find themselves in any spurs fan's list of 'legends'.

Charliebull · 14-05-2017 9:39pm

Lineker prob could not due to to contract, gazza is prob either drunk or trying to sober up, bale would not be released, the rest I am surprised by, was Richard gough there,

Gazza was invited but turned it down as he's recovering, he made a statement saying sorry that he wasn't well enough and had a very tough year with a nephew dying

abff · 14-05-2017 10:38pm

The one I'm most surprised to see missing is Steve Perryman. Any idea why he wasn't there?

Steve Perryman is DOF at Exetor,they had a big play off game today,that's what I heard anyway.

tippspur · 14-05-2017 11:50pm

Delighted to see Keano and Berbs at the Lane today.

MonkieSocks · 15-05-2017 12:02am

Greavesie wasn't well enough to attend today but was delighted to be invited. (received text from cousin in london. Spurs mad)

he also sent me this

Just bought a new TV to watch the Championship play offs on.

Nice telly but it comes with no Leeds

positivenote · 15-05-2017 12:46am

simon davies?

GS11 · 15-05-2017 9:59am

Surprised at Justin Edinburgh and Simon davies, Simon Davies even looked surprised to be there.

Teddy, 51, looks about 30.

Arsenal were invited to attend but they didn't turn up....a bit like last week!

Delighted Steve Carr was there. I had a Carr and number 2 jersey as a young fella.

He captained the club, wore the jersey for 13 years and won player of the year twice (1999 and 2000).

Glebee · 15-05-2017 12:40pm

Vinny Samways looked a bit shook

Yes, the absence of Chris Hughton & Jurgen Klinsmann was odd.

Charliebull · 15-05-2017 8:41pm

Klinsmann was there couple weeks before at the Arsenal game, which was strange,
Hughton is very strange and galvin too, I would love to have seen gough, I used to think he was the dogs you know what until he went to rangers

Paul Stewart must have spent the last 20 years drinking and then cliff jones at 82 runs onto the pitch,

That's right - I forgot about Tony Galvin.

Kudos to Cliff Jones (aged 82) for jogging on while others walked slowly on. What a class act.

I could not believe the size of Clive Allen. *_*

4Leinster · 16-05-2017 6:55am

Tony Galvin was there and introduced as 'that rare thing - a footballer with a degree in Russian'.

In fairness who would blame Paul Stewart if he was drinking for the last 20 years after what he went through - at least he showed up, unlike Gazza - hence he got one of the loudest cheers of the evening.

I missed Galvin, I may rewatch it on Spurs YT channel.

Fair play to Paul Stewart for making it there.

Spurs V Man Utd...Last game at the Lane.
