Spurs' Cult Heroes by Michael Lacquiere

Spurs' Cult Heroes is devoted to 20 players who, over the years, have won a special place in the hearts of the White Hart Lane faithful - not necessarily the greatest footballers, but a unique brotherhood of mavericks and stalwarts, local lads and big signings. The cast list alone is enough to stir up the memories and tug at the heartstrings of any Tottenham fan - Greaves, Klinsmann and Blanchflower, Ardiles, Roberts and Ginola - recalling how these charismatic personalities used to ignite passion on the terraces. Find out exactly what Double-winning Dave Mackay said to Billy Bremner while grabbing him round the throat. Which legend accidentally dented the FA Cup in post-match celebrations. And who turned up to training plastered in GBP50 notes. Discover and delight in the magical qualities of these 20 mere mortals elevated to cult status in the streets of North London.
