By your beds,
In the lifetime of this two bob blog, there have been a few consistent elements. Typos, daytime drinking, my ability to start a fight in an empty room …hang on – I’m Alan Brazil. Well, there’s one of life’s eternal questions answered.
But one genuinely ever present factor has been the issue of our strikers. You build a team from the back, but goals win games. Goals that your lot scores. You can talk all day about ‘service’ and ‘form’ but strikers live and die by their tally. Sure, some are tirelessly intelligent off the ball, but that’s a bonus. Miss World doesn’t get her crown by being a crackerjack flower arranger.
So here’s your task. Tell me who your favourite Spurs goalscorer in your lifetime has been. The reason I ask ‘in your lifetime’ is to allow the passion of younger fans an equal footing with some of our more distinguished Yids who travelled to games on black & white trams clutching over-sized wooden rattles.
You don’t have to have even been to a game to join in. If you were listening to the radio to follow John White’s exploits, that counts just as much.
The best submission will get sent a nice Tottingham related book. I’ve included a poll which ought to cover most of the big names. If I miss anyone you want included, tell me, I’ll update.
This should be a goody. BIOYC!

My 2 favourite Spurs goals. I was on The Shelf at both games.

my favorite is greaves .the list of top guns is seemingly endless . lineker , klinsmann , gilzean, chivers , dyson .i got his autograph at walthamstow avenue .luved them all magic moments :daumen:
Teddy for me. But would be greaves if I’d had the pleasure.
On another note and because I want to see it in writing. Now Thudd is close to being back how about this for a starting 11;
Gomes
Gallas Dawson King/woody
Lennon Thudd Modric Sandro Baler
VdV Pav/crouch
What a midfield that is! 3-5-2 aint for everyone and certainly not always the best formation against teams with fast wingers. It also means BAE first get a look in
However one day I’d love to see that team take the field
“first” wont
Muppet
Gomes
Corluka Gallas Dawson BAE
Lennon Sandro Modric Bale
VdD
Pav
Jimmy Graves
Because I’m old
Steffen Iversen and Gordon Durie?
