Is Gascoigne Going To Have a Crack? The Spurs Nostalgia Podcast

94/95 Season Review - PART ONE (with Chris Slegg)

94/95 might just be the most fun season in Spurs' entire history let alone the 90s. It was an absolute rollercoaster but remembered so fondly by fans and players alike. I was joined by Chris Slegg who co-wrote the 2017 book 'The Team That Dared To Do' alongside Gerry Francis that serialises this incredible season. It was so incredible and incident packed that we've broken it into two parts. In this episode Chris and I talk through the pre-season excitement of Klinsmann and the Famous Five and the early part of the season that saw Spurs suddenly considered as genuine title challengers (despite starting on -6 points!) and playing the most scintillating brand of football seen in N17 since the Push and Run side of the 50s. However, in true Spurs style it was short lived and following a crushing 3-0 loss to 2nd tier Notts County in the League Cup 3rd round Ossie Ardiles was sacked. We'll reflect on Ossie's period as manager and the position Spurs found themselves in as we approach winter. Part Two, out next week, will pick up the story from there.

The Summer of '94 (with Theo Delaney and Milo)

The Summer of 1994 was as dramatic and turbulent as the near-disaster of the season we'd just endured. Theo Delaney and Milo both returned to the podcast to discuss: * Our extraordinary punishment from the FA that saw us deducted 12 points, thrown out the FA Cup and fined a record amount. * The 1994 Summer World Cup * The audacious signing of Jurgen Klinsmann on Alan Sugar's yacht. The rollercoaster ride that was Tottenham Hotspur in the 1990s didn't stop when the season ended as this episode explores. Read all about Spurs' mayhem (plus the magic and mediocrity) in the 90s in my book.
