Ian Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) remember it very well......my son was born at 11pm the day before......we won 3-0 Campbell would have been 24......hardly young and definitely didn't play up front Edited May 28, 2020 by Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Actually can't remember that at all! Although I remember going there in 1992 when we won 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camped in their half for 45 minutes, Bright should have had a hatrick. Loat 3-1 The Wednesday way. Nice to get some revenge in this thread.

Remember after the game Di Canio said something along the lines of 'Spurs are in trouble if they are getting beat as easily as that at home to us'! Ferdinand and Chris Armstrong were up front for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Yes I remember being at this game. Was at a time when Tottenham were being really over shadowed in North London by Arsenal and going through managers at rate of one per season. Not 100% sure but I think they got rid of the manager after this game Christian Gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Thing is look at our side that day it wasnt that bad..... Pressman Nolan Thome Walker Hinchcliffe Carbone Atherton Jonk Rudi Booth Di Canio Imagine if we had kept Big Ron, he had stuff to work with there.... 2 or 3 new players and we could have pushed on. But, we had Wilson and Richards and look what happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think if we'd have kept Big Ron he would have upgraded Nolan Atherton and Booth pre season and with his management skills we could have Pushed Europe. I know he was looking to sign Gary Speed that pre season had he stayed, what a difference he would have made not only to the team to Wim Jonk. He could have actually been the player we thought we were signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The likes of DiCanio and Carbone were never going to gel with players like Atherton and Booth, and in the end lost confidence in them This resulted in the two Italians playing keep ball amongst themselves most of the time. Another forward on the same wavelength as those two, with Jonk feeding them, and we might have gone on to establish ourselves in the division Too many championship level players were signed, and that was inevitably where we ended up Edited May 29, 2020 by gurujuan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in reality not sure if that was going to happen as the clubs debt was mounting at the time and probably would have restricted us in the transfer market.

But imagine Big Ron, Di Canio would probably have gone to Man U for big money. Could all have been different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People go on about them having a bad attitude but as you elude to what did you expect when they were WAY ahead of the players they were playing with.

Nolan was playing in the wrong position but the rest of that team had played international football. It makes me sad now (not angry) about Richard's selfishness in getting rid of Big Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
