      Yeah same , i can remember most of the 1991 season and that topped it off , its the first season the old man started taking me to games and stuff so it really hit home what the club was all about

      I remember watching it up my nans in watford 10 years old, Me nan had got me a big bag of sweets to watch it with but i got a mouth ulser come us before the game so i had to give all my sweets to my brother lol, I was soon smiling again after the Gazza free kick! I used to idolise that man as a kid, such a shame he has lost his way. Hopefully he will sort himself out.

      My family are all spurs but like most above, this is when it really hit home that i choose my colours for life!!

      The FA Cup that year sticks in my head for a few reasons that year. Obviously We won the dam thing but also the Day i fell i love with Gary Lineker after scoring 2 goals against the scum and Gazza's free kick.

      And on a Sad note the final.... the day one of the best footballers (gazza) in history sadly ended. Ok he went on to play but he was never the same after that!!!!

      same as me mate, i thought Lineker and gazza were the dogs dick back then, they are the two players that i will always consider as my fav players, although you can't forget Gary Mabbutt...solid !

      Mabbutt was class.... its funny how you always remember the foward players but seem to forget the Rocks at the back!

      On a side note his got a autobiography coming out soon and is doing a book signing in london. Would love to meet him as his the last spurs player to lift that magical trophy.

      went to every FA cup game that season, jaysus Blackpool was cold and windy, Portsmouth was a great day, and we all cried at the semi. that was one hell of an emotional season.

      i was at the semi and final that year.im going to get pelters here but i dont like watching that final,its the day my love of gazza died,i know i know very harsh,but he had everything going for him ,playing in a final for a big club,great chance for a fa cup medal and he nearily single handed ruined mine and every other spurs fan day that day.ill never forget my dad saying to me during the warm up,im worried about gazza hes more hyper than normal,and as we watched he kicked a ball full force into the band that was going round the pitch,nearily taking the head of a bloke playing the trumpet.bittersweet day for me but i always try and remember the semi as my fondest memory of gazza.
