FA Cup at Wembley, to complete the first Double of the 20th Century, after 60 attempts, at the 61st attempt on May 6th, 1961, Spurs cracked it. All ways the innovators, leading the way.
Discuss that glorious double, and all subsequent doubles done since never really seemed quite as glorious at that Spurs one.
Could 2021, the year of the one, see a repeat performance. Football is a funny old game as they say. The first behind closed doors double, and Spurs do it.

2121 will be a transition year for Tottenham, if there is any football at all.
The squad will be totally overhauled.
Current CBs will be replaced as will all of the backs.
Kane may be gone as well.
And the GKs.
You won't even know the team anymore.
In fact ...... I defy you to predict who will be in it! And who the manager will be

I won`t be around in 2121 Ted, I cannot wait that long.

It was onlt a double. Great teams win a TREBLE.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They were the only trophies Spurs competed in. No doubt they probably would have been the first side to complete the quadruple, had they been in the European Cup and the League Cup had been around.

They were in the European cup the next season let us know how they got on.

Always remember Spurs took 68 years from their formation to win their first title, so not sure why our supporters are just blaming Levy. The club have never had a habit of winning titles.
I am at least thankful I have seen Spurs win 50 per cent of their titles, and all titles were won in my lifetime.

"so not sure why our supporters are just blaming Levy."
"NOT SURE?
How about the "buy no players" season that Pochettino suffered through in silence, for starters?
And then the pinch penny purchases like your favorite RB ( what's 'is name, I bet you've forgotten, might begin the "A", and the wrong Fernandez and the out-of-shape-can't-be bothered-to-play NDombele.
"not sure why our supporters are just blaming Levy."
YOU CAN NOT BE SERIOUS!!!
Apologies to Johnny Mac!
