Remember going to the Spurs night game in 85, I was living and working in London at the time and took my then girlfriend to the game (she supported the Hammers). Got the train to Seven Sisters and walked to the ground with the Spurs fans keeping pretty quiet.
Crammed in a corner of the ground with the rest of the blues fans, Andy Gray scored we all went mad and she fainted. It was pretty crammed in there, no seats back then. Anyway picked her up and she was passed overhead by all the lads (some enjoying it a little too much) to the front where they opened the gate (we were caged in back then), I followed her and they took us around the ground to the first aid room which was on the side of the ground full of Spurs fans.
She went into the first aid room and I was told to wait outside. Half time came and I was surrounded by very angry Spurs fans. I learned that night I could do a passable feckin s*** in a cockney accent, and that they really didn't like scousers.
So with my scarf tied around my waist I managed to survive half time. As the second half starts she is allowed out so I started to go back into the ground. I was stopped by a copper who asked where I was going and as soon as he heard my accent said no chance, and we got thrown out the ground.
Missed the rest of the game and the win. Never took her to another game after that. And that is why I hope they get relegated ?.

Would be nice to see us do it on our last game, mate.
