Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Spurs legends Chris Waddle and Glen Hoddle assualted the charts in the 1980s. What was their hit single?

Answer: Diamond Lights

Nothing else to say apart from 'What were they thinking of?'

2. Which former Stoke City striker starred for Spurs in the early 1980s and in the early 2000s had been seen presenting the BBCs coverage of the African Cup of Nations?

Answer: Garth Crooks

Garth was a much underrated striker who formed an excellent partnership with Archibald during the glory years.

3. A famous comment: 'Paul Miller will always have a place in my team'. Who said this?

Answer: Peter Shreeves

He meant it too. Wile Ardiles, Hoddle and co endeavoured to score 4 at one end, Miller did his best to help the opposition score 5 at the other end.

4. Who was 'the Rocket'?

Answer: Ronny Rosenthal

Rocket Ronny was so named because of his legendary pace. This was the only reason why the Israeli international of no apprecialble talent got in the team. Liverpool also made the same mistake!

5. Which ex-Blackpool player delivered Gazza's FA Cup Winners medal to him in hospital?

Answer: Paul Stewart

Big Paul did the honours. He also scored that day in one of his best performances for the club.

6. Which future Spurs player scored against the club in an FA Cup Final?

Answer: Terry Fenwick

It was 1982 and Fenwick played for QPR. His efforts were all in vain as Spurs won the Cup after a replay. Most of his efforts were in vain after he joined Spurs too!

7. Which two international strikers of the 90s left the club only to return in our hour of need?

Answer: Sheringham and Klinsman

Jurgen returned to save us from relegation with a single handed hammering of Wimbledon. Teddy has now returned to help our pursuit of silverware under Glen Hoddle.

8. Which Argentinian World Cup hero made a place for himself in FA Cup legend with a brace in the final against Man City in 81?

Answer: Ricardo Villa

He was substituted in the first match and left the field in tears, but Burkinshaw kept faith with him for the replay. Villa scored twice including a goal properly regarded as one of the greatest ever scored at Wembley. If you are a Spurs fan you'll know what I mean!

9. Which Swiss manager nearly took Spurs down in the 90s and vies for the title of worst Spurs manager with Francis, Ardiles and Graham?

Answer: Christian Gross

When you are in the electrical shop and are contemplating buying an Amstrad product remember that that product is brought to you by the same Alana Sugar who brought Gross to Spurs.

10. Which Spurs defender joined fierce rivals Arsenal in 2001 to the dismay of the club's supporters?

Answer: Sol Campbell

I still can't believe he did it.
