We’ve done Botswana.

Now we’re planning something a little closer to home.

On the 16th February 2012 Tottenham’s youth side take on Charlton at the Valley in the 5th round of the FA Youth Cup. We want them to have a taste of what it might feel like to play for the Spurs first team. We want our young developing players to feel some of the passion that, we, Tottenham’s magnificent supporters can generate as a way of spurring them on to greater things for our illustrious club.

We want you to join The Fighting Cock in creating an atmosphere on this night that these players will never ever forget. We want to create something that will go down in Tottenham folklore. And all you have to do is turn up and sing your heart out. Bring flags, scarves, anything you can swing around!

We’re going to be contacting the club about tickets etc. All you need to do is spread the word, round up your mates, and join us at Barrowboy and Banker pub in London Bridge station from 4:30pm before setting off at 6pm to head for the Valley to let the yids out.

For one night be one of the Tottenham Ultras.

[quote]Ultras are a type of sports fans renowned for their fanatical support and elaborate displays. They are predominantly European followers of soccer teams. The behavioral tendency of ultras groups includes the use of flares (primarily in tifo choreography), vocal support in large groups and the displaying of banners at football stadiums, all of which are designed to create an atmosphere which encourages their own team and intimidates opposing players and supporters.

The whole evening will be recorded and made into a short film to be released through The Fighting Cock website.
