13/09/12 vs Barcelona @ WHL

Tomorrow we play Coventry in the FA Cup. The 1882 will be there in block 30 of the Shelf Lower.

The aim of the 1882 movement is to support our team and the shirt they play in as voraciously as our lungs will allow. We want to hark back to the days before the Premier League, when how loud you sing and how passionate you became wasn’t dependent on how well Tottenham were playing.

We don’t claim to be better than other supporters and we’re not trying to segregate our fans. We simply want to make noise and get behind the team, which hopefully creates a more enjoyable match-day experience.

Below is a short compilation of the 1882 support at games against Barcelona in the NextGen Series and Maribor in the Europa League. Get involved.

    Please sit on the West Stand more often. I’ll have to endure the middle-class silence just above the dugout on Saturday lol. Keep up the work guys! COYS!!!

    You lot were absolutely fantastic in the East stand against Maribor. It made a possibly dull game very special

    True Spurs supporters who like to express themselves: Use the noise always.

    I will rather prefer you support a team that’s playing well , than have a silly idea u support a team not playing well all because of the shirt, well that’s exactly the difference between mediocrity and excellence, I’m sure sir Alex won’t be happy if man u were playing shit , and that perhaps why they don’t. And I’m happy AVB understands this fact.

    Does the 1882 movement always sits on block 30?

      No, it’s not always in that block.
