Cheers just googled him left us for the goons played 157 times for Tottenham not one of the better known players of that era,well not to me anyway.Jimmy Robertson
The brief case!
It's still there! (Well, the building is...)It's amazing to think that Varney still had his own practice whilst with us, it was still a part-time job! I used to go just because he was Spurs, it was on The A10 at the junction of Carterhatch Lane in a parade of shity shops no one ever went in. Got him to sign my appoint reminder card lol.
I only remember him as "Georgio Mazzon" (1980 Pannini book) and was always confused as a kid, cos it said he was English...George Mason was on the fringes of my brother's social circle in his very early playing days. When he made a few first team appearances he insisted on being called Georgio Mazzon, because he thought he might get called up by Italy.... Not sure how that panned out
that clip makes me SO happy!!My White Hart Lane......

Lifting the FA cup in 1967
Not retro as such but remember watching it on sky yellow kit,when the F.A Cup meant something happy days
My pleasure,think that was a replay we drew 1-1 at our gaff remember thinking that was us goosed having not doing the job at home.we had been originally banned from the cup that season but was reinstated lost to Everton in the semi final absolutely gutted bout that then Everton won the fecking thing by boring everyone to death in the final against United.When you've been to as many games as I have, it's a struggle sometimes to remember specific games. But I remember so many details of this game, like it was yesterday. We definitely thought it was our year, as we had been originally been banned from participating in the competition. What a turnaround after going 2-0 down, loved Rocket Ronnie asking the ref for the match ball at the end. On the way home,we were listening to a Take That tape (yes tape!) and we changed the words to honour Ronnie.... Could it be Magic became Could it be Ronnie, Relight my Fire became Relight my Ronnie, you get the drift
The following day at work, we had a Results presentation at work, and this was back when slides were on acetates! Anyway, the Finance Director just happened to be a Spurs fan, and his first slide showed the result from the game, with the announcement - 'now that's what you call a result!' He was lucky to keep his job, as the General Manager was a Southampton supporter!
Happy Days - thanks for posting

Did a swap with the scum, they got Robertson and we got David fucking Jenkins. Got well stitched up with that deal.Cheers just googled him left us for the goons played 157 times for Tottenham not one of the better known players of that era,well not to me anyway.
Rumours were Robertson got off with directors wife or daughter and had to be sold. Why we took Jenkins in return I will never know. The first in a long line of failures that came from Woolwich.Did a swap with the scum, they got Robertson and we got David fucking Jenkins. Got well stitched up with that deal.
