I may seem a bit dim for asking this but me and my mate have no idea about the history of this song being associated with spurs?

Can anyone enlighten me

Barry Manilow was brought in as manager for three weeks once. Then Levy sacked him.

Really?

I thought he was a left back for us.

Used to be played on a coach on away trips back in the day I think and it gradually got taken on as a bit of an unofficial anthem.

You should buy the Spurs Miscellany (if you don't already have it), loads of useful facts in there.

What Smolik said.

Manilow, He's a Yiddo!

FWIW I've always thought we should've gone with 'Copacabana' instead

I've heard the tape got stuck in the player and that's the only song they could play on the way back from an away day on a coach so they kept the name 'CSWY Coaches' & the song stuck too.
