Great to run in to all the faces yesterday still buzzing. God bless yerMy lovely pole....745 for season ticket...on the shelf side.....on the pitch on the pitch on the pitch on the pitch on the pitch on the pitch on the pitch
Brilliant.I wonder what the missus said, when he got home with that...
I was offered £1,600 for my seat!!!! Said no without hesitation, then the thought lingered for hours. But so, so glad I didn't waiver, yesterday was priceless and will live with me until I'm six foot under or inflicted with Alzheimer's.Bad view or not, I bet he'd have still got at least a monkey yesterday should he have chose to sell it..

Yeah, me too.I'm always going to regret not going on the pitch :walkercry:
I was back row of the Paxton lower. Hemmed in but was content soaking in the view then by the time I thought I should head down they were getting a bit militant about clearing the pitch!
Props to whoever stole the Penalty Spot though. Genius steal.
Yep.....that is an epic photo.Yeah, me too.

That's the way to do it!What a great great day and send off to WHL. No ticket but watched the game in the Bell and Hare and then tried to get in after the game. Coppers weren't having any of it so people power took over and the gates got rushed and a load of us got into the Park Lane to watch the ceremony. Was a brilliant way to end the day
A truly very special day – a great privilege to be there and one I will never, ever forget. Big hat off to the fans. Were hugely noisy before the teams had even walked out, kept it up non stop throughout the match and then to sing for Gascoigne and Lennon during the ceremony made me feel really emotional (some of the newspapers have picked that up too). I had to laugh at the few supporters left in the Man Utd end at the end of the match. Very obviously Spurs supporters especially the one holding the flag!
For 55 years I have walked the High Road to see the old girl. It has, like Trigger's broom, had many incarnations, but it remained the same.
From bunking off school, leaving work early and downright bare faced lying to get there, it always drew me.
To family that tolerated me, to the school that despaired of me, to the employers who never understood, to the girls that left me, to the friends who knew, and the wife who is, indeed, a Saint.
It was always only Tottenham, my Tottenham.
If you love a club, you will know, you just know.If you don't, you never will.
Today I will make that walk one last time to say goodbye. Until a new young girl appears on the High Road, to succeed the Grand Old Lady.
Farewell Old Girl, it 's been emotional.
