Spurs scored the only
goal of this poor match in the second half. Sol Campbell,
making his 100th Spurs appearance, took the ball
up the left wing with players supporting in the penalty box.
The defender's cross to the far post looked harmless enough, but a
jump by Chris Armstrong met the ball and his header went over and
across the keeper and into the net to give Spurs all three points
with his 65th minute goal.
Tottenham's best chances had come from
Teddy Sheringham, who had a shot cleared off the line and Justin
Edinburgh, who brought a good low save from Immel at his near post.
The German keeper also stopped efforts fro Sheringham and Armstrong,
with Walker doing well to keep out Niall Quinn and Uwe Rosler,
before Rosler struck a shot that bounced away off the post, leaving
City to return home with nothing for their trip to London.

At the start of
the season, Spurs went to Maine Road and went ahead ten minutes
before half time, when a long pass forward to Ronnie Rosenthal, wide
left just outside the box, pulled the ball back to substitute Kevin
Scott. The defender put in a cross to the far post for Teddy
Sheringham who was unmarked to head past goalkeeper Eike Immel.
Ten minutes into
the second half, Uwe Rosler scored with a header over Walker, who
had advanced from his line, to leave the scores level.

Having just suffered
defeat in the FA Cup semi-final, Spurs got straight back into the
business of winning League points with a 2-1 win over City, in a
game that had been postponed from 21st January, because of heavy
rainfall in the morning prior to the game leading to a 2.00 p.m.
postponement.
Uwe Rosler gave Tottenham a 49th
minute shock with a goal put City ahead, but David Howells got
Tottenham level four minutes later. It was left to Jurgen Klinsmann
to notch the winner with just four minutes remaining.

Spurs took a 24th
minute lead in this Wednesday night Premier League match, when
Darren Anderton shot the ball past Tony Coton. With two minutes
left before half-time, Nayim extended the lead to 2-0, but Mike
Sheron pulled one back for Man. City just on the hour mark. 87
minutes had elapsed when Andy Turner completed the scoring to give
Spurs the three points.

Although hooligans
marred this FA Cup Sixth round match, the game itself was a fine
one, with Nayim scoring a hat-trick for Tottenham.
Mike Sheron headed in a Terry
Phelan cross after just three minutes to give the early advantage to
City, but Nayim equalised when he hit a low half volley through a
forest of legs in the box from 20 yards, after a long throw had been
headed out to him. Right on half-time, Tottenham took the lead when
Paul Allen played the ball in from the left wing to Sedgley and he
drove a shot past Tony Coton.
Into the second period, Spurs work
a throw-in on the right through Dean Austin to Sheringham, who's
shot crashes back off the foot of a post. It drops in the middle of
the box, where Nayim got the ball stuck under his foot but reacted
quickly to put Tottenham 3-1 up. The midfielder completed his
hat-trick when Paul Allen found Nayim near the penalty spot after a
good run down the right wing. He stopped the ball, picked his spot
and curled it in around Coton. Man. City fans invaded the pitch at
4-1, with Police horses also getting on the grass, hoping to get the
game abandoned, but the match ended with a very good win for Spurs,
who went on to the semi-final. The best goal of the match was
scored by Terry Phelan, who slalomed through the Tottenham side and
finished at the end of a 50 yard run.
Teddy Sheringham also missed a
penalty, probably because he was informed by City keeper Coton that
he wouldn't get out alive if he scored !!

A single goal decided
this League Cup Fourth Round encounter at Maine Road.
With just 14 minutes on the clock,
Erik Thorstvedt launched a big kick downfield and Vinny Samways
latched onto Nicky Barmby's flicked header on and smashed a low shot
into the bottom corner of the net from the edge of the box.
Thorsvedt then turned goal-stopper, with a succession of saves from
Simpson, White, Sheron and Quinn's diving header.
When Sheringham missed Paul
Allen's cross from the right wing, Barmby snuck in behind and forced
a good save from Coton, while Teddy and Samways also tested the City
custodian. However, both goals stayed intact and Tottenham
progressed by the narrowest of margins.

Goals from Mike Channon, Peter
Barnes and a Brian Kidd penalty saw City ease to a 3-0 win at White
Hart Lane to ruin Tony Galvin and Stuart Beavon's debuts for
Tottenham. Manchester City kicked
off defending the Paxton Road goal and it was Tottenham who should
have had a penalty for handball, but straight away City broke away
and Steve Perryman hauled down Peter Barnes in the box to concede a
penalty that Gary Owen stepped up to convert.
Another break, from a Spurs corner saw
Barnes outpace Perryman down the City left from the halfway line and
shot across Kandall from a narrow angle to make it 2-0.
With Deyna replacing the injured Dave
Watson at the break, City attacked with confidence and when Barnes'
left wing cross fell to Mick Channon eight yards out, it looked a
goal all over, but Mark Kendall pushed the effort one-handed over
the bar to make a fine stop.
City player Paul Power
earned a booking for a foul on Galvin, who had been booked for
kicking Colin Bell. Lacy also went in the book for an
agricultural challenge on Barnes. McAllister was also booked
for another foul on Barnes in the build up to the third goal.
Beavon had a shot blocked on the edge of
the box, but Spurs were out of the game,
relying on Peter Taylor to head an effort off the line. but
city would not be denied and Barnes was once more the architect,
with a left wing run ending in a cross for an unmarked Channon to
head past Kendall to wrap up a 3-0 win in front of a watching Rinus
Michaels, the Dutch national manager.

relegated with this defeat at Maine Road.

minute and this goal was followed by efforts from Dennis Tueart,
Peter Barnes and Asa Hartford hit the net in the period just after

Prior to the game, Pat Jennings was presented with a silver salver

Spurs lost out in the odd goal
in five at the Lane as City took two First Division points.
Rodney Marsh scored the first goal of the
game, but Martin Chivers was on the mark, when he shot home after
being picked out by an astute pass from Steve Perryman.
Francis Lee scored a second half brace, with the second being
allowed despite it looking more than suspiciously like handball as
he punched the ball in. Chivers' second of the match narrowed the
score to 3-2, hitting a left footed shot into the net at the Park
Lane end but it was no consolation as the feeling of being
cheated remained.
Chivers also went close to a third with a shot from the right of the
goal, but while his effort beat Joe Corrigan it also beat the far
post and went just inches wide.

goals were enough for City to take the points in this First Division

before Martin Peters pulled the scores back level with a header.
However, four minutes from time Marsh gave Manchester City a vital
two points with his second goal, knocking the ball home from close

bottom in the table.

and they did not do themselves justice by turning in an under-par
performance at Maine Road.
Colin Bell scored early on for City, who then went on to add another
goal before half-time from Mike Summerbee despite Spurs coming back
into the game between the goals.

game went on, ice started to form on the surface of the pitch. City
hit back to win the match 4-1 in the end with goals from to complete

Greaves goal), City captain Tony Book advised his team-mates to take
their studs out of their boots and this helped thei game no end.
"We weer knocking the ball around like it was a bowling green while
Spurs were slipping all over the place," said Colin Bell. Man. City:

Manchester City left White
Hart lane with a point in this First Division encounter.
A City goal from David Connor gave the
visitors the lead into the second half, but Jimmy Robertson got an
equaliser to salvage a point for Tottenham, although, sadly, they
were more concerned about Phil Beal's broken forearm which put him
out for the remainder of the season.

Spurs were taken
apart by a rampant City side on a snow white pitch at Maine Road,
which started to thaw as the game began.
Joe Hayes opened the scoring
after 30 minutes, with Peter Dobing doubling the score two minutes
later. With half-time approaching Neil Young struck to make it 3-0
and two minutes after the interval Dave Mackay deflected Dobing's
effort past John
Hollowbread. Peter Baker
was forced into putting the ball into his own net by pressure from
Colin Barlow five minutes later and the sixth City goal rounded off
Dobing's hat-trick with 57 minutes of the match having elapsed.
Two Jimmy Greaves goals were
Tottenham's only consolation from the trip North.

Bill McAdams in the second half won this Easter match with Spurs at White Hart Lane.
However,
The match was clouded with controversy when Cliff Jones converted a
rebound from a penalty, which Bert Trautmann saved. However,

ended as soon as the City keeper saved the penalty shot. Spurs: Brown, Baker, Henry,

A sad occasion
coinciding with a visit to the Lane of Manchester City saw 37,539 spectators stand in pouring rain to pay their respects to the
Busby Babes who had died in a plane crash at Munich two days
before.
Joe Hayes gave City a lead after
38 minutes, but Spurs hit back with a second half surge. Johnny
Harmer had a penalty saved by Bert Trautmann and minutes later
Johnny Brooks slid home the ball after the keeper had stopped Smith's
fierce drive. Then came a Bobby Smith hat-trick to put Spurs out of
reach.
Smith even set up the fifth goal
for George Robb four minutes from the end of the game to cap a fine
solo performance.

Bobby Johnstone,
known to the Maine Road faithful as Bobby Dazzler, scored the goal
that took City back to Wembley, where they fulfilled captain Roy
Paul's vow to win the Cup in 1956 after losing to Newcastle in the
previous year's final.
However,
in the last few minutes, it appeared that Spurs should have had a
penalty when Bert Trautmann grabbed the ankle of Spurs forward
George Robb in the box.

From Michael Tibby : -
Spurs were not doing particularly well in the league and had been
playing Tommy Harmer at outside right for a few games. Semi-Final
day was St Patrick’s Day and a photo in the paper showed Danny
Blanchflower (I think on Euston Station) pinning shamrock onto DAVE
DUNMORE’s lapel.
Because of rainy weather and a possible heavy pitch at Villa Park,
Tommy Harmer (a genius on his day) had been dropped by Manager Jimmy
Anderson in favour of Dave Dunmore who had never fulfilled his
potential.
Spurs lost 1-0 (a Bobby Johnstone goal?) but there was tremendous
controversy concerning George Robb. Late in the game he was
held by the legs by City’s German born ex paratrooper goalkeeper
Bert Trautmann (who was to become the hero of the next year’s 1955
Cup Final). Extensive newspaper photographs, in frame by frame
sequence, show George Robb, with the goal at his mercy, being
clearly held by Trautmann with the ball to one side. No-one
could understand how the referee managed to miss this incident.
Bert received a lot of hate mail over this and obviously, being not
long after WWII, you can imagine what it was like.

Manchester City
shared the points with Spurs in a 3-3 draw at White Hart Lane.
Bill Sowden and Jimmy Meadows had put City 2-0 ahead at half-time,
but that was stretched to 3-0 after the turnaround by a second
Sowden goal. Despite being virtually out of the match, Tottenham put
in a rally to get a point with Sid McClellan, George Robb and in the
last minute, Alf Ramsey hit a penalty in off the crossbar, with the
ball bouncing down behind Bert Trautmann.Spurs: , , , , , , , , , ,

Tottenham were taken
back to Maine Road for a replay in this FA Cup Third round tie, but
did enough to win.
Lewis Barber in goal for
Manchester City played a blinder, but Man. City took the lead with a
controversial goal . Ernie Toseland's goal was ruled out and a
free-kick given to Spurs, but the ref spoke to the linesman and
awarded the goal to City.
City were reduced to ten men, when
Barber punched his own full-back Mick Ridley, who had to leave the
field. Tottenham capitalised on their numerical advantage, as
Osborne went past Jimmy McMullan and Bill Felton to shoot Tottenham
level. Billy Cook converted Andy Thompson's cross in the 75th
minute to give Tottenham what looked like a winning lead, but City
came back with Sam Cowan equalising with a 25 yard shot with five
minutes left.
