17.04.1993 Spurs had to come from a goal behind to win 4-1 against Oldham Athletic at White Hart Lane in the Premier League.

Darren Beckford gave Oldham a good start with a headed goal that the away side preserved until half-time.  A left wing corner was headed back into the goalmouth for Beckford to bundle the ball in at the far post with 25 minutes on the clock, but Spurs were level in the 58th minute with Teddy Sheringham sending Paul Gerrard the wrong way in converting a penalty awarded when Neil Pointon handled a right wing corner.  Sheringham then created the next Tottenham goal with a right wing cross for Darren Anderton to head into the net with 70 minutes gone.

In the 82nd minute, Teddy Sheringham - on his 300th league appearance - scored a second penalty, this time putting it into the other corner of the net, given when Nick Barmby was brought down by Mike Milligan as he raced into the box.  A fine second half performance by Spurs was rounded off with Andy Turner's side-foot finish in the 84th minute, set up by Sheringham, who had got away on the left and rolled the ball across for the youngster to score.

19.12.1992

A last minute Ian Olney goal gave Oldham three vital points in this Premier League encounter.

The home side went into the lead through Graeme Sharp's goal in the first half, which came as a result of Richard Jobson's header from a free-kick providing the striker the opportunity to head in a 29th minute opener.

After the turnaround, Spurs got back on level terms when Paul Allen ran away down the right and crossed for Gary Mabbutt to head back into the goalmouth.  Nick Barmby headed the ball down to where Teddy Sheringham stood unmarked and from six yards out, the forward equalised in the 61st minute.  Olney's late winner was a blow for Spurs, who hoped to bring something home from Boundary Park, but the lanky striker's header from a last minute free-kick left Spurs disappointed.

08.10.1977 Tottenham ran out 5-1 winners in this Second Division meeting, with John Duncan opening the scoring when he slid in to score and the goal was added to by a Martin Robinson header.  Duncan made it three just before the half-time break, then Peter Taylor netted a brace in the second half - rounding the keeper and then shooting past him for his second, although the shine was taken off the win with Keith Osgood's ligament injury that ended his run of 102 consecutive appearances.  The single strike for Oldham came from striker Alan Young.
