Spurs and Leicester City have shared in the lows of League football, experiencing relegation at the end of season 1934-35. For Tottenham, it was a terrible event to happen, a season after they had finished third in the championship, following promotion the season before. But for Tottenham, they were to suffer 15 long years before they were restored to the pinnacle of the League.

Leicester and Spurs are also linked because of the Double of winning League and Cup in the same season. But Spurs enjoyed the Cup Final luck whilst Leicester were the victors in the League. The Leicester captain of those days was himself destined to play for a double winning side and to be a popular speaker on the after-dinner circuit. You will forgive me for not mentioning his name or the club!

Over the years, Leicester have been a side that has rarely been good enough for the top flight but too strong for the lower flight. They have produced some good players over the years but the best known of the recent ones have been 'The Nicest Man on Earth' and 'Captain Beaky'.

Once upon a time, the 10pm News often included a bulletin on the saga of Gary Lineker's toe as England marched to the brink of the World Cup Final in 1990. (Remember Gazza's tears after he was booked?) Since retirement, Lineker has built up a career as a sports pundit on BBC Television and fronting some programmes. He is one of a number of former footballers who had successfully made the switch.

Unlike many footballers who can only communicate in nods and "Yer, well, er", Alan Smith has always steadily faced the cameras and told it how it was. He is employed by the Daily Telegraph to report on matches and Sky often employ him as an analyst. Despite his employment with a certain North London team in the past, I have plenty of time for Smith as he has not been slow to put the boot into his former employers when it has been deserved.

On Sunday, when Spurs play Leicester City, Spurs will renew their association with Ian Walker, he of the funny hair cut and quirky little smiles when low shots fly past him when they hit a divot - remember McManaman's goal for Liverpool????? Walker was first choice for Tottenham after Erik the Viking was forced to retire. He was the son of a former Colchester goalkeeper called Mike Walker, who I remember playing for Watford when Chelsea thrashed them in their FA Cup Semi-Final in 1970, 5-1. Ian Walker was, in my opinion, no more than an adequate goalkeeper, probably just above Daines, Aleksic and other lesser goalkeepers. The surprise for me was that he was ever considered for England.

Spurs should win on Sunday, particularly if they can ride out the initial storm. If they remain cool, calm and collected for the first half hour, I think they are capable of nicking a win and propelling us up the table.

COME ON YOU SPURS!

Cheers, Brian
