Présentation de l'éditeur

Tottenham Hotspur: Head to Head reveals for the first time how Tottenham have done against every club they've ever played, in any competition, since the club entered the Football League. From Altrincham to York City, Spurs' complete record of matches against each club is looked at in detail and illustrated with pictures. Also included is a table of players who've played for both clubs and a 'fact file' highlighting the most surprising nuggets to be gleaned from this fresh way of interpreting the club's statistics. Did you know that Spurs won at Burnley only once in 29 games between 1926 and 1969? Or that Mansfield Town and Glossop are the only teams to have played Spurs competitively more than once and never lost? Do you remember, or have you heard about, the legendary 13-2 defeat of Crewe at Gresty Road in the FA Cup in 1960, or the 1958 match at Everton where Tottenham won 10-4 in an extraordinary victory that was Bill Nicholson's first game in charge and is still Spurs' highest score in a league game? And did you know that when Garth Crooks scored the winner for Tottenham at Anfield in March 1985, it was Spurs' first away win against Liverpool since the sinking of the Titanic 73 years earlier? All these facts and figures, along with countless others, are easily accessible in Tottenham Hotspur: Head to Head. This new addition to Breedon's well-respected stable of football statistics books has been meticulously researched and compiled. Comprehensive enough for the die-hard statto, yet readable enough for the armchair fan, it is sure to appeal to everyone with an interest in the history of this proud London club.
