Customer Reviews

Fantastic Encyclopaedic updated edition!
Bob Goodwin's latest edition of "Tottenham Hotspur:The Complete Record" is a fantastic encyclopaedic update to the 1988 and 1993 editions, which in recent years have been much sought after and have been sold for several times the original value.

This edition is glossier, bulkier and presented in a bright and easy to read finish. There really is nothing more you could wish to know about Spurs history from Day One, and Bob has provided an account of recent years which does not brush over the facts.

If you want to know who played, who scored, how many watched and how Spurs got on in Leagues and Cups down the years, then this is the book for you. Every Spurs home should have one!

Good but a strange omission
Bob IS the Spurs historian so it's no surprise this is the book to head for when a Tottenham fact is needed. Many hours have been spent putting this together. One strange omission, their Inter Toto Cup games from 1995 are completely missing.

Lillywhites
Excellent for those "When was that?" questions for all Lillywhite fans and supporters. Tremendous value.
