My Spurs Experience - Tony Cottee

 

West Ham United legend Tony Cottee scored 146 goals in Claret and Blue, but none were more memorable than his first.

Debutant Cottee was just 17 when he reacted quickest after Joe Gallagher's header had been tipped onto the crossbar by Ray Clemence, leapt and nodded the ball into the unguarded Tottenham Hotspur net. The goal kicked-off a 336-game career that saw the striker become an all-time great in his native east London.

Nearly 37 years on, TC sat down with West Ham TV to reminisce over his unforgettable maiden appearance, his knack of scoring landmark goals against Spurs and recent wins over the Hammers' near neighbours and rivals.
