Tottenham in the Premiership
Tottenham
have been members of the Premier League for every
season since its formation, but most have them
have brought disappointment. Spurs are the only
Premiership team never to have finished in either
the top six or the bottom six of the table. Their
highest finish was seventh place in 1995, and
in 1999 they won the League Cup. All of the club's
other seasons have brought mid table finishes
and seen a succession of unpopular managers leave
the club after their unsuccessful efforts to restore
the glory days to White Hart Lane. Since 1992,
managers Doug Livermore, Ossie Ardiles, Gerry
Francis, Christian Gross, George Graham, Glenn
Hoddle, David Pleat and Jacques Santini have all
been unable to mount a serious challenge for even
a UEFA Cup place. Having said that, some of the
Premiership's finest players had appeared for
Tottenham in the last decade or so. They include
Jürgen Klinsmann, Les Ferdinand, David Ginola,
Teddy Sheringham, Darren Anderton and the now
despised Sol Campbell.
Manager
Martin Jol has finally given Spurs something to
look forward to.
