I'm trying to remember the players.
Martin KelnerGUEST
Bobby Moore, Jimmy Greaves, Clyde Best and Brian Deer.
Martin KelnerGUEST
They all...
Martin KelnerGUEST
Four of the best.
Jim BrownHOST
Three down at half-time.
Jim BrownHOST
Cliff Jones, Dave Mackay, and Jimmy Greaves.

Andy P.W.HOST
On the right wing, we've got Cliff Jones, the Welshman.
Andy P.W.HOST
centre forward we've got Bobby Smith wearing number 9 Jimmy Greaves wearing the number 10 really in what I suppose you'd call a sort of inside left position and Terry Dyson out on the left wing so that's the Spurs lineup and looking at this team sheet there aren't any subs named so I'm guessing in these days it was just you're 11 and you sort of muddle through with that And, of course, the famous manager for Tottenham, Bill Nicholson.
Neil PrenticeGUEST
