Tottenham Hotspur F.C. – A Brief Summary

Tottenham Hotspur is an English football club based in the North London district of Tottenham, currently playing in the English Premier League, finishing the ‘08-’09 season in eighth place. They are known as The Spurs or just Spurs for short.

One of the oldest clubs in English football, Tottenham Hotspur wear all white with navy blue trim.

The club’s emblem is a cockerel standing on top of a football.

The original incarnation of what would become the club known today was a boys’ team called the Hotspur Football Club formed by members of a bible class at the nearby All Hallows Church.

The club’s name comes from the historical figure Sir Henry Percy, otherwise known as Harry Hotspur, who was immortalized in Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part I, and is probably more familiar as that character than he is as an actual historical personage. Henry Percy was a resident of the Tottenham area in his day. In addition, Hotspur is famous for his quick temper, fiery personality and prowess as a warrior, making him a natural choice to be adopted as the patron-in-name of a football team.

Tottenham Hotspur turned professional formally in the winter of 1895, as a member of the old Southern League.

The Spurs were elected to Second Division of the Football League in 1908 and followed that achievement immediately with promotion to the First Division in 1909. They fared poorly over the next several years, sitting in last place when football was suspended for the duration of World War I.

When the sport resumed play after WWI in 1919, Tottenham played in the Second Division while Arsenal, who had finished in sixth in 1914, were called up to the expanded First. This, on top of the physical proximity of the two clubs, created a fierce rivalry that remains to this day as one of the most impassioned in the English leagues. Tottenham has played consistently in the Premier League since its formation in 1992.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham Hotspur plays its home matches at White Hart Lane, a fully enclosed rectangular stadium in the London district for which the team is named. The club’s residence there began in 1899, when the complex was adapted from its previous purpose, a plant nursery which had become seldom used, and renovated into a football pitch with rudimentary seating space for several thousand spectators. The early 20th century saw a number of renovation and construction projects to the Lane, eventually resulting in the modern stadium as it presently exists, with a seating capacity of 36,310. There are plans in the works to replace White Hart Lane with a substantially larger stadium on the same ground in the near future.

Tottenham Hotspur Manager

The Spurs’ current manager is Harry Redknapp, who has managed a number of English teams over the course of his career including Portsmouth, Southampton and West Ham United. Redknapp was brought in to manage the club in October of the past season(08-09) after an extremely poor showing from the team at the start of the season had left them in the relegation zone. Redknapp reversed the trend and led the team to considerable success over the course of the season, instilling a solid tactical sensibility and a strong self-confidence the team had lacked. In addition he has brought in such notable players as Jermain Defoe, Robbie Keane, and most recently, Peter Crouch.
