Nine if you count Wigan's (obviously handballed) goal.

my first spurs game i ever went to, unbelievable.

[@creativeamerican8811]

Trystan Davies Lucky you! Just realised you are called Trystan and I actually support spurs cos of my old mate Toby and his brother Tristan. Was just gonna say, my first few games were draws. Back in the 90’s.. Wimbledon , Coventry... Chris Armstrong with some goals. Been to quite a few in my time now tho thinking about it , Real Madrid few years back was the best but spurs 5 Fulham 1 dec 2007.. maybe.. that was a great game. Always loved Huddlestone and he laced a few in that day. Could have had a hat trick but set up Defoe. Anyway ramble. COYS

Aaron Lennon with three assists and a goal. Gets nowhere near the respect he deserves (and don't get me started about not giving him a testimonial)

[@char6364]

@@VillaFanFTW That 'awful' manager was the only one to beat Spurs at White Hart Lane with that awful team the season after this, did it again two years later then won the FA Cup. And when have Belgium ever been the best international team? They weren't the best in 2018 (France) and weren't the best at the Euros (Italy). Unfortunately for Belgium they ran up against both in the knockout stages, but only lost by one goal on both occasions.

I was there that day. was about 8 or 9 years old. One of my first games i went to. My family said what will the score be? I said "10-0" loudly as i was young and naive. If Defoe scored the shot that hit the cross bar and the handball goal wasn't given i'd be right

[@jimmygrieves2909]

For all you youngsters out there - this is NOT Spurs biggest top flight win - it may be their biggest Premier win but Football has been around for a Century before we decided to call it the Premier in 1993. In the late 50's , Spurs beat Everton 10 - 4 at White Hart Lane, I believe it was Bill Nicholson's first game in charge - what an entrance !!

[@a.m.armstrong8354]

The Wigan goal would be disallowed now.

[@InternetVegetable8541]

Should have been disallowed then, it was such a blatant handball you could see it in real time. The standard of refereeing during this era was so unbelievably poor, it was probably what lead to the horrible VAR shite we have now.

[@crazycattheboss]

Harry Kane and William Defoe both started with the number 18 and both became the Spurs all-time top scorers. Coincidence? I think so.
