White Hart Lane is one of football’s most-loved venues, but soon the ground as we know it will be gone. Tottenham are building a splendid new arena next door. Whatever the future holds, match day will seem quite different. The same patch of green in N17 has been Spurs’ home since 1899. In ‘A Love for The Lane’, we revisit some of the greatest matches ever to have taken place there, through the eyes of the legendary players who graced the turf. Terry Dyson – a hero of the 1961 Double team – explains how it feels to be the only man to score a hat-trick for Spurs against Arsenal, while Darren Anderton reminisces about Jürgen Klinsmann’s incredible home debut in 1994. Harry Redknapp relives the glory of Gareth Bale’s destruction of reigning European Champions Inter Milan in 2010 while Alan Mullery and Micky Hazard re-call lifting the UEFA Cup in front of their home fans in 1972 and 1984. Esteemed captain Steve Perryman recounts his two sensational goals against AC Milan, and we also travel back to The Lane’s very first match, Spurs' biggest home victories, and their magnificent title triumphs of 1951 and 1961.

I would highly recommend this book to any football fan, especially if they are a Tottenham fan. The book brings back some great memories of some of the best games every played at White Hart Lane. The story of each game is told through the eyes of former players and managers that were involved in each game and includes some really interesting insight into each game.

4.0 out of 5 stars Could do with some colour photographs
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 May 2017
A great book for any Spurs fan.
There's a good mix of history and comment.
I'm giving a 4 star rating because of the lack of colour photographs - the black and white photographs make WHL look bleak.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 May 2017
A detailed account of memorable home games that are well chosen and start from the first Lane game and ends with the 5-3 v Chelsea. Comments made from influential commentators and former Spurs related players and managers are a treat.
