We are graced with true Spurs royalty on Off The Shelf this week 👑
Joining Milesy and Ben Haines on the podcast is lifelong fan, generational football talent, former England manager and a person who transcends the beautiful game, Glenn Hoddle 🤍
Growing up as a football-obsessed kid, Glenn describes how he fell in love with the Club, progressing through our youth system into the first team and onto being a leading light in one of the most successful sides in the Club's history.
An incredible player and character, hear how our playmaker starred in our 1981 FA Cup triumph before scoring in both the final and final replay the following season to help us to consecutive FA Cups and how he was the architect behind our 1984 UEFA Cup glory (even being man-marked and swapping shirts with one of the greatest players to ever play the sport) 🏆
With a goal package and highlight reel for the ages, the 53-cap England star left the Club with an unforgettable legacy across his 4️⃣9️⃣0️⃣ appearances in Lilywhite - still in our top five of all time - and went on to have playing success with AS Monaco before managerial stints in the Premier League - including a return to Spurs - either side of managing the Three Lions 🏴
Tune in to relive the magic of Glenn's illustrious career, the behind-the-scenes anecdotes from a player who's achieved so much and understand why he remains a true icon who touched the hearts of Spurs fans everywhere.

In awe of the glittering lights of White Hart Lane in north London in the late 1960s, 'Fenners' was hooked from the moment he set eyes on the charming Lane and it was sealed for life after witnessing his first game from the iconic Shelf against Burnley 🤍
Our Press Officer from 1984, the first-ever in England's top flight, 'Fenners' reveals the incredible stories from working with the legendary Bill Nicholson - whose contribution to the Club's history will surely never be surpassed - to the different methods in place at that time in football media such as press conferences and player signings - namely Osvaldo 'Ossie' Ardiles and Ricky Villa 🇦🇷✍️ - and keeping Spurs fans all over the world up-to-date with Club news through a monthly newspaper, Spurs News, in a time before the internet 📰
He then discusses working with managers like Martin Jol, talents like the irresistible David Ginola and reflects on his reputation amongst Spurs players and legends he worked with down the years who hold him in such high regard. This is a fascinating insight into Spurs from a whole new perspective from a real character who did so much for the Club!
