And that's one thing I didn't mention so I thank you for reminding me in some of your comments: the flight over is brilliant (even if it is Ryanair), the early rise and the day-long anticipation. I was awaiting the home game to Burnley this season with so much excitement and wasn't let down thanks to a live one man wonder show from Robbie Keane. 2-0 up at half time. Looking good. Super Pav does it again. Fiona, I’ve just joined that club on Facebook, good idea; NI Yiddos unite!!

I am a Bronze member from Belfast and I get over to the lane at least 3 times a year. Been supporting the mighty spurs since I was 4 (born 1981) and my first major match was the 'cupset' of 1987 (poor mabbsy!)...didn't take too long before we put that right though ;-) I can honestly say there is no better feeling than going to the lane...the early rise, the flights and train trips and the arrival on Tottenham High Road just get better every time (not to mention the greasy fry up in the Hotspur Cafe!!). I have finally persuaded my good lady (who i already have decked out in Spurs gear lol) to come with me on my next trip to the lane to see why i give so much of my time and passion to the spurs...roll on March 13th!! COYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great Story!

Its difficult bein a spurs fan when you live so far away, I've supported them for 20 years now, since 1990 when I first got into football. But have yet to get to the Lane, I don't know anyone here that supports spurs none of my family or friends do. I joined a supporters group here in Ballymena a few years back but I was the only girl there so that was weird, I didn't stay long lol I run a spurs group on Facebook for fans of the club from NI and it has over 100 memners now :) Nice story Niall.

I doff my blue and white bobble hat in your honour, I only wish that during a trip to Dublin recently I wasn't sat next to a gooner bedecked in his Ronald McDonald outfit!

I would only take the writer up on one point though. We are and always have been great, but we shall be even greater sometime soon. By the way. My brother has just taken out a membership and there are over 26,000 waiting for a season ticket at the moment. The queue is growing all the time! COME ON YOU SPURS.
