Dunno what the attendance was but I was in there, Spurs at home, lost...was it 1-0? I remember Lineker scoring a beauty and us singing his name as he was taken off, his last game before going to Japan.

I was absolutely gutted at the end. Not because of Lineker.

Edit: right, forgot about Norman's testimonial.
