Bonetti, Webb, McCreadie, Hollins, Dempsey, Harris, Cooke, Hudson, Osgood, Hutchinson, Houseman. (not the actual 1970 F A Cup winning team as Hudson was injured and Baldwin played).
One for JohnBoy Spurs 1961 Double winning team here goes Brown Henry LB? Blanchflower Norman Mackay Medwin or Dyson White Smith Greaves Jones
Baker was rb, Henry lb .. Greaves was not in the side; he signed for the next season from Italy, by coincidence, the same year Ramsey's Tractor Boys won the league, the first and so far only time a club in its first ever season in the top division achieved this feat . Les Allen of 'clan Allen' was the number 10, moved to 9 at the expense of Smith when Greaves arrived ... sorry !!!!!!!!!!!
Ah yes, cheers Lincs and If that was done without googling RESPECT I'm not worthy :0)
My dad was an Ipswich fanatic, he took me to many games during that magic season .. the Spurs side of 60/61 was WELL known to most boys of that era, they were the pin up boys as double winners, Greaves was infamous for his indiscretions in Italy following his move from Chelsea .. he reportedly moved from AC Milan to Spurs for £99,999, Nicholson didn't want him to be the first £100,000 player .. if memory serves, that distinction went a few weeks later to Denis Law from Torino to Man Utd
Kudos to you RC, no time to Google it! Bonus point for opponents and the significance of the game.
It's getting late AUN the grey matter ain't what it used to be and matron will want me to turn this off in a minute so my first guess is England & Quarter final World Cup which we won? Edit : the quarter final not the competition :-)
Close, tournament opener when the plucky Africans beat the fancied Argies. Lovely!
Would never have got that in a million years. Didn't that 40 year old striker Roger Millar play for Cameroon?
He came on as a late sub in that game but started the second group game and the rest is his history. He was 38 when he was recalled to the national squad, answering the call of the country's President no less.

I remember Lineker referring to the Cameroons as the Maceroons .. say that now Gary and you'd get 10 years hard labour, stripped of your OBE and your stripes by the BBC and a lifetime Fatwah would be on yer 'ead by everyone from the Fabians to Lord OOOOOzzzzzeeeeley
If not the first team I saw it was very early on so 62/63 season.
I remember Hewie, Lucas, Glover, Peacock and Ryan playing that season too. Hewie would have replaced Stocks, Lucas Kennedy, Glover or Peacock Kinsey and Ryan Matthews.
SECOND EDIT: I left out Brian Ord who didn't play much but got me into trouble although he obviously would have no idea! He'd replaced an injured Mike Bailey and was himself injured and rolling around on the little track in front of the East Terrace whilst I was perched on the little fence almost directly in line with him. Charlie Hall, or perhaps it was Jock Basford then, came on and Ord said "it's my fucking knee" and spent the rest of the match hobbling around on the wing as they did back then.
I got home and re-enacted what I'd seen, as was my habit, and all went well until I plummeted to the living room floor clutching my knee and yelling "it's my fucking knee!"
Back then (in my house anyway) swearing in the home in front of your mother and grandmother was frowned upon and I was duly chastised!
