YE1 Daily: 1995/96
Manage episode 261623018 series 2594613
Spurs' 1995/96 campaign began with a bizarre Intertoto Cup escapade, as a squad made up of "the youth team, a couple of reserves, and some mercenaries" took to Brighton for two 'home fixtures', and succumbed to the club's heaviest ever competitive defeat out in Cologne, arriving home to news that UEFA had then banned us from Europe.
The ban was later lifted, while Gerry Francis' first full season played out solidly, though narrow failure to qualify for the 1996/97 UEFA Cup, and a disappointing FA Cup exit on penalties prevented the campaign from being anything exceptional.
