Jonny Blain from An Echo of Glory joins me as we reminisce about the inaugural Premier League season 92/93. It was a season that...eventually....provided some great hope as the Anderton-Barmby-Sheringham trio set White Hart Lane alight in Spring. We discussed scoring 4 goals in 5 minutes against Southampton and Nayim's hat-trick at Man City. However, it was ultimately a season of disappointment as Arsenal got FA Cup SF revenge. And what about the Fiorucci Cup?!

There's some cultural references too - Gladiators, Ghost Watch and WWF.

Paul Gascoigne and Gary Lineker are two of the greatest players to have performed in lilywhite in the club's history. Gazza arrived in Summer 1988 and Lineker a year later and they formed one of the great Spurs attacking partnerships while also starring for England at Italia 90. What were they like to watch and to play alongside? My guests for this episode were Guy Butters, a teammate of both and esteemed South American Football journalist Tim Vickery who was a regular at White Hart Lane during this period.

We discuss the state of Spurs in the late 80s before they arrived, a little about Guy's Spurs career, Gazza and Lineker's individual traits and what made them such a potent partnership for club and country.

Read more of Guy's memories of Spurs and about Gazza and Lineker's arrivals in the 80s in my book Hot Shot Tottenham.
