Oh God yes, Sunderland in 1977 is one of my earliest memories because it was so traumatic. 9 years old and watching the Spurs that had been my bedtime stories since I was 3, going meekly down to the second division to Sunderland.A bit of time travel to the mid to late 1970's Spurs would be cathartic.
Stuff so bad it was actually fun to endure.
What really hurt though was seeing my Old
Man broken by it.
Still, from the ashes a Phoenix arose and the decade after that were amongst the most glorious in our history.
