History | Arthur Rowe and the Hungarian influence on our 'push and run' football

[mawspurs]

The role of Arthur Rowe at our great club can never be underestimated.

Spurs through and through, born in Tottenham in 1906, Rowe achieved the dream of both playing and managing his boyhood team. He made 201 appearances for us in all competitions between 1929-1939, then, as manager, led us to our first Division One title in 1950/51, a season after his team stormed back into the top flight via the Division Two title in 1949/50.

But it was more than that.

Yes I started going down the lane in 1955 and caught some of the players and tactics. Grateful I was able to see some of the games. With the big crowds youngsters were often passed over the heads to sit in front of this wall.
Then after Arthur Rowe, Billy Nic came and took us back to champions. Grate times. I can envisage Ange taking us back up there.
