How did two Argentine World Cup winners, a pair of Wembley classics and one unforgettable European night turn Tottenham Hotspur into one of English football’s defining teams of the early 1980s?Season 5 of By Far The Greatest Team continues with the story of Tottenham Hotspur between 1978 and 1984 — six years in which Spurs embraced international talent, rediscovered their taste for trophies and became pioneers both on and off the pitch.Jamie Rooney and Graham Dunn are joined by regular guest Stu Burgess to revisit the eventful reign of Keith Burkinshaw.Freshly promoted in 1978, Tottenham made an extraordinary statement by signing Argentina’s World Cup winners Osvaldo Ardiles and Ricky Villa. At a time when overseas footballers remained a rarity in England, their arrival brought ticker tape, global attention and a completely different footballing culture to White Hart Lane.The transition was not always easy, but Burkinshaw gradually assembled a wonderfully entertaining side. Glenn Hoddle supplied imagination and technical brilliance, Steve Perryman provided leadership, while Steve Archibald and Garth Crooks formed one of the most effective attacking partnerships in English football.Then came Wembley.Spurs defeated Manchester City after a replay to win the 1981 FA Cup, with Steve MacKenzie’s spectacular volley almost overshadowed by Ricky Villa’s extraordinary solo winner — one of the most celebrated goals in the competition’s history.Twelve months later, Tottenham returned to Wembley and defeated Queens Park Rangers, again after a replay, to retain the trophy. The football, the iconic kits and the unmistakable sound of Chas & Dave made Spurs one of the defining teams of the era.The story also contains a much darker warning. Tottenham’s 1981 semi-final against Wolves witnessed a serious crowd crush at Hillsborough, exposing safety failings that English football tragically failed to address properly.By 1983, Tottenham were changing away from the pitch as well. Under Irving Scholar, Spurs became the first European sports club floated on a stock exchange, embraced shirt sponsorship and participated in the first live Football League match shown on British television for 23 years.Football was becoming a television product and a global business — and Tottenham were standing near the front of that transformation.The era concluded with the 1984 UEFA Cup.Following a dramatic run through Europe, Spurs faced Anderlecht in a two-legged final. Graham Roberts forced the decisive equaliser at White Hart Lane before goalkeeper Tony Parks became the hero of the penalty shootout.It was Tottenham’s third major trophy under Burkinshaw — and his final match as manager.Along the way, Jamie, Graham and Stu explore the near-miss involving Diego Maradona, Hoddle’s emergency appearances in goal, the evolution of Tottenham’s famous Le Coq Sportif and Umbro kits, the later controversy surrounding Anderlecht and Burkinshaw’s memorable farewell:“There used to be a football club over there.”Finally, this talented, innovative and occasionally chaotic Tottenham side faces the question asked of every team on By Far The Greatest Team:How great were they?🔑 TakeawaysWhy the signings of Osvaldo Ardiles and Ricky Villa represented a landmark moment for English footballHow Keith Burkinshaw rebuilt Tottenham following promotionThe importance of Glenn Hoddle, Steve Perryman, Garth Crooks and Steve ArchibaldThe stories behind Tottenham’s unforgettable 1981 and 1982 FA Cup triumphsHow football kits, television and Chas & Dave helped define the identity of the teamThe disturbing safety warning provided by the 1981 Hillsborough crowd crushTottenham’s pioneering move onto the stock exchange and the growing commercialisation of footballThe dramatic route to the 1984 UEFA CupWhether three major trophies and enormous cultural influence made this Tottenham side genuinely greatJoin UsSubscribe to By Far The Greatest Team wherever you get your podcasts and head over to our YouTube channel, where you can watch the show and discover additional football-history rabbit holes.Visit the By Far The Greatest Team website for accompanying stories, articles, typical starting XIs and the growing Greatness Index as we continue asking:How great were they?If you enjoy these podcasts, please don’t forget to subscribe, give us a rating and tell everyone about them!If you enjoy these podcasts, please don't forget to subscribe and give us a rating and also tell everyone about them!
