EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photo print, we are transported back to the glorious moment when Danny Blanchflower, the esteemed captain of Tottenham Hotspur, triumphantly raises the FA Cup above his head. The year is 1961, and after a hard-fought battle against Leicester City in the final match, Spurs have emerged victorious with a resounding 2-0 win. This remarkable achievement not only secured their place as champions of English football but also marked their historic league and cup double. Surrounded by his jubilant teammates - Ron Henry, Bill Brown, Cliff Jones, Peter Baker, Terry Dyson, Bobby Smith, Les Allen and John White - Blanchflower exudes an air of pure elation. Their faces etched with determination and pride reflect the immense effort they put into reaching this pinnacle of success. This photograph encapsulates a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era in sport. It transports us to a time when football was played with grit and passion on muddy pitches under grey skies. The image evokes memories of simpler times when fans gathered at stadiums to witness these sporting heroes create moments that would be forever etched in history. As part of The Northcliffe Collection's archive capturing significant moments from British culture and society throughout the years, this print serves as both a reminder of past glories for Tottenham Hotspur fans and an enduring testament to the power that sports hold in shaping our collective memory.
