Posts by On This Day in Spurs History…

This account has gone quiet mostly because of the excellent work by actual Spurs historians on Bluesky such as Gareth.

I set myself a goal at the start of February to celebrate the creations of Spurs fans every day of the month.

No matter what happens with Spurs, football, or the world, the support and love we show each other is ours to control.

Today’s recognition is for the Spurs Bluesky community 🤍
