Spurs v Bolton Wanderers Notes
01.04.1904 John “Tiny” Joyce’s goal from the penalty spot was his only first class career goal for Tottenham.  He remains the only Spurs keeper to score a goal in a League match.
03.12.2011 The teams and crowd performed a minute’s applause for former Bolton Wanderers player Gary Speed before the match following his suicide the previous week.
21.03.2012 The Sixth Round FA Cup tie at White Hart Lane was abandoned after Bolton midfielder Fabrice Muamba collapsed on the pitch with cardiac arrest.  There had been 41 minutes played and the score was 1-1 at the time.  The player was given CPR on the pitch and his heart was not beating by itself for 78 minutes before he received treatment at the London Chest Hospital and he made a quick recovery.
