Fulham v Spurs – Match Reports

The Monday night televised game captured Jose Dominguez’ pass to Stephen Clemence in the 19th minute for the midfielder finish confidently to put Spurs into the driving seat in this FA Cup 3rd round at WHL against new manager Kevin Keegan’s Fulham side.  A corner was cleared to Ramon Vega, who went wide to put in a low ball that Colin Calderwood deflected over the line from point blank range to make it 2-0 in the 28th minute despite the Cottagers’ appeals handball.  Fulham almost got a goal back in the 35th minute, when John Trollope’s free-kick smacked against the woodwork, but their goal did come in the 53rd minute, as former Spur Neil Smith broke from midfield and volleyed in a cross from close range.

However, just eight minutes later, debutant Garry Brady headed a Dominguez cross against the post and it bounced in off goalkeeper Maik Taylor’s head.  Spurs almost added a fourth goal on a number of occasions with Klinsmann having three shots narrowly miss and substitute Paul Mahorn was denied by Taylor after a quick free-kick in the 83rd minute.

Two goals from Graham Roberts and Steve Archibald saw Spurs through to this tricky FA Cup Fourth round replay against Fulham in this London derby.

The replay saw Tony Parks take Clemence’s place and he had little to do as Spurs showed their superiority in winning 2-0 to reach the Fifth Round.  Fulham manager Malcolm Macdonald claimed Tottenham intimidated his young players following the bad-tempered first match, but Graham Roberts met Hoddle’s free-kick with his head after 35 minutes to put Spurs ahead, then Archibald hit the back of the net after Mark Falco had set him up nicely six minutes later.

Parks confidently dealt with the efforts on goal that Fulham could manage, but they were out-classed in the replay. Leaving them to concentrate on getting out of the Third Division.

It was a chilly Saturday afternoon that Spurs travelled to Craven Cottage for a Third Round FA Cup tie with Second Division Fulham.  Fulham were missing some of their more experienced players, so fielded a young team, who attacked Spurs as their form of defence.

John Reeves’ cross was headed wide by Tony Gale, Cliff Carr had a fizzing shot tipped over the bar by Ray Clemence and Gordon Davies’ near post header went narrowly wide as Fulham pressed for an opening goal.  Mark Falco forced Gale to clear off his own line, but the match revolved around a charge on Clemence by Jeff Hopkins that left the keeper carrying a shoulder injury.  Clem played on until he dived at the feet of Leroy Rosenior and the striker clattered into him forcing him to leave the field and for Graham Roberts to take the gloves in the 28th minute, which he needed on a particularly cold afternoon on the side of the Thames.

There was little to cheer, but Roberts made a full length dive to save a free-kick from Gale.  The stand-in keeper was put under pressure by Fulham in the closing stages and he dived at the feet of Rosenior as he bore down on goal.  The Spurs keeper came out of the match muddied from numerous saves he made, as Fulham tried to press home their advantage, but with a clean sheet intact he had earned a replay at White Hart Lane !

Spurs met Third Division Fulham in the League Cup Fourth Round and Malcolm Macdonald’s side gave Spurs a test, but ultimately failed to go on and win the tie.

Tottenham started spritely enough, with Graham Roberts going close with a header before Sean O’Driscoll made two goal-saving clearances on the Fulham goal-line.  The Cottagers played a style of football not often recognised at their level, as the game was open and free-flowing but Micky Hazard’s strike a few minutes before half-time was the deciding factor between the two sides.  Glenn Hoddle had broken through the middle of the Fulham side to provided Hazard with the chance.

In the 62nd minute, Gordon Davies had a good chance to score but shot over and Dean Coney looked certain to score until a last-minute Ossie Ardiles goal-line clearance averted the danger.  The visitors had late a penalty shout was surprisingly turned down by the referee as Fulham pressed for an equaliser and Tottenham could have scored more, but for a dogged display by the Fulham defence and goalkeeper Gerry Peyton’s performance.

This Division Two match with Fulham saw Spurs take a point back to North London. Tottenham took the lead after 10 minutes of the game with Peter Taylor converting John Duncan’s cross, after good work by Neil McNab.

Taylor had a chance to double the lead in the 33rd minute, when he dispossessed new signing Richard Money, rounded Gerry Peyton in goal and as he was poised to shoot, he lost control of the ball in the mud.  Fulham came into the game more and chances for former Spur John Margerrison and John Mitchell went begging, but the home side hit back with Brian Greenaway equalising in the dying minutes at the near post, after Tony Mahoney had headed on John Evanson’s cross.

A single Chris Jones goal settled this derby meeting in the Second Division, which was supposed to feature George Best in the visitors’ line-up, but he was missing from the starting XI.

Fulham were denied a goal when John Mitchell converted Teddy Maybank’s cross, but the referee pulled play back for a foul on Holmes by Maybank.  Spurs had to wait until late in the game for Terry Naylor, Peter Taylor and John Duncan to create a shooting opportunity for Jones to break Fulham’s resistance with a volley just fifteen minutes left.

Spurs won their last pre-season friendly at Craven Cottage against Fulham by a single goal.

A Ralph Coates free-kick was met superbly by Martin Peters’ header in the 34th minute to settle this friendly.  Fulham had their chances in a tightly contested match, with Pat Jennings saving well from Alan Slough and Peter Mellor was called into action to stop Phil Holder from scoring, while Ray Evans drive narrowly wide.

In December 1967, Spurs visited Craven Cottage and found Fulham struggling and sliding towards relegation at the end of the season.  The return Christmas fixture saw Spurs travel to Craven Cottage looking for something more than the point they had dropped at White Hart Lane.

The match was Frank Saul’s last in Tottenham colours and with Spurs having been frustrated by bad weather preventing them playing for three weeks, it was vital to get back on track.

It was the home side’s striker Les Barrett who put the Cottagers ahead following good set-up work by Allan Clarke, who allowed his fellow forward to score from a narrow angle.  Spurs were back on level terms in 38 minutes, when Cliff Jones rose above Tony Macedo and Jim Conway to head home the equaliser from Dennis Bond’s ball in.

With Fulham losing Haynes at the break as he was suffering from flu, his replacement Bobby Moss failed to trouble the Spurs defence as the England man might have.  Bond was once more the creator, pulling a low cross back to Jimmy Robertson to strike home from 25 yards.

With 12 minutes still left, Spurs kept Macedo busy with Robertson and Saul both bringing out the best in the goalkeeper.

Former Spurs man Vic Buckingham was manager  of Fulham when they visited White Hart Lane on Boxing Day 1967 and they faced a Spurs side without Jimmy Greaves’ three stitches in a head wound, picked up in a clash with Ronnie Boyce three days before, ruled him out of the game and Alan Gilzean came in to replace him.

The pitch was mostly muddy, but Jimmy Robertson had the benefit of a dry run on his wing in front of the West Stand, drawing a Fulham foul and from the free-kick, Dave Mackay picked out Cliff Jones to score in the 16th minute.  Robertson provided the ball into Jones to notch a second seven minutes later.

Joe Gilroy netted from a Johnny Haynes cross to make it 2-1 and shortly after the interval, Haynes created another goal, this time for Mark Pearson to score his first of the season to earn a 2-2 draw.

Venables was up against his old mate Fred Callaghan, playing for Fulham. The referee was very fussy, and when they thought they’d have a joke by pretending to have a fake fight with each other, the official sent them both off.  The players appealed to him, but he stuck by his decision and manager Bill Nicholson was furious with Venables.

Spurs took a three goal lead very early in the game thanks to two goals from Cliff Jones and Frank Saul.  However, half an hour into the match, it was all square and Jones completed his hat-trick before half-time.  It was an eventful game for the Welsh winger, who also bumped into the goalpost and broke some of his teeth in the process.

A goal in each half from Eddie Clayton and Dave Mackay earned Tottenham a 2-0 win at Craven Cottage.  Frank Saul set up Alan Gilzean, who could only shoot wide, then Jimmy Greaves was denied when Tony Macedo blocked his effort, who did the same again when Greaves tried to finish off a long dribble.  When Fulham attacked, Rodney Marsh brought a diving save from Bill Brown to keep the ball out.

It was in the 34th minute when Tottenham took the lead, when Gilzean played the ball into the penalty area where Saul and Macedo collided and Eddie Clayton was left with the simple task of curling the ball into the net just inside the left hand post from 10 yards out.  The Cottagers tried to grab an equaliser, but Brown once more saved from Marsh and then Alan Mullery blocked a shot by John Key on the goal-line.

Derek Possee had a shot that was headed off the line by Bobby Robson and it was Dave Mackay who secured the win, when he drove home from 25 yards out with 64 minutes gone.

A comical goal gave Spurs a point and left Fulham goalkeeper Tony Macedo red-faced, as his error deprived Fulham of a First Division win at White Hart Lane.

The visitors lead with a goal from Graham Leggat in this Easter Saturday meeting, but in the 74th minute, Macedo tauntingly offered the ball to Greaves in his extended hand, but the ball slipped from his grasp and dropped at Greavsie’s feet.  He made no mistake from close range and secured a draw with the embarrassing 74th minute goal for the Cottagers’ goalie.

Tottenham travelled to Craven Cottage and returned home with a 2-0 win.

Despite the first half ending without any scoring, Bill Brown had been called on to make some good saves.  Soon after the second half started, Jimmy Greaves saw a header come back off the crossbar.

The home side were reduced to ten men on 70 minutes, when Alan Mullery left the field with a shoulder injury, but Spurs could not break through the Fulham rear-guard until seven minutes from full time, with Cliff Jones scoring. Within a minute, Dave Mackay had made it 2-0.

Tottenham hosted Fulham in this Armistice Day meeting, with John White playing a key role in the 4-2 home win.

The little Scotsman headed Tottenham into the lead and then netted a second goal direct from a corner.  However, the Cottagers fought back with goals from Graham Leggatt and Johnny Haynes to level the scores, but it was a Cliff Jones header from a corner just before half-time that saw the teams turn around with Spurs ahead.

Into the second half, White was involved again, when he put a far post cross onto Dave Mackay’s head.  The Spurs midfielder rose above England full back George Cohen and powered his header past Tony Macedo to 4-2 Tottenham victory despite Fulham’s Alan Mullery twice hitting the woodwork.

With just nine matches to play, Spurs were stuttering in their charge for the title.  They made hard work of this match at Craven Cottage in front of a big crowd, but it was a closely fought match – the highlight being a Cook shot that knocked the helmet off a policeman.  The point from this draw meant Spurs had gained only six points from their last seven games and Sheffield Wednesday were now close behind in second place.

Both clubs sat in the top five of the First Division when they met at Craven Cottage.

Fulham had recently been promoted and were missing Maurice Cook, while Spurs had the nucleus of the side that would go on to such great success the following season.  Spurs took the lead from the penalty spot, when Derek Lampe had been guilty of a foul and Cliff Jones put the fifth minute spot-kick away.

Johnny Haynes picked out a fine pass to put Jimmy Hill through to equalise after a quarter of an hour and with Fulham forcing the game, a Hill shot deflected off Dave Mackay’s head, leaving Bill Brown grasping for the ball, but a hand diverted the shot over the bar, with many believing it was full-back Peter Baker who had done so.  The referee and linesmen must have been poorly positioned, as only a corner was awarded.

Alf Ramey’s free-kick found Les Medley beating the Cottagers’ defenders to head past the keeper, but it was not all good news for Tottenham, as Eddie Baily suffered an ankle injury before half-time, forcing him to leave the field and Spurs had to play on with ten men.  That gave Fulham the advantage, which they were not able to make the most of due to some fins defending by Tottenham, who still looked to go forward, creating some good opportunities.

Derek King played his first league game for the club, moving up from the A Team because of injuries and he shut out the Fulham forwards and looked to start forward moves with his passing from the back.

Two goals for the home side from Bill Richards and Bonzo Newton put them in the driving seat with just 25 minutes gone and Newton’s penalty knocked Spurs keeper Joe Nicholls flat, but it prevented the Cottagers going further ahead.
