Pub rockers Chas and Dave—both lifelong Spurs fans—had been the creative 'genius' behind the '81 songs, and their second effort in what would become a decade-long musical association with the club was another hit that was repeated on the radio and the terraces in the build-up to the 1982 cup final and beyond.

Already, however, the cracks were beginning to show when it came to rhyming certain words that were rather integral to the songs. After (just about) getting away with "Ossie's going to Wembley/He's legs have gone all trembly" the previous year, this time around it was "Tottenham! Tottenham! No one can stop them" which caused no little amount of wincing.

Still, the tune was another hit, and once more Spurs did indeed bring home the cup as promised, this time via another replay, against fellow Londoners Queens Park Rangers on this occasion.
