From Sean Byrne : Paul Davis/ Tardelli on O’Leary

Hi Myles,

I love your site and your excellent articles.

Sorry to be a pedant but his debut was a 2-1 win at the Lane in 1980.

Sunderland and Vaessen for Arsenal and Chris Jones for Spurs.

It was on Easter Monday just before they played Juventus in the Cup Winners Cup. Their team was at the match and the Spurs supporters applauded their team coach up Tottenham High Road.

Thanks, Sean!

Juventus? Was that the game where Tardelli stamped on  David O’Leary’s foot?
