Founded in 1882, Tottenham
won the FA Cup
for the first
time in 1901, making them
the only
non-League
club to do so since the
formation
of the Football
League.
Tottenham were the first
club in the 20th century to
achieve the League
and FA
Cup Double, winning both
competitions
in the 1960–61
season. After successfully
defendingthe FA Cup in 1962, in
1963 they became
the first
British club to win a UEFA
club competition –
the European Cup Winners'
Cup. In 1967 they won
the
FA Cup for a
third time in the 1960s. In
the 1970s
they won the
League Cup on two occasions
and
were the inaugural winners
of the UEFA Cup in 1972,
becoming the first British
club to
win two different
major European trophies. In the
1980s Spurs won
several
trophies:
the FA Cup twice, Community
Shield
and the UEFA Cup in
1984. In the 1990s they
won the
FA Cup and the
League Cup. When they won
the
League Cup once
more in2008, it meant that they had
won a major trophy in each
of the last six decades
– an achievement only
matched by Manchester
United.
