Tottenham were actually formed out of an old cricket club in 1882. They were a non-league club when they won their first FA Cup title in 1901, the only team ever to achieve this and probably the reason why they are so synonymous with the competition to this day.

That was the first of eight FA Cup titles, to which they have added two League Championships (1951 and 1961 - the year they did the Double), three League Cup's, two Uefa Cup's and the Cup Winners' Cup.

The team has not been the force of old in recent years but they hope to build a side capable of winning trophies both at home and abroad.

Fast Fact: Spurs won the FA Cup in 1901 as a non-league club, the only team ever to achieve this honour.

Fast Fact: Spurs were the first football club to float shares on the London Stock Exchange in 1983.
