WE PUT together the 'Greatest Spurs Moments' series last summer expecting, as always, a huge response - but we didn't expect the variety of moments that we would receive.

In the end, the series was changed to 'Your 100 Greatest Spurs Moments' but we've realised that we will not be able to run every one.

So we've put together a list of the top 100 moments - found below - and will run the top 10, as voted by you, over the next two weeks.

Thanks again for your terrific response...

YOUR 100 GREATEST SPURS MOMENTS: TOP 10

NUMBER FIVE: NIELSEN'S LATE, GREAT HEADER WINS THE CUP
Dateline: March 21, 1999
Venue: Wembley Stadium
Match: Worthington Cup Final, Tottenham Hotspur 1 Leicester City 0

Our first trophy in eight years came in thrilling style as Allan Nielsen's injury time winner saw us clinch glory with 10 men.

The final is almost remembered as much for Justin Edinburgh's unfortunate red card for a nothing clash with Robbie Savage - indeed, Savage has now apologised for the incident that saw him clutch his face after Edinburgh's swipe caught his hair.

It meant we had 30 minutes and the possibility of extra time with 10 men but, with Ramon Vega playing arguably his best game for us, we weren't to be denied.

With seconds left, Steffen Iversen found the legs to run down the line and cut the ball back, it was half-cleared and late-arriving Nielsen was on the spot to head home.

Here are your memories...

My Greatest Spurs Moment is when they beat Leicester 1-0 in the 1999 League Cup Final. Spurs did not enjoy much luck in the League and Cup matches then but the arrival of George Graham in 1999 briefly relived Spurs fortunes. We were playing against a very good Leicester side but a late goal by Allan Nielsen brought great joy and relief to long suffering Spurs fans. Richard Soh.

My favourite Spurs moment was when Allan Nielsen scored the winner against Leicester in the Worthington cup success. Fahad Saeed, Walthamstow.

My greatest moment as a Spurs fan is when we won the Worthington Cup in 1999. It was the first trophy I saw us win. Richie Raynor.
