Saturday's win at Luton Town was an historic one as it sealed our best-ever start to a Premier League season after eight games.
Edging the Hatters 1-0 at Kenilworth Road in our first ever meeting with them in the Premier League thanks to Player of the Match Micky van de Ven's maiden Spurs strike, the three points picked up in Bedfordshire made it 20 points collected from a possible 24 so far - our best-ever start to a top flight campaign since it's 1992 rebrand.
With six wins and two draws from our first eight, it sees us surpass our next best start, 2018/19, as we took 18 points from our opening eight, winning six and losing two.
That season, we went on to finish fourth in the top flight with 71 points accumulated from our 38 outings while we also reached our first ever Champions League final.
