I have always had the deepest respect for Bill Nicholson as a person and as a manager. The Spurs boss is an honest Yorkshireman and you will go a long way before finding a straighter character than that. Bill has never wavered in his determination to give White Hart Lane fans the best.

Just go out and drop a few hand grenades all over the place, son. (to Kevin Keegan)
Bill Shankly
I was the best manager in Britain because I was never devious or cheated anyone. I’d break my wife’s legs if I played against her, but I’d never cheat her.

Train the right way. Help each other. It's a form of socialism without the politics.
Bill Shankly
If you can't support us when we lose or draw, don't support us when we win
