On Wednesday 5th February we welcome footballer turned manager, and sports commentator David Pleat.
David has lived a life at the heart of football. From his debut as an England Schoolboy international in 1960 to his time as a scout for Tottenham Hotspur up to 2024, his is a story that touches every facet of the professional game. At Luton Town, he is perhaps best remembered for dancing on the pitch after a win over Manchester City secured the club’s top-flight survival in 1983. However, his fifteen years at Kenilworth Road were about much more than that.
In 1986, David was given his shot at the big-time at Tottenham. But for a fabricated tabloid scandal, his sole season as manager, which featured a third-placed finish, an FA Cup final and a League Cup semi-final, might have been the start of a transformation at White Hart Lane. After spells at Leicester City and Sheffield Wednesday, David twice returned to Tottenham.
