My guest is journalist Kat Lucas, whose new book Tottenham From the Lane chronicles the story of Tottenham Hotspur at its historical home in London, N17. We discuss the foundation of the club and its distinctive name, some of the highlights of its time at the old White Hart Lane, prospects for its future in the new stadium and, of course, its rivalry with Arsenal.
Disclosure: Kat and I share the same publisher, Pitch Publishing, which released my first book, Origin Stories: The Pioneers Who Took Football to the World last year.
