Most celebrities use football as a means to enhance
their image, but a few celebrity Spurs fans deserve a mention for either
going to the games and or being top celebs anyway (and/or both)
SPECIAL CELEBRITY SPURS FANS
Neil
Pearson - star of Drop the Dead Donkey and other stuff - sits on the lower
Shelf and travels away with Spurs and has done for many years even through
the dark days and deserves his position at the top of the tree
Danny Kelly
(TV & Radio Presenter & owner of Football365) - Real Tottenham man
and sometime reader of TOPSPURS
Norman Jay OBE
(DJ & Shelfside regular)
Charles Hodges & David
Peacock (Rockney Musicians) Chas n Dave need no
introduction after being associated with the club since 1981 when they got to
No 5 in the charts with Ossies Dream (a song still sung on the terraces
today). Also recorded Tottenham Tottenham in 1982, Hot Shot Tottenham in 1987
and both the banned "Victory Song" and "its lucky for Spurs
when the year ends in one" in 1991. A Chas n Dave concert is always a
Tottenham affair and they are Tottenham through and through with Spurs
references in many of their songs
Peter Cook RIP
(Comedian extraordinaire & Tottenham through and through)
Simon Mayo
(DJ - Was the first person to play the Victory Song on the Radio 1, and his
THFC credentials far outweigh the sometimes sadness of his day job which he
cannot help being a DJ)

Matthew Horne (actor
comedian, Paxton ST holder)
Henry Kelly (Slick
game show Host and TV and Radio presenter) - used to do the half time draws
at matches in the 1980's
Warren Mitchell RIP
(Actor) - White Hart Lane regular for years, despite playing a West Ham fan
on TV for much of his life
Charlie
Whelan (Former righthandman to the useless Gordon Brown) - Has strong Spurs
credentials and earned his place at the top table by citing Pratt's 30 yarder
at Notts County in 1978 as his favourite Spurs goal in a recent programme
