Spurs were of course Cup holders and 'the Pride of te South had bestowed on them by the press nearly eighteen earlier upon winning the Southern League.

Spurs manager Terry Neil once said 'I'm not superstitious or anything like that but I'll just hope we'll play our best and put it in the laps of the Gods.
