Timao, does that mean you just live in Crouch End now, or were you brought up there? I'm interested because my childhood was spread across Muswell Hill, Wood Green and Crouch End (with a bit of Spain and Cornwall chucked in).

I went to secondary school at St. Thomas More in Wood Green.

They have an old building for the 1st and 2nd years and a new building for 3rd upwards. (At least that was how it was in the old days)

The new building is actually on White Hart Lane!

To all those that were born in Tottenham - dont worry. I think its actually true there are more Arsenal fans that live in Tottenham, well South Tottenham anyway, then Spurs.

They are lucky they had a choice, you are a very generous father

Born in exile in Essex.... but mum was Hackney born and bred, sister was born in Finsbury Park and dad was brought up just down from Highbury & Islington station (although born in Clapham).

Worst thing anyone ever said to me was when i said how much i enjoyed singing "maybe its because I'm a Londoner at matches" - and my mum said, "why, cos you're not!!". It really hurt - and I do envy you guys who were born there....!!

Brought up in North London since the age of 4 (though born in Ealing, so probably should've been a Brentford fan by birth). Live up in Notts these days, so I get to more away games in the Midlands and North than home ones. Usually a decent atmosphere away though.
