Last night will go down as one of the craziest and most embarrassing nights in Tottenham’s recent history as Spurs were dumped out of the FA Cup by Norwich City as Eric Dier stormed into the crowd to fight supporters.

Feel free to catalogue his mistakes as well… (makes for better reading)#THFC #THFCrap
