James Harris joins us to talk about his dad, their shared love of Tottenham and what it means to follow Spurs without him.

From childhood trips to White Hart Lane and arguments over favourite players to watching their final game together in hospital, James shares the memories that made Tottenham inseparable from their relationship. We talk about grief, missing the post-match phone calls, reconnecting with his brother and how writing about his dad helped him process his loss.

An honest, moving conversation about the club we inherit, the people we share it with and appreciating the time we have together.
