Tottenham Hotspur’s trophy history is a rich story going back to their first title in 1900. Spurs have also added league, cup and European titles to the list of how many they have won yet.
The north London natives were even the first British team to secure a European trophy after Tottenham won the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup. It started an ongoing spell of British success on the continent. So, if you ever need reminding, here is every trophy from Tottenham’s history.
Tottenham Hotspur have won two top-flight trophies
Arthur Rowe oversaw the first top-flight title in Tottenham Hotspur’s trophy history after the manager guided Spurs to the Division One league title in 1950/51. Bill Nicholson would later put the north London club back atop the English football pyramid, again during Division One.
Tottenham won their maiden Division One league title during their first campaign back in the top-flight. Spurs edged Manchester United for the crown with 60 points from 42 games after 25 wins. The north London natives also scored 82 goals that term, while conceding just 44.
