'It was like being hit by a tank!' - Teddy on Gazza, Spurs v Millwall, 1988

Teddy Sheringham first stepped out at the Lane as a Millwall player almost 30 years ago.

Promoted from the old Division Two, the Lions were in third place after a superb start to their first season in Division One when they arrived at the Lane on December 10, 1988.

In the end, goals from Gazza and Chris Waddle saw us home to a 2-0 win and we’d go on to finish third in 1988-89 while Millwall, who topped the table early in the season, finished a commendable 10th with Teddy and Tony Cascarino firing in the goals.
