Unofficial English Champions Tottenham Hotspur had managed to hold on to their title with draws against Chelsea and Southampton but would need to be on their toes for the visit of 'the Crazy Gang' from Wimbledon.
There is actually a debate around who constitutes the Crazy Gang. In wider culture, it was a nickname for Wimbledon in general. Some say it only applies to the 1988 FA Cup winning team. There are some further who say it applies only to the trio of Dennis Wise, Vinnie Jones and John Fashanu. Either way, Wimbledon were not a side anyone took lightly.
Details are sparse for this game but all that really needs to be known is Efan Ekoku scored two for Wimbledon and Jurgen Klinsmann pulled one back for Spurs.
Never considered fashionable but Wimbledon were now English Champions.
