Southern League

The 1903–04 season was Tottenham's eighth season as a fully professional club and the 21st year in existence. They competed in two leagues, the main being the Southern Football League with a midweek game in the Western League along with competing in the FA Cup.

In the Southern League Tottenham began the season poorly and didn't manage a win until 10 October when they came up against Wellingborough. There was a bit of improvement in November, but the form took a drop in December. After the turn of the year Tottenham improved dramatically and were unbeaten in 12 games. This included a remarkable 7–4 home game against Reading. It wasn't till April when Tottenham went away to Portsmouth they lost 1–0. This was Spurs only loss in the second half of the season and they rose up the table to finish in second place.

The campaign in the Western League was a very successful one as Tottenham only lost twice all season. Those two losses were away games to Queens Park Rangers and Southampton. After winning 11 games, and drawing three they were crowned champions.

In the FA Cup they progressed past Everton in the first round winning 2–1. In the second round they were drawn at home to play Aston Villa. During that game with the Villa being 1–0 up, there was crowd trouble that occurred that escalated into a pitch invasion and the match was abandoned after 38 minutes.[1] The FA fined the club £350 and ordered the match to be replayed at Villa Park.[2] Tottenham managed to overcome Villa winning 1–0 with a goal from Jack Jones. The next round was a draw against The Wednesday (now Sheffield Wednesday). The first match was a home tie which finished 1–1 and needed a replay. At Hillsborough Spurs lost 2–0 and were kicked out of the cup.
