The 1907–08 season was Tottenham's twelfth season as a fully professional club and the 25th 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.

This was Tottenham's final season in these two leagues as they would be elected to the Football League for the 1908–09 season.

Tottenham appointed a referee Fred Kirkham as team manager right at the end of the previous season with two matches left to play in April 1907. Kirkham went to serve the club in this capacity for the 1907–08 season.

Tottenham had an uneventful campaign in the Southern League and finished in seventh place. The reserves fared much better in the Western League B table. The start of the campaign Tottenham beat Bristol Rovers in a whopping 10–0 affair and by the end of the season had finished in second place.

In the FA Cup Tottenham went away to Everton in the first round and lost 1–0.
