In a booklet printed following this season "The Spurs of 1950", Arthur Rowe wrote ....

"There is, I'm certain, little left for me to write, that has not already been written about "Our Team," of 1949-50.  But it is with infinite pleasure, and some pride, that I take this opportunity of offering the players my appreciation of the great show they have made this season. 

Many and varied are the reasons attributed for the success to date, but I feel, that the main reason is that we are all completely together in our hopes and efforts for the Club.  There is a unity of desire, a unity of purpose and method, that is the background of our football.  There is understanding and goodwill, with everyone connected with the Club, that now entitles me to say that Tottenham are indeed, A Happy Club.

How desirable this is !  I see no real and lasting success, for any team, that is not representative of A Happy Club.  For where we have a contented service, united effort, and an agreed method, we find we have "Team Spirit," that abstract quality what makes ordinary teams good, and good teams great.  And what fo the team ?  Is it good ?

I say yes, very good.  A team of players, who are capable, sound, organised and confident; a team who can, when things "click", rise to great heights, and who because of their method and fight have never been really bad in any game this season.

Comparisons are always difficult, especially when we bridge the years, but so may folk have asked me whether this side compares with the palmy days of promotion in 1933 and 1920, that with a reluctance, I stick out my neck, and say, that this 1949-50 XI is definitely a better team than the one in which I played - that's my opinion.

1920-21, here, I'm groping a little, all these players were my schoolboy heros, and one gets such fixed ideas as a lad.  But I feel our XI of today must bear comparison, and if this be a correct appraisal, then we are indeed a good team, a very good team.

For myself, I am a proud, happy and lucky man, to have been given the management of such a talented, sensible bunch of good fellows, who have accepted suggestions with a good heart, played with good purpose, to achieve that, which we all wish to see - "Good Football."  May this spirit stay with us for a long time, - I feel it will."
