<P> The 1960--61 season started with a run of 11 wins, followed by a draw and another four wins, at that time the best ever start by any club in the top flight of English football . The title was won on 17 April 1961 when they beat the eventual runner - up Sheffield Wednesday at home 2--1, with three more games still to play . The Double was achieved when Spurs won 2--0 against Leicester City in the final of the 1960--61 FA Cup . It was the first Double of the 20th century, and the first since Aston Villa achieved the feat in 1897 . The next year Spurs won their second consecutive FA Cup after beating Burnley in the 1962 FA Cup Final . </P> <P> On 15 May 1963, Tottenham became the first British team to win a European trophy by winning the 1962--63 European Cup Winners' Cup when they beat Atlético Madrid 5--1 in the final . Spurs also became the first British team to win two different European trophies when they won the 1971--72 UEFA Cup with a rebuilt team that included Martin Chivers, Pat Jennings, and Steve Perryman . They had also won the FA Cup in 1967, and two League Cups (in 1971 and 1973). In total, Nicholson won eight major trophies in his 16 years at the club as manager . </P> <P> Spurs went into a period of decline after the successes of the early 1970s, and Nicholson resigned after a poor start to the 1974--75 season . The team was then relegated at the end of the 1976--77 season with Keith Burkinshaw as manager . Burkinshaw quickly returned the club to the top flight, building a team that included Glenn Hoddle, as well as two Argentinians, Osvaldo Ardiles and Ricardo Villa, whose signings were particularly uncommon in the British game as foreign players in British football were rare at that time . The team that Burkinshaw rebuilt went on to win the FA Cup in 1981 and 1982 and the UEFA Cup in 1984 . </P> <P> The 1980s was a period of change that began with a new phase of redevelopment at White Hart Lane, as well as a change of directors . Irving Scholar took over the club and moved it in a more commercial direction, the beginning of the transformation of English football clubs into commercial enterprises . Debt at the club would again lead to a change in the boardroom, and Terry Venables teamed up with businessman Alan Sugar in June 1991 to take control of Tottenham Hotspur plc . Venables, who had become manager in 1987, signed players such as Paul Gascoigne and Gary Lineker . Under Venables, Spurs won the 1990--91 FA Cup, making them the first club to win eight FA Cups . </P>
