7 h. ago Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham journey a reminder the world of football is vast and rich

Spurs’ Europa League triumph marks the high point of Australian football success and keeps the door open for the next wave of coachesOpen-top buses are a favourite of visitors to London, including many of the half million Australians who travel there each year. Ange Postecoglou became the latest to hop aboard as part of a parade celebrating Tottenham’s Europa League triumph.There is no Buckingham Palace, no Tower of London, no Piccadilly Circus on Friday’s route – or Saturday morning for those watching from Australia. Rather, this was an unusual journey around not central but north London. On an ordinary day, Tottenham and Edmonton are areas deemed too common for most to be worth seeing.
