Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I tētahi rā hauhautanga i White Hart Lane neke atu i te 50 tau ki muri ka huihui mātou ki te pūrongo i a Dave Mackay e hoki mai ana i te whati waewae. I tata matou ki te kite i te whakaaturanga mīharo o te mea i whakapono ai te tokomaha o matou, ko Mackay te tangata pakeke rawa o te katoa i roto i te wā o nga kaitākaro whutupaoro i whakatangihia rite te pahu. Ko te iti, pakari, pakari o te parirau e whakauruhia ana ki roto i nga korero a te Spurs hei "te ngakau" o te roopu tuatahi ki te whakatutuki i te toa League me te FA Cup takirua i muri o te Pakanga Tuarua o te Ao i pakaru te waewae maui i te tukinga ki a Manchester United's Noel Cantwell i Old Trafford. Ko te whakaahua rongonui o Dave Mackay e aro ana ki a Billy Bremner o Leeds i te marama o Akuhata 1966. Ko Mike Summerbee o Manchester City e hopu ana i a Mackay i te wa o te whakataetae o te Wahanga Kotahi 1968. I whakaahuahia a Mackay i te waa whakangungu i te papa o Tottenham's White Hart Lane i te tau 1967. I toa a Mackay i te FA Cup me Tottenham i nga wa e toru - i te 1961, 1962 me te 1967. I whakawhiwhia a Mackay ki a Jimmy Robertson (matau) i muri i te wikitoria a Spurs i a Chelsea 2-1 i te whiringa toa o te FA Cup i te tau 1967. Ko te kaiwhakahaere o Tottenham a Bill Nicholson me nga kaitakaro a Cliff Jones, Jimmy Greaves, Mackay, Paul Shoemark me Stephen Pitt i te tau 1965. Ka rere a Mackay ki runga i te pikitanga i White Hart Lane i a ia e whawhai ana ki te hoki mai i te whatianga waewae takirua. He wharanga nui, he uaua, ā, e iwa marama i mua i tana hokinga mai, i te tukinga o te whiringa toa ki a Shrewsbury. I te nuinga o te wā, ka rere a Mackay ki te pōro. Ki to mātou whakamataku, he haruru. Ka whakatika tonu ia, engari ka rere atu te kaiako, ka titiro wawe, ka mea ki a ia, he pouri te ngakau, kua pakaru ano te waewae. Tērā pea he nui te mamae, engari i tohe a Mackay kia tirohia e ia te tātaritanga. I takahia e ia tōna waewae ki te whenua, ā, i te wa anake i puta mai ai te wheua pakaru i roto i tōna kākahu toto, ka whakaae ia kāore e taea e ia te tākaro. Ahakoa ka whakahawea ia ki te takotoranga, a haere atu, e ngana ana ki te kore e whati. "Kaore rawa koe e whakaatu i te mea kua whara koe", ka ngunguru ia i a rātou e tere ana ki te hōhipera. Ehara i te wā tuatahi i rongo ai mātou i a ia e kī ana i tērā. Ko tana kupu. I arohaina e Mackay...
I mate a Mackay, te kaituku Scottish o nga toa takirua o Spurs i te tau 1961, i te 80 o ona tau. I mōhiotia te haurua parirau kaha ko te 'whakataunga ngakau' o Tottenham Kāore ia i karo i tētahi tukinga, ā, i whai ingoa ia he tangata pakeke. Ko Mackay te mea e tino maumaharahia ana e Billy Bremner. Engari he kaitakaro mohio ia, he kaitakaro whai mana hoki, he maha nga mētara i riro i a ia.
