Stunned he’s still here to be honest.
Maybe the two goals yesterday stayed the execution?

Mason is better than Ange for sure ...
However ...
Mason will not bring a new manager bounce, and if Levy is lining up a replacement in the summer, and thinks "Ryan will be fine until then" ... I think he might end up in very serious trouble this season.
We need an external hire, interim or perm., asap.
Would that be an argument if we'd lost every single game except for this one?
So is that on the standalone mitigant enough to bail out everything else?
I feared a total humiliation at HT. 3-2 away is terrible to them. But not a result we'll have quoted back at us.
Tamworth was very nearly the worst result in living memory for Tottenham.
TBH Tamworth should have resulted in Ange's sack immediately.
The year is 2061, Tottenham interim manager Ryan Mason is helped in to the dug out by volunteers from the ambulance service…
This "we're still in the cups" argument really is the last refuge of those who cannot face facts and admit to changing their minds in the face of evidence.
League and cup form are overwhelmingly correlated. Have a look at the winners of leagues and cups over the past 20 years if you want some evidence on that.
We have actually played very poorly in the cups this season, the Liverpool game being the one notable exception.
No but it is evidence that we can beat Liverpool and reach the final.
If we win said final, that would be success.
For the centenary celebrations?
It is far less compelling evidence that we WILL beat Liverpool than the evidence of:
- league form this season of Tottenham and Liverpool
- cup form this season for Tottenham and Liverpool
- our record at Anfield
Lightning will not strike twice.
It's a major PSR issue to sack your manager and then have to replace him. This is simply not just a purely footballing issue, Levy for sure is just hoping Ange can drag it out till the summer without getting hit by anyore ridiculous results.
Maybe true but it is still evidence
I was there in 95, behind the goal when Teddy and Jurgen scored
At this point I am not putting this past Levy anymore
And if you add that he could throw in Mason as interim coach then he can also say that he trusts the guy who know club inside out and can get out of the existing group of players etc...
would be anything but surprising. I am fully on Ange Out boat but more than that I am in Levy out boat. He is good with some part of financial management, but in terms of anything that touches managerial part and playing staff and planning the squad, we are an absolute amateur club.
lol we can’t wait until February. Yeah, Levy, let’s lose to Leicester and Brentford first.
You can see levy doing it though can’t you. Wait till we go out of everything so the heat turns up so high on the manager that he has to let him go. Classic deflection of which levy will be looking for.
He should have gone weeks ago and definitely today.
Part of me would just love to see bald cunt have his wealth cunted by relegation. But I'm a Spurs fan, and I want us to win every game.
It's not a major PSR issue for Tottenham - it simply shouldn't be a consideration given our limits

Levy must know it’s on him if he’s sacked.
Out of curiosity I looked at what is officially our worst season since 1882 - the relegation year of 76-77.
Then, as now, we had some really good results against top teams. Beat 4 of the top 6, and a draw off another. Only one doubled us. But our form against so called crap teams was diabolical. Losses at home to Bristol City, Coventry. Conceding 8 at Derby (who were shite) and 5 at Spam (ditto).
Finished bottom of the table, no injury crisis. Could keep clean sheets. And 3 trophies previous 5 years.
