No the point is this guy got 2 fucking seasons. When after the first 10 all we showed was relegation form. So he gets 2 years of stinking the place out lucked out on a Europa (fucking fantastic that he did by the way) put out numerous stinking performances,had more than 1 altercation with fans but yet those same people that wanted him to stay after all that then want a man sacked after 12 league games. Baring in mind how horrible we was for a season and a half under him yet Frank isn't even afforded a third of a league campaign. It's fucking ridiculous.

And everyone is venting on their own thing on this forum right now after a terrible performance and result and mine right now is the hypocrisy of calling for this man's head when the previous manager dragged this club's morale down to the gutter with shit performances one after another. If we're dragged in to a relegation battle then fair enough it could be up for debate but up until then it's nothing we haven't already endured over the last several seasons. Give the bloke a season atleast.

He got 5th in his first season and displayed some epic games?

Won a trophy in his second despite some of the most ridiculous pressures I've ever seen a manager go through? Take it you've been a spurs fan for all over 2/3 year yeah? Otherwise you have a seriously short memory?

I'm up for giving the man a season but no context was afford at all to Ange which is absolutely madness. The disrespect given to him despite being an absolute bonafide spurs LEGEND from some of our "supporters" is absolutely disgraceful.

We've made some terrible decisions over the years, but the 'what if' with Ange feels like it will forever be the most haunting at this point. For both Tottenham and Ange..

Our loss was Nottingham Forest gain.

Ange had to go mate. His football was not sustainable. Problem is we didn't upgrade the manager position.

So you're saying we shouldn't have given him time, but to give Frank time?

Honestly, anyone that can truthfully say that Frank needs time, after watching what we've been watching all season need their heads examined. He has offered fucking nothing, nada, nout. If there was good football, nice passages of play, bravery, you can see what the plan is, sure, give him time, but he's done none of that. It's actually just hilarious at this point. Never seen so many excuses made for this.

He's out of his league, that's all.

Have to trust the process, I mean I thought he was absolutely brilliant other than the cupping of the ears to the fans.

I fully believe the board got rid of him because of the supporters had supported him, they would have truly been under pressure.

He did in my opinion optimise everything Spurs fans were crying out for, for years and years (minus the loses)

We KNOW there's other factors to these poor results however.

What a load of bull.

Word-salad with fancy terms but zero substance. What the fuck does "style of play does not translate to elite level" mean? Absolutely nothing at all.

There are many ways to skin a cat. Unless you are (and I am not suggesting you actually are) absolute dumbfuck-of-a-simpleton who thinks that only way to be successful is to play is Pep's tiki-taka football and always having 65+ % of possession.

If anything then bit of an underdog mentality is exactly what we need. We are doing well but we will never beat teams such as ManU, Shitty and Chelsea in the spending game. In trying to out-Pep Pep himself. It is impossible unless you have billions to sportwash. We need to be cleaver.

I am not saying that Frank has the key to unlocking that. Nor am I denying that yersterday he messed up. But this tweet and pre-digested thought is braindead as hell.

Everyone else is stupid but you mate. Think maybe some self-reflection is needed on your behalf.

You've been calling me all sorts for saying what this tweet has said for weeks, but you and a few other lunatics keep telling me how it'll change, and it's just been brutal.

I get what your saying... but even if he had his first choice back four all season I'm not sure he would have finished top five. Credit for the Europa League although many want to believe he didn't contribute anything to that but it had run its course and it was time to find a world class manager. Problem is the board got the recruitment all wrong and went for a pound shop manager.

Those 4 are our best players in our whole squad. The rest are bang average .

Disagree...

I think Udogie is very good but needs a run of games. Bergvall, Sarr both good players... would like to see more of Gray in midfield... and as much as people hate Johnson he has an eye for goal... everyone was wetting themselves when we signed Palhinha and by all accounts my son reckons RKM is world class but he does play a lot of FIFA.

Madders / Kulu both above average...

Yes some of these are not consistent enough but its disingenuous to call international players bang average.
