I agree. But it'll have to be an interim ans then poch in the summer right? We can't really risk doing anything else now? The fans are very close to being done with this shitHe's lost the players and the fans, that's why - no way back for him so no point keeping him.
Firstly please stop with this Ryan Mason pish.I don't rate Frank at all. We are getting progressively worse under him and he's like a rabbit in headlights. He's so far out of his depth it's unreal. The irony of Nuno coming to our stadium to beat him sums it up. Atleast when these results were happening under Ange, they were usually sandwiched in between cup or European games where we were showing up and winning with a stronger team. This current run is inexcusable.
But..... I'm trying to think logically and out myself in the spurs owners shoes. What does sacking him in January really achieve bar some short term relief? The season is a total right off. We can probably finish 9th or 10th in the league at best and I can't see us finishing below 17th. So all the league games are basically dead rubbers now. We realistically can't win the CL and imagine we'll need alot of luck with the draw to stay in it as far as March. Then there is nothing else for us to play for. So the logic from the owners is what's the panic? The season is done. There's no point rushing into a new manager. I reckon they'll start interviewing now with the idea of someone coming in for June. And they'll give Frank these few months to potentially pull off a miracle.
I think they'll have to bring back Poch now. I don't think they've a choice. The fans (including myself) are slowly starting to hate everything about the football club. We've lost our identity. We've lose everything we ever stood for. We don't dare. We don't do. We don't attack. We don't know who we are. It's shit. I'm preference would be to sack him and have someone like Harry redknapp/ Robbie keane/ ledly king/ Ryan Mason finish out the season and restore some pride before moving for poch. But imagine the owners will just let Frank finish out a shit season.
It was his clearance STRAIGHT to a W HamIt was him. He landed on his back after that bicycle kick a few seconds earlier.
Didn't work out for Frank but it shouldn't cover up the other shit. He should be relieved of the job but whoever put this squad together wants shooting.I agree.

We need a manager who can unite the team and fans ASAP. Frank has done untold damage
Who cares, he’s captained us to a trophy and was immense that night, he’s one of our highest scorers this season and he’s won the World Cup.It was his clearance STRAIGHT to a W Ham
Player that lead to the 1st goal
I think it is doing him a favour. He seems like a genuinely decent bloke and it's going to get really toxic for him if he stays. He will probably have a bit of a break with family then go to Palace and do a good job.

Said at when we signed him but why are we signing players when we know the manager is done and has been for a while. Should've grew a pair when Alonso got sacked and said what will it take for you to come to Spurs.
Failing to win a single match at Forest should tell you all you need to know about his managerial ability.Well well well.....
Maybe it wasn't all the Fat Aussie's fault...
Maybe two thirds of these players are a bunch of spineless shitcunts, who turn up when and if they fancy it and down tools for the rest of the time.
Colour me surprised, its not like I've been saying it for the past 24 months....
I'm sure Glasner, De Zerbi, Iraola or a "proper tactician" will fix it all though...
