Okay so if Alex Ferguson had stated he didn't know who had more red cards than Roy Keane or whatever, in your opinion that would make him look amateur?

Look I want rid of Frank as much as the next man, but not looking up who has the most red cards in the Premier League between September 2020 and February 2026, isn't anything to batter a manager about. It's only being called out because people want rid of him, and the more shit they can throw, the more shit may stick.

It’s not about knowing who has more cards than who, it’s about knowing where Romero is in all that.

Fergie would 100% have known where Keane lay in the list (probably the most 🤣) and wouldn’t try to downplay it or pretend otherwise.

Anyway, this is fruitless. I think Frank should have known. You don’t. Move on.

What’s the matter with these media people

IMO it's a mix of enjoying a Spurs manager that doesn't call out the hypocrisy like the previous bloke did in his final months as well as Spurs being relegated when the rapists win the league being a media wet dream.

If he goes then there is a chance we get a manager in who doesn't talk us down constantly and calls out the gutter press. Frank knows who to suck up to and it certainly isn't the Spurs fans. That he is still in a job shows the club are completely fine with this approach.

Agreed. Frank is playing down spurs as a club every chance he gets. Talking about us getting draws as good results and how us fans are so ungrateful.

"It would help if they didn't boo".
"We will lose games"
"last year we finished 17th"

He's been playing the club down from the start and the media love it. Who do spurs think they are, they are not a top club. In fact Villa are bigger. Thats the media narrative and frank is perfect for it.

Atleast Ange talked us up and would challenge the media!

The bit that you don't include is the given period was between September 2020, and February 2026, so it's not just knowing where Romero is this season, or from the start of all players since the Premier League began, but between two specific dates.

I doubt Alex Ferguson or any other Premier League manager could answer correctly about who had the most red cards between date A and date B.

I don't know why you're making such an argument that managers are expected to do that.

Causing so many injuries because we're just always hoofing the ball and always losing possession. As well as all the extra defending! Had so many unnecessary knocks and bumps from tackles and 50/50s.

Frank out.

The dates are his time here. It’s not that difficult. It’s not some arbitrary, random timeframe. Since his debut nobody has been sent off more.

I don’t know why you don’t think that someone that manages 25 people and picks teams based on availability and chose a captain based on attributes and metrics didn’t know something that most of us do.

He’s two yellows away from a two game suspension when he gets back. He will have missed 10/29 games because of discipline issues. Someone on £8m a year should know that.

But whatever.

the dude your opinion GIF
 
Regardless of how the game will end, he will have the Odobert injury as a good enough excuse for the board to stick with him so don't you worry, he will still be here when we play Woolwich.

Why would Frank have inspected a red card list for all Premier League players only during the time Romero has been at the club?

Fuck me.

Honestly.

Forget the list and who’s on it. Just know that Romero gets sent off a lot. More than everyone else. The manager should know that.

It really isn’t hard. I’m not going to reply to this any more because it really isn’t worth it. You don’t agree. Whatever.
