We were being gas-lit, we knew it but we couldn't prove it.
If the media didn't like him then these things would have come out way before, I mean they've done the dressing room leak thing for other managers whilst they were still in the job and have undermined them - Reckon the only other manager that got as much media protection was Redknapp.
Spurs need charismatic managers that the players respect.
Thomas Frank is the complete opposite, and has proven himself to be inept at managing top clubs.
Lots of external factors didnt help, but to be a massive influence in us potentially getting relegated is criminal.
Performances have been a disgrace and only winning 2 home PL matches is obviously unacceptable.
And now there are rumours he spoke highly of Woolwich to the players? Does he want to be Legomans slave?

And there is more. No man management skills just worse and worse. Might be our worse ever appointment.

I genuinely think he was stitched up, and I reckon he was handed it from one of our lot.
Ange was snarly in the media so of course they went for him. Ange used to give it out to us fans as well, he was just a bit of a cunt let's be honest.
Frank is a pacifist so media gave him an easy ride.
All the pundits loved Ange because he gave them pithy quotes and we looked like shit under him. The journalists hated him because he was always a prick to them.
Didn't say anything about Ange though?
Pretty much every other manager we've had they've release all this dressing room drama crap before they've been sacked.
I was just saying that's why both were treated so differently by the media.
On the leaks, yeah the media were probably protecting Frank
Certainly feels like they sat on their hands far too long but we have to hope for a very quick boost from him going
We had Ryan Mason as interim before he went to the Chavs though didn't we? Wonder hwo things might have turned out had we employed him instead.......
Definitely protecting him, just imagine that these came out in November, no way he would have survived until Feb.
If even half of that is true. I'm even gladder that he's gone. For all his faults. no way Ange would have used that as a team talk.
What a moron, he never, ever 'got' us.

Time to move this to general football and forget it ever happened
This was obvious when for example he was asked "have you spoken to Romero following the sending off" and he'd always answer no. There's been multiple occasions like that.
Just seemed like he never had a relationship with any of them. It's impossible to be a top manager without this.
He had absolutely no authority and im not surprised. Proper sad case of a man.
