And Spurs lose heavily at home to a relegation rival, without a new manager they're doomed

They need to bring someone else in until the end of the season or they'll definitely be relegated. But even if they do that, their last seven matches are against a few decent teams:


Sunderland - very strong at home and on a high after beating Newcastle again today

Brighton - form picking up and in contention for Europe

Wolves - game they'll need to win but Wolves have improved even though they're going down

Villa - looking to qualify for the Champions League

Leeds - massive game

Chelsea - unpredictable team but got a chance of qualifying for the Champions League

Everton - in contention for Europe

Looking forward to welcoming the Spurs to the CCS next season! :laughing6:

Igor Tudor has suddenly departed London for ‘home’ since the Forest defeat, citing a ‘family’ death

I don’t think he’s the man to finish the season, assuming he’s allowed. Spurs need a firefighter now and there aren’t too many about like there once were!

Harry Redknapp or Sam Allerdyce to com out of retirement? ;) :?:

I still think they have enough to get out of their predicament over West Ham but they definitely need a manager to come in and give them an instant lift.

Saying that, would be a great home & away game next season!
