Good morning TSFers and happy Hump Day! I hope this post finds you in better shape than Thomas Frank, who was shown the door at our North London rivals. Spurs sacked Thomas Frank after yesterdays 2-1 loss
to Newcastle at home. It’s a real shame that we didn’t get to face his Spurs team one more time. I thoroughly enjoyed the 4-1 in November. Ebere Eze did, too.
Spurs sit 16th, 5 points above West Ham for the final relegation spot with Nottingham Forest in between them. Manchester United’s late tying goal against the Hammers spared Spurs from being only 3 points clear of the drop zone. They’re dreadful and significantly hampered by injury. At last check, it was something like 10 first team players, and Wilson Odobert was forced off yesterday.
They’ve already starting briefing the media to smear Thomas Frank, although I think his record at the club does more than enough of that on it’s own. Reportedly, he irked people around the building with how much he’d talk about Arsenal and how good we are. Thomas Frank is definitely a Gooner.
Spurs’ next match is against Arsenal in 11 days. Yay, new manager bounce! On the other hand, it’s always nice to introduce a new Tottenham manager to the way of things quickly. It would be nice to spoil a new guy’s debut, interim or not. The Gunners will have played three matches between now and the NLD in 11 days too, so that’s not great. 4 matches in 10 days, with the 4th match against Spurs and a new manager. Very annoying.
We have five Premier League matches today:
Nottingham Forest vs. Wolves, 2:30 pm ET
Aston Villa vs. Brighton, 2:30 pm ET
Manchester City vs. Fulham, 2:30 pm ET
Crystal Palace vs. Burnley, 2:30 pm ET
Sunderland vs. Liverpool, 3:15 pm ET
Which one will you be watching?
