But some of us season ticket holders didnt want to go to games any more under that regime. That is the difference. Plus we all knew it was about to come falling down. I dont have to go back a year or so ago to find the posts to prove it. I remember them.

P
Palace are similar to Wolves. Low block, solid and a couple of good players. We need an early goal or this will be the end of him
Because over the season, style trumps results. We’ve generally been shit since that Chelsea game for one reason or another
Our play in the first ten games indicated a title challenge and that 8 wins / 2 draws was a par return…. Subsequently we’ve played badly. No issue with some of those games without both centre backs and all three midfielders but I see a tipping point
Yeah let’s see what mighty teams we’ve faced in the last 10 league games: Wolves, Brighton x2, Brentford, Everton x2, Man Utd, Bournemouth, Forest and Newcastle, conceding 16 goals in the process.
I know the saying you can only beat what’s infront of you, but the average position of these teams we’ve faced is midtable and we haven’t shown much sign of progress. The last game we’ve played well was against Newcastle.
Thoughts? A fairly accurate tongue in cheek summary perhaps? It could have all been pretty much copied off of here.

7) Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham (3)
Just a few worrying signs of the sheen coming off Postecoglou and his football and his team.
It really has been quite a long time since they’ve produced a decent complete performance. The 4-1 win over Newcastle maybe? It probably is. That game was well over two months ago now.
We might be wrong, but we get a sense that Spurs rather complacently felt that getting the band back together would automatically make it the autumn again with performances and results to match. Results had, until last weekend’s limp surrender against Wolves, been okay. But that was a defeat that any Spurs fan could tell you had been coming after a run of unconvincing home wins against Everton, Bournemouth, Brentford and Brighton.
The football just isn’t anywhere near as fun as it was. Against Wolves, dare we say it, it was almost Conte-like. James Maddison has returned from injury nothing like the player who was probably the standout in the entire division before limping off on that fateful night against Chelsea.
Spurs remain bafflingly on course to become only the second team in Barclays history to score in every game of a season, but the football comes only in patches now rather than irresistible waves. The 10 minutes after half-time against Brentford were a reminder of what they can do to anyone when it all clicks, but for the most part the last month has been spent waiting for a click that never really comes.
Most worrying of all, though, was the aftermath of the Wolves game. Postecoglou’s “I’m not a magician, mate” was just the first slight glimpse of a manager reaching the inevitable point in the Spurs managerial lifecycle of growing sick with the players at his disposal. While that moment is inevitable, it has come far earlier than anyone could have predicted back in the autumn.
It’s not all doom and gloom and nothing is f***ed. Postecoglou is still in his first season and deserves far more patience than we’re affording here. The season as a whole still represents positive and definitive progress. But still, Postecoglou and his team are either in the midst of an extended funk that needs snapping out of quick smart, or they’ve been worked out. If it’s the latter, they’re in trouble.
Premier League manager rankings: Arteta jumps from the pack, Moyes plummets
It's only been a month since the last Premier League manager rankings, but we had David Moyes above Mikel Arteta then so an update was needed.

Wolves are much better than Palace
Lol LOL at Shady
ok?
Then why are you worried about Man Utd?

Yeah. Entirely fair.
We have a fanbase that are worried about everything and everything is massive.
Palace are hopeless and we’ll beat them comfortably.
You would think we are in the bottom half of the table with the doom and gloom from Saturday. We’re ok and going in the right direction. For as much as we aren’t playing great our results have still been decent. We will hit form again. I bet there’s a big reaction when we play Palace.
Recent games have suggested the latter, it's a matter of waiting to see if, the team can find some consistency in their form until the end of the season.Thoughts? A fairly accurate tongue in cheek summary perhaps? It could have all been pretty much copied off of here.

Referees plus they can’t get any worse
Agree but with eze and Olise it’s close
Those two are the difference from being relegated to being comfortable by the end of March.
20 points in the league over 10 games.
Had we beaten wolves joint 1st. 23/30
All I hear about Palace is their relegation form!!
I was stunned at those comments so early into his reign. Almost parroting the sentiments of Antonio Conte just 12 months earlier.
I haven’t watched the interview for context, which is always key. So can’t really comment on them.
It makes me laugh when people suggest people like Emery aren't good football managers. He's managed nearly 1000 games of football, 4 European Trophies to his name. The guy has forgotten more about football than you have ever known. Elite at his profession.
100% been saying it for years we need that magic player!
