After what I watched tonight!
I moved to Spain 8 years ago, yet even till this day, hold 2 season tickets in the West upper stand, travel to many home and away games from Spain, and recently paid a fortune for Showtime TV so I won't miss a single Spurs game, Tottenham through and through. You can change your wife, your home, your job, but you can never change your football team.... what's my point you ask?
I have seen it so many times before over the past 35 years, the manager has lost the support of his players. I watched the game tonight, and as the commentator Paul Jewell said, we had no fight, no spirit and no leadership. They are not playing for the manager anymore.
Big Sam was animated throughout the game, our manager stood without emotion, arms crossed, no motivation, and the team were a reflection of his lack of passion. We are now in serious trouble, Spurs supporters are looking at the fixture list, Blackburn home, Middlesborough away, and thinking tough games, and yet we look at the Arse fixtures, and wonder when they will get a tough game!
I can sympathise with Jol supporters, you haven't known anything better, and he's done ok over the past couple of seasons, but even you will be questioning him tonight. He's lost the plot, lost his players, and only a change of manager will temporarily change our fortunes. We need a manager that is NOT NICE, martin is sadly too nice. We need a manager the players fear and respect. We need a WINNER.
Doesn't matter who you are, where your loyalties lie, we are in deep trouble, and this time our manager doesn't have the ability to get us out of this situation, and this is not the first time he has found himself in this position over the past 3 seasons.
I respect what Jol has done, BUT, he has taken us as far as his ability allows, hand the reigns over to someone who can take us to the next level, maybe klinsmann, maybe Mourhino, but please this time a winner, with a pedigree of winning trophies, championships, even the Champions league.... well I can drean can't I.
I hope for martin Jol's sake, he resigns with dignity before he's pushed, but unfortunately it won't happen.
Managers will come, managers will go, but we are Spurs, FOREVER
And I am not fickle! Just very very worried.
