Tottenham, who have now gone eight Premier League games without a single win and are in the midst of a relegation battle as the club look up from 16th in the league. 

Fans plead for stability

THST have sent a message to the board after Frank’s removal, pleading with the board to bring stability to what looks to be a sinking ship. 

In what is a lengthy statement, here are the key components: 

“The Trust welcomes the decision to part ways with Thomas Frank. 

“While his appointment initially appeared to be a positive step, it has not delivered the progress or results the club urgently needs and decisive action was required. We now face another rebuild whilst we are fighting relegation. 

“This is a crucial moment for Tottenham Hotspur. Strong leadership is needed at every level of the club to restore belief and direction for both the players and the supporters. 

“No manager can succeed without proper backing. Serious financial investment in the squad is essential, as it is plain to see the team is down to the bare bones.” 

Tottenham must be ambitious

Spurs next face rivals and league leaders Arsenal in what will be a very tough test for a side without a head coach. The supporters trust finished by saying that the side who won the Europa League last season must show ambition once again. 

“The club needs to show fans it has ambition and is serious about getting out of the relegation battle, rebuilding the squad, winning trophies and competing for Champions League places on a regular basis and restoring Tottenham Hotspur to where it belongs.”
