Super pundit Fabrizio Romano in discussion on his Here We Go podcast understands that Tottenham Hotspur are still behind their current coach Nuno Espírito Santo. Fans addressing the news on social media are definitely split over the Portuguese coach, who is having a distinctly unmemorable season in the N17 hot seat.
One supporter actually makes a decent point. Not so long ago, Spurs were incapable of putting up a good show against many of our London rivals. A point against Arsenal was to be savoured as it spared our blushes. So one could argue that it is indeed, nothing new.
However, this is a very selective outlook. If a child today tells his grandparent that they are bored, then they some Dickensian tale of growing up having only wooden toys, no television and no Internet is unlikely to cut the mustard. That was then, and this is now.
Since the very enjoyable days of Martin Jol, THFC are almost unrecognizable, the crest is now a logo, The Lane is demolished, and we now have an entertainment complex that is only missing a roller rink and a multiplex cinema.
I take a view that clinging to the past is a poor excuse for a club stalling.
