Rule The Roost - A Tottenham Hotspur Podcast

Jack unpacks Tottenham’s tense but vital 1-0 win away at Eintracht Frankfurt - a result that books Spurs a place in the Europa League semi-finals and maybe, just maybe, marks a turning point for Ange Postecoglou and his squad. Amazing character the lads showed on the night, Solanke’s calm from the spot, a backline that finally looked like it had a bit of steel to it and yes, Ange. I’ve said my fai...

Tottenham have just lost 4-2 to Wolves, their 17th league defeat of the season and now sit 15th in the Premier League table. In any other season, this kind of form could potentially have them in the thick of a relegation battle. Shocking stuff for a club of this size, and for a side that’s never been relegated from the Premier League. Jack is joined by screenwriter Charlie Brafman to make sense of...

Jack's instant reaction to Tottenham's brutal 4-2 defeat at Molineux. Spurs started slow, never really recovered, and now serious questions hang over Ange Postecoglou.

Full-time at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and it ends 1-1 in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final. A frustrating night for Spurs with plenty of possession, some real moments of quality, but no killer blow.

Jack welcomes Phil back to the show to go over last night again, and to look ahead at where Spurs go from here. Ange Postecoglou has once again found himself in a weird spot with the fans – or maybe not, depending on who you ask. He’s claiming there’s no issue, but his comments in today’s pre-Southampton presser suggest otherwise, with talk of falling out of love with football because of VAR. Is t...

Spurs lose at Stamford Bridge once again - but in one of the most bland matches you'll ever see between the two sides. What are Tottenham even trying to do? Is there a plan? It all looks like a waste of time now, and with Ange Postecoglou getting into a slanging match with the fans yet again, has he all but seal his own fate?

Spurs lose again, this time at the hands of a ruthless Fulham side. Rodrigo Muniz and ex-Spur Ryan Sessegnon did the damage, leaving Tottenham with more questions than answers.
