Tottenham fans call for Igor Tudor’s sacking after defeat to Fulham
Tottenham Hotspur supporters have demanded the immediate dismissal of Igor Tudor following a 2-1 loss to Fulham, continuing a streak of 10 consecutive Premier League matches without a win, reports BritPanorama.
The match took place at Craven Cottage, where Harry Wilson and Alex Iwobi scored for the hosts. Richarlison’s late header provided only a glimmer of hope for Spurs on a disappointing afternoon under the new manager Tudor.
As a result of this latest setback, Tottenham finds itself in 16th position in the league table, having narrowly avoided further drop after Nottingham Forest’s defeat against Brighton. The club’s recent form has been concerning, with only four points earned over the last ten league outings, marking them as the worst performing team in the top flight during this period.
Fans expressed their frustrations on social media and during the match, with many feeling that Tudor’s managerial decisions hindered the team’s chances. One supporter noted, “Tudor always felt like a real wild card… It’s not absurd to discuss sacking him if we lose on Thursday.” Another added, “They have to sack Tudor and bring in someone else. Preferably [Sean] Dyche.”
It is Tudor who now joins an exclusive list of Tottenham managers, being only the second to lose both of his opening Premier League matches, a fate previously shared with Martin Jol in 2004. The lack of significant progress in terms of results stirs further discontent among the fanbase, particularly as opportunities for establishing foothold in the league were missed following defeats of direct rivals.
Fulham showed more urgency and cohesion throughout the match, with Wilson opening the scoring in the first 10 minutes after a well-worked move, which sparked protests from Spurs over a perceived foul. Iwobi’s second goal before half-time was met with audible discontent from travelling Spurs fans, whose chants reflected their growing frustration with the club’s ownership.
Although Richarlison brought Spurs back into the game with a headed goal in the 70th minute, manager Marco Silva’s tactical adjustments were effective enough to stifle Tottenham’s attempts to equalise. With six minutes of added time, Spurs failed to capitalise on any late opportunities, as an authoritative performance from Fulham’s goalkeeper kept the visitors at bay.
Looking ahead, Tottenham’s next fixture sees them face Crystal Palace on Thursday, who are also seeking to bounce back following a defeat to Manchester United. With pressure mounting on Tudor and the club’s ambitions slipping away, the coming days are pivotal for Tottenham’s season and managerial stability.
As the spectre of relegation looms larger, this latest chapter serves as a reminder of how quickly the tides can turn in football — for managers and clubs alike.
