They certainly under the most pressure.
The media focus is one thing but the fans haven't got the stomach for the fight.
That'll only exacerbate the on field calamity.

As far as I am concerned, the vast majority of Spurs fans deserve relegation.
They wanted Mr Levy out.
They wanted Thomas Frank out.
These were the only two people who had a clue.
Spurs fanbase is full of grumpy old men who do nothing but whine and whinge about getting rid of Poch.
Poch style of football would last about as long as Russell Martin did at Southampton in the EPL now.

The league is chock full of pragmatic physical football teams who are well orgainised with pace and power up front.
Even Guardiola said the other day he needs to find a way to get the ball to Haaland quicker.

Two years ago Arsenal lost the league when their attacking football fell apart in the run-in. It was a lesson Arteta learnt.
Tottenham fans it seems will never learn.

They deserve to go down for singing 'Champions of Europe' after winning the EL.

Come on dude, it's just banter. There are two European trophies up for grabs and obviously the CL is vastly more prestigious but Spurs fans claiming they're European champions is factually correct. Silly

This has to be a windup. Fr*nk was a disastrous appointment and the warning signs were there from very early on (the performance away to Monaco and the horribly negative tactics he employed at home to Chelsea and at Ars*nal).  This calamity wouldn't have happened under Levy. He would've fired Fr*nk months earlier and would've used the January transfer window to guarantee against relegation. I was Never "Levy OUT" by the way.

I'm with sofa here, all the way. Levy made a big mistake by not buying reinforcements sooner. Put Eze in to support the front line and actually score a goal or two and it is very likely we would have had a few more points by now. He was ours, Levy stalled, which left us void of any attacking threat right up to the January window. That was the FIRST time that I began to doubt Levy, prior to that I was content to leave him alone.

Frank came in and his hands were immediately tied, but he too made mistakes. Simons, for example, did not have a great start. He came across as a bit lazy, wouldn't chase back, threw his arms in the air when losing the ball etc. He then had a few games where he began to show what he had in the tank, so Frank benched him... WTF! - When he was finally brought back in, the little glimpses of form continued and he held his place thereafter, but no matter how hard he tried, he had no support from the rest, because the front line was simply not of a PL standard and I'm talking any PL team. Who is at fault thelatarps? The fans or Levy? He left us hanging this season and is ultimately to blame for the mess we now find ourselves in.

That being said, he was wise enough to see this for himself and between September and January I have no doubt he would have been sourcing replacements. His sacking, although not without merit, was bad timing and a shock to everyone, myself included. He made a mistake and I'm certain he would have made amends.

Frank clearly couldn't make it work. He made mistakes, he lost a few of the players and then the writing was on the wall. Keep him, we go down. Get rid then who knows?

Now, finally, we come to the board, who clearly haven't a clue. First they have a window, a whole month to sort out the mess. Sitting on the stands acting like they know what is going on, they clearly didn't. The window came and went with only Gallagher. a midfielder. as a recognised PL player and some more defenders... not a single front line player. A strong attacking midfielder, like Eze, or (dare I say) a striker to support the injury-prone Richarlison or injured Solanke.

... but the fans are to blame Crazy

I dont see TF as a disaster at all.
In fact had he stood I am sure we would be staying up.
The main criticism coming from the beloved dressing room appears to be that he was obsessed with the Ersenal.
So what do we do? Sack him before the Derby. Brilliant.
Look at the results and performances under TF.

Outside of the loss at Forest, an away game on the back of a midweek euro fixture, the results were freakishly unfortuate.

Points lost in the last minute to Bournemouth, West Ham at home to Man U.

Four games lost to the refs going against us because of a push in the back. FFS when you hear the entire sports media, Perry Groves aside bizarrely enough, sticking up for the Gabriel decision one week then laying into Dragusin the next, you know there is some sort of agenda going on.

Red card decisions which can only be explained by the fact that Cuti Romero has been labelled as a 'Dirty Argie' by the notoriously xenophobic British press.
I mean.. its not just that. Xavi Simmons gets red carded for accidentally treading on some mickey mousers ankle. Next week Phil Foden does the exact same thing and its... oh he is a good lad, he plays for ingerlund. Cant send him off.
Even on thursday, micky gets done for pulling Sarr's shirt. But when ingerlund player Guehi does it for City....at flucking Anfield of all places... he gets a free pass.

TF football is not Brazil 1970. But nobody's in this godawful Premier League.
Frank may not have been popular with the playes. But he would have done enough to keep us up.

I'm not so sure Frank would have kept us up, but to be fair, we'll never know. From my perspective he had lost the dressing room and that ultimately leads to a dismissal, in any club. Again, in his defence, the players we had (have) are not of a good standard, one or two aside, and I doubt many, if any managers could have done much better. In other words, I'm close to agreeing with your point-of-view, but what is holding me back, is that I felt that we needed a change to stop the slide. Not a single win since Palace in December, albeit with a few dubious decisions that you have touched upon, but something had to give.

If we do go down, which is still not cut and dried, I feel the final responsibility lies with the board for not acting in January to strengthen our front line, at all. They left us with Kolo Muani (1 goal in 21 games) Tel (3 goals in 22 games) Simons (1 goal in 23 games) whilst leaving Richarlison (8 goals in 24 games) to pick up the pieces. Solanke has returned with 3 goals in 10 games... how on earth did they feel they could see out the season with these stats?

The only hope we have is Kudus returning, who is currently sitting on 2 goals and 5 assists in 19 games. With Solanke now leading the line I'm hoping that the pair of them can team up and dig us out of this hole.

There are 3 actually and the ECL winners don't sing it. Leeds don't sing champions of England either.

False equivalency.  The Championship is a lower league in England while the Europa League regularly has CL level teams competing in it. And yeah, chill out lurka....you're very stiff.Tongue Out

I don't think I have. What CL level sides were in it last season? Don't say Bodo, they were knocked out in the CL qualifying round.

The quality of the EL has been massively reduced by there being 4 extra teams in the CL and 8 3rd placed CL teams not going into the EL.

Spurs lowest point was this time last season .Since then they have won a trophy .   
Last season they weren't relegated only because Ipswich  ,Leicester and Soton were so bad and propping them up lol ...points wise it's the same 1 point per game

if there was ever a evening that confirmed that spurs need to be sold and sold quickly it is tonight. palace was bad, this has been confirmation of the death of ENIC tonight

there is no comeback for lewis, lange and veni after tonight.  they would be advised not to attend the forest game id say

The time to sell was after winning the EL with CL money coming in (in hindsight). Relegation would be somewhat priced in now. Possibly the worst time to sell, at least the 2nd worst.
