Former Spurs manager Tim Sherwood has said that the club will plummet all the way down to the third tier of English football. He recently issued the chilling warning amid Spurs’ current slump, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, without a drastic change in leadership, the prospect of life in the Championship would only be the beginning of a larger collapse for Tottenham football club.
Citing Leicester City’s decline as an example, he added that things could easily go from bad to worse without the right decision makers.
His words, “It’s a worry, it depends on who’s in charge of recruitment and running of the club. For me to give an educated answer on if they will go back up, for the people who are running the club at the moment, there’ll be no guarantees.
If a football person went in and ran the club, then yes, they should have the resources and deserve to be in charge to bounce straight back. But if you don’t bounce straight back straight away, it becomes very difficult. There’s giant clubs who have been down there and stayed down there for many, many years.
Leicester just shows you what can happen if your club’s poorly run. Even though the club’s poorly run, I look around their squad at the moment, they should never be in a relegation battle in the Championship. It’s a real crying shame.
Tottenham will be back. They’re not down yet. If they go down, they will be back. And it needs to be on the first attempt, in my opinion. And I think it’s the club capable of doing that. But you need to change the decision makers to be able to do that.”
WOW.
