Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou on the touchline during the Emirates FA Cup third round match at The Lamb Ground, Tamworth, January 12, 2025
TOTTENHAM boss Ange Postecoglou has expressed his disappointment with some of the “pretty vile and detestable” chants he received from a minority of Tamworth supporters during Sunday’s FA Cup tie.
Spurs made hard work of last weekend’s third-round clash at the National League outfit before they won 3-0 after extra time.
Postecoglou’s side turn their focus to tomorrow’s trip to rivals Arsenal but asked if he could expect another hostile atmosphere at Ashburton Grove after an uncompromising welcome at the Lamb Ground on Sunday, the 59-year-old highlighted some of the “unacceptable” behaviour he experienced.
