When Thomas Frank was appointed Tottenham Hotspur’s new head coach in June 2025, his task was to rebuild the club’s culture. But the defining image of his tenure — or rather the defining sound — was booing. And booing directed specifically at him. On today's Tifo Football Podcast, Joe Devine & Jon Mackenzie read and analyse Jack Pitt-Brooke and Jay Harris' inside read on Thomas Frank's sacking at Spurs. In this new format, 'Ring For Analysis', conversation ranges from booing, to unconscious downing of tools and a points-per-game quiz.Carl Recine / Staff / Getty Images Europe via GettyImages-2260368300
