Disillusionment and disbelief - thousands leave early as Spurs in freefall
"Anxiety was all through the stadium. The whole performance was tepid. There was no bite and no anger and the fans were feeling that. It feels like they have given up. It looks like the fans are disenchanted and not believing it. When Tudor was appointed as interim boss last month, he said Tottenham "100%" wouldn't go down. It would take a brave person to say that now."
"Of course i understand the fans [leaving]. It's normal, they wanted more. I need to choose the right guys: Who is in the boat and who will leave the boat. Tudor refused to be drawn into conversations about his future after full-time, despite questions already being raised about whether he would see out the season."
"I'm lost for words over what I've seen tonight. You want fight, desire and most importantly points. It is too much for a lot of people and this is the rea[son fans are leaving]. Spurs remain the only Premier League side without a victory in 2026. Their 11-match winless league run is the club's longest since 1935."
Tottenham suffered a devastating 3-1 defeat to Crystal Palace at home, with the match effectively decided in the first half after Micky van de Ven's red card and penalty concession. The club remains winless in 2026 and has not secured a victory in 11 consecutive league matches, their longest such run since 1935. With only nine matches remaining and sitting just one point above the relegation zone, Tottenham faces genuine danger of losing their Premier League status for the first time. Interim manager Igor Tudor, who claimed the club would "100%" avoid relegation upon his appointment, has lost all three matches in charge. Fan frustration is evident, with thousands leaving early and those remaining jeering at full-time, reflecting widespread anxiety and loss of belief in survival.
