REACTION: Spurs 1-2 Fulham - Spurs Suffer Yet Another Dismal Defeat At Home | Where Do We Go From Here?

Jack is joined by Gavin to dissect yet another miserable afternoon in N17 as Tottenham fell to a 2-1 defeat against Fulham. We digest the reality that Spurs have managed just one home win all season, and ask if time is finally up for Thomas Frank. Is he simply unable to handle this level of football, or is it too hasty to pull the trigger? If he does go, who steps in? They look into the potential candidates to replace him and weigh up the pros and cons of another managerial reset. We also touch on the ownership, despite the noise of a boardroom reshuffle, we ask if a leopard can truly change its spots, and discuss what we actually need to see to believe the club isn't entering a death spiral. Finally, we look ahead to Tuesday night’s trip to Newcastle. Is there any hope of a result at St James' Park, or are we destined for another walloping?

Jack is joined by Charlie Parrish to pick the bones out of the 5-3 defeat to PSG. We discuss why, despite the result, there were genuine green shoots of promise in Paris, diving into the stylistic shifts and personnel tweaks Thomas Frank employed, and what this new look means for the rest of the season. We also debate the Xavi Simons situation, is he just taking time to adapt, or is he the latest victim of the club's disjointed squad building? Questions this week cover whether we need to ignore the spectre of Arsenal’s success to truly enjoy Tottenham again, what tracks would feature on Thomas Frank’s Apple playlist, and the morality of passing on Spurs fandom to our children.

Jack is on the mic to react to a breathless 5-3 defeat to PSG in the Champions League. It was a performance that arguably defied the scoreline. Plenty of attacking promise and evidence that Thomas Frank is attempting to be more positive, but ultimately undone by moments of madness at the back and the sheer quality of PSG. Discussion covers the harsh reality of individual errors at this level, why there is reason for stoicism rather than panic, and the undeniable positives to take from a chaotic night in Paris.

Jack is joined by friend of the show Phil to pick through the wreckage of a 4-1 battering at the hands of Arsenal. We discuss how the universe seems to have conspired to let Eze bag a hat-trick against us, the alarming lack of fight within the squad, and the urgent need for the Lewis family to make good on their promises and re-energise this husk of a football club. We also put the spotlight on Thomas Frank, is he the man for the long term, or is he struggling under the pressure of the job? Theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack welcomes The Fighting Cock’s head honcho Flav back to the show ahead of the North London derby for a defiantly anti-Arsenal chat. They get into Flav’s disdain for the commodification of the fixture and whether the divide between the clubs has ever felt this wide since the peak Wenger years. Flav then answers your questions, from which injured player deserves the super magic sponge, to whether you’d trade a 4–0 derby win for a week of Marv-from-Home Alone-style trauma. There’s also a debate about rogue roast dinner condiments, the place of HP and chilli sauce at Christmas, and Flav’s favourite Radiohead tune. Theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen.

With the international break upon us, Jack brings some light relief to Rule the Roost by welcoming Dan Kilpatrick, Tom Hayward and Sean Walsh for a Spurs quiz special.

Then it’s onto Quizmaster Tom Foin’s meticulously crafted questions, from top-scoring nationalities to North London Derby brain-teasers, as the lads battle it out for Spurs trivia supremacy. A fun, semi-competitive detour from the usual soul-searching and arse wobbling. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jack is joined by Oly to reflect on Tottenham’s weekend performance against Manchester United. They discuss Randal Kolo Muani’s frustrating injury just as he was starting to find form, and ask whether Richarlison’s time at Spurs should finally be up despite his goal. With fans calling for academy striker Dane Scarlett to be given a real chance, the pair debate whether it’s time to throw him in and see if he’s truly cut out for the Premier League. The conversation then turns to Thomas Frank. Is he really the right man to lead this project forward, or have we already seen enough to suggest that he quite simply isn't up to it?
