Thomas Frank Has to Be Sacked Tonight as Tottenham Fans Explode After Newcastle Defeat

Tottenham Hotspur's woes deepened dramatically as they suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Newcastle United on February 10, 2026, sparking furious calls for head coach Thomas Frank's immediate dismissal from enraged fans.[1][2][3]

Newcastle, who had struggled on the road with just two wins in their last 15 away league games, controlled the match from the outset. Malick Thiaw gave the Magpies a deserved half-time lead with a stoppage-time strike, prompting boos for Tottenham's players and chants for former boss Mauricio Pochettino from the home crowd.[1][2][3] Frank himself faced pre-match jeers and "you're getting sacked in the morning" taunts as pressure mounted.[1][2]

Spurs showed brief fightback spirit in the second half, with Archie Gray equalizing in the 64th minute by tapping home to ignite momentary hope.[1][2][3] But the joy was short-lived; just four minutes later, Jacob Ramsey swept in the winner from inside the box, securing a crucial victory that lifted Newcastle to 10th place and ended their four-game winless run.[1][2][5]

The loss extended Tottenham's winless league streak to eight games—no victories in 2026—and marked their seventh home defeat in 13 Premier League matches this season, matching or exceeding relegation strugglers like Wolves and West Ham.[1][4] Now slumped to 16th, Spurs are mired in a relegation battle, with Frank's win percentage at a dismal 26.9%, the lowest of any Tottenham manager in the Premier League era.[1][2]

Compounded by 11 absentees and tepid displays, the abject performance has left ownership facing a major decision ahead of the North London derby against Arsenal in 12 days. Fans exploded post-match, booing the team off and demanding Frank's sacking tonight amid chants echoing their desperation.[1][2][3] Newcastle's Eddie Howe, meanwhile, eased his own pressure with this rare away triumph.[1]
