There was a grim determination to Thomas Frank’s post-match laps of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after several poor displays earlier this season. The Spurs boss insisted on covering near enough the full circumference of the pitch to applaud a rapidly thinning crowd following a draw with Wolves and again after a defeat to Aston Villa.
It didn’t look to be much fun. Spurs have been regularly booed off this season and Frank has since shortened his commute back to the dressing room. After the recent defeat to Fulham, he just about managed a lap of the centre circle.
