Season summary

[edit]

A dismal start to the season cost Glenn Hoddle his job and he was sacked as manager on 21 September after two-and-a-half years at the helm.[1] Director of Football David Pleat took over first team duties until the end of the season[2] but was unable to inspire Tottenham to a challenge for European qualification, nor either of the cup competitions, and a 14th-place finish in the final table was Tottenham's lowest since 1998.
