It's Jol over for Jol !!!


Tottenham boss Martin Jol has tonight finally received, what many people taught was on the cards, the sack. Tottenham have got off to an absolute shocker of a start this season picking up only seven points from a possible thirty up for grabs and there have been calls for Jol's head ever since the second game this season. His final game in charge was tonight's game against Getafe in which they were defeated 2-1 despite taking the lead through Jermain Defoe.

Many people had said before tonights game that anything less than a victory would result in Jol getting the chop and that has proved to be the case. He took over three years ago after the brief spell of Jacques Santini at the Londoners. He led the club to two top 5 finishes in two seasons and had become a very popular figure with the Spurs faithful.

Speculation as to Jol's successor has been mounting for sometime now with names like Klinsman and Ramos repeatedly popping up. Ramos was rumoured to of talked to Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy at the beginning of the season and few would rule out a move for him now that Jol has gone. Mark Hughes is another name being mentioned although he is currently doing very well at Blackburn. So who do you think will take over now Jol has gone?
