'Biggest banter club in history' - Tottenham fans can't believe what's happening vs Bournemouth

Tottenham Hotspur had the chance to secure a top-four spot and Champions League football against Bournemouth on Saturday but made things extremely difficult for themselves.

After Eric Dier was fortunate not to be given his marching orders by referee Craig Pawson, the Lilywhites were reduced to ten men when Son Heung-Min was dismissed for a shove on Jefferson Lerma.

Mauricio Pochettino made changes at the break, including the withdrawal of Dier, but things took a turn for the worse when Juan Foyth was shown a straight red for a woeful challenge on Jack Simpson.

That left Tottenham playing the remainder of the game with just nine men and hands an opportunity to top-four rivals Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal, all of whom play later this weekend.

Naturally, Tottenham fans on social media were extremely angry as they quickly shared their thoughts on what they were witnessing.
