Tottenham Hotspur’s defeat at the weekend sparked a debate online.
Tottenham Hotspur legend Graham Roberts has sent a defiant message towards his detractors.
Roberts drew some criticism on social media after Tottenham’s loss to Liverpool at the weekend.
He was defending the club’s transfer policy after the defeat, pointing out the financial constraints the club is working under.
Some fans hit back at Roberts by accusing him of sucking up to the club’s board.
The former Spurs captain was put out by the abuse he received, and said yesterday that his achievements with the club as a player can never be taken away from him.
Tottenham’s loss to Liverpool was their second in succession and fan frustration is understandable.
Graham Roberts along with ex-Spurs ace Micky Hazard both bore the brunt of criticism after they attempted to defend the club they once played for.
The defeat means Tottenham are in sixth place, still a respectable start, although they are six points behind leaders Chelsea and Liverpool.
