ANGE POSTECOGLOU has hit out at the “vile and detestable” abuse he received at Tamworth - claiming he had objects thrown at him. Spurs were taken to extra-time by the National League side in Sunday’s FA Cup third-round clash - before running out 3-0 winners.

For the most part, Postecoglou enjoyed the interaction he had with the crowd at the 4,000-capacity Lamb Ground. But he was unhappy with some of the flak he received, with social media footage capturing supporters shouting “w***er, w***er” at the Aussie from behind the dugouts.
Spurs chief Postecoglou said: “I said after the game, credit to Andy (Peaks) and his players and the people of Tamworth at the football club. “I thought they did themselves proud on the day with the way they presented everything. 90 per cent of the crowd were very good and enjoyed the banter.
“There was 10 per cent who were pretty unacceptable. “The stuff I heard was pretty vile and detestable, and getting things thrown at me, not a great experience, but we’re kind of expected to be the bigger person. “I would have loved to have turned around and not be the bigger person in that moment, but you deal with it and go on.”.
Postecoglou’s side will have an extra recovery session on Tuesday after the rigours of playing on Tamworth’s plastic pitch. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS.
