O’Hara bursts into laughter as Jason Cundy calls out Tottenham ‘disgrace’
Tottenham’s mixed fortunes this season have been subject to ridicule.
Spurs have broken plenty of records, some less favourable than others, en route to a memorable campaign that is difficult to assess.
Tottenham lifted a trophy for the first time in 17 years, defying odds to also ensure qualification for the Champions League next season.
They simultaneously ended the year with their lowest points tally in a 38-game season following the 4-1 defeat to Brighton on the final day.
Ange Postecoglou has been at pains to explain that securing silverware should be the main focus of people’s perceptions, but certain aspects undeniably open the door for criticism.
Cundy says Arsenal fans will be laughing at Tottenham
Tottenham’s season will be remembered fondly for the Europa League victory, but it does not absolve the club’s dreadful league campaign.
| Competition | Wins | Draws | Losses | Goals For | Goals Against | Points |
| Premier League | 11 | 5 | 22 | 64 | 65 | 38 |
Spurs lost twice as many games as they won while recording only three victories in 2025, prompting Jason Cundy to ridicule co-host Jamie O’Hara’s former team live on talkSPORT (25 May).
Cundy said: “You lot are an absolute disgrace. You’ve got no shame, you lot, no shame!”
When O’Hara questioned this statement while laughing, Cundy doubled down.
“You’re an absolute disgrace, the worst side in London. West Ham finished above you, Palace finished above you, Fulham, Brentford… Everyone is laughing at you, Brentford are laughing at you, Chelsea are laughing at you, even Arsenal are laughing at you.
“17th, 38 points – absolutely disgusting, and do you know what, you won’t care, will you, you know why? Cause you’re just Spurs, and that’s why you’ll always be Spurs.”
The strategy to focus on their European exploits ultimately paid dividends, but even Postecoglou would not have envisaged quite such a drop-off of standards and could prove costly to his long-term prospects.
Spurs must change narrative around the club
Tottenham‘s size and status compared to their meagre return in on-field success has long seen them be the battering ram for rival clubs.
The Europa League success at least dispels some of the criticism fired their way in resetting the trophy timer, but it came at the expense of a truly disappointing domestic yield.
For the club to be universally considered as highly as it wishes to view itself, Spurs must use this season’s achievements as a building block to become a more dominant and feared side that challenges for major trophies on a consistent basis.
