Tottenham manager Robert Vilahamn's job at risk

Tottenham manager Robert Vilahamn's job at risk

Yahoo12-05-2025

Tottenham are considering sacking manager Robert Vilahamn this summer after a disappointing campaign.
Vilahamn led the club to the Women's FA Cup final in his debut season but Spurs finished second-bottom in the Women's Super League this year.
He joined from Swedish side BK Hacken in 2023 and was given a three-year contract extension last July.
Only relegated Crystal Palace shipped more goals than Tottenham in 2024-25 and Spurs' points tally of 20 was 11 fewer than they recorded last season.
The club had ambitions of closing the gap on the WSL's top four but sources suggest they are unhappy with the direction under Vilahamn.
Senior assistant coach Vicky Jepson has already left the club to take up a role with the United States women's youth teams.
The decision on Vilahamn's future will be made by the club's board as they prepare for a crucial summer of recruitment.

Uriah Rennie, the Premier League's first Black referee, dies at 65

SHEFFIELD, England (AP) — Uriah Rennie, the first Black referee in the Premier League, has died. He was 65. 'We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our former chair and trailblazing referee, Uriah Rennie," the Sheffield and Hallamshire County Football Association posted Sunday on X. Advertisement 'Uriah made history as the Premier League's first Black referee, officiating over 300 top-flight matches between 1997 and 2008," the statement said. "He broke down barriers, shaped our football community and inspired generations to come." The Jamaica-born official grew up in Sheffield, northern England, and oversaw hundreds of matches starting with his breakthrough appointment when Derby hosted Wimbledon in August 1997. That game was abandoned, however, because the stadium lighting failed. Rennie told BBC News in April how, while on holiday in Turkey last year, he felt severe pain in his back and doctors discovered he had an inoperable neurological condition that confined him to a wheelchair. ___ AP soccer:
