Tottenham Hotspur found themselves the subject of a chant from Lincoln City supporters, given their precarious position near the Premier League's relegation zone. Spurs currently sit in 16th place, just a single point clear of the bottom three.

Igor Tudor took over as Tottenham's interim manager last month on a contract that lasts until the end of the season, but has suffered defeats in all three of his games at the helm so far.

This poor run of form has fuelled rumours about Tudor's future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with rumours suggesting his tenure at Spurs may be in doubt.

With only nine Premier League fixtures remaining this season, Tottenham will return to top-tier action next weekend when they face off against reigning champions Liverpool .

Despite Tottenham having no fixture this weekend due to the FA Cup taking centre stage, there were still matches unfolding across the EFL, including in Cardiff , reports football.london .

Saturday saw Lincoln City secure a 2-0 victory away at League One title contenders Cardiff City, propelling them above the Bluebirds to the summit of the third-tier table.

Lincoln now boast a 10-point lead in the automatic promotion spots, with a game in hand, and are widely tipped for promotion to the Championship next season.

Consequently, there's a chance that Lincoln and Tottenham could find themselves in the same league next season, should Spurs suffer relegation from the Premier League.

This prospect wasn't overlooked by some Lincoln supporters, who mocked Tottenham whilst celebrating their victory over Cardiff.

Footage surfaced on social media showing Lincoln's travelling fans inside Cardiff City Stadium after the home crowd had departed, launching into a chant aimed at Tottenham.

"Tottenham away, ole, ole," rang out from sections of Lincoln fans.

Tudor is anticipated to stay in the Tottenham dugout for Tuesday night's Champions League last-16 clash against Atletico Madrid, with the Spurs interim manager offering his assessment of the club's current predicament following the midweek loss to Crystal Palace .

"I don't want to speak about the club. I want to be positive," Tudor said on Thursday after the defeat to Palace.

"I cannot tell the guys nothing in the end after this game. They gave everything. Unfortunately, we pay every detail. We pay every detail.

"If we can say that red card is a detail, there is always something to say. With all the problems we have now, missing the defenders today, missing the full-backs, these are the problems we already know. I don't want to speak about that, but we need to stay together now.

"I always repeat the same things, but it is how it is. Believing and growing. Do not make mistakes. This is the key in the end of football. Stay there, don't make mistakes. One goal, you always score. Two goals, you can score, but it's important to not make mistakes in football.

"Unfortunately, now, in this moment, we pay everything, but in return, I believe, we change everything. Still nine games to play. Still nine games to play."
