Nottingham Forest boss Ange Postecoglou launched a staunch defence of his Premier League managerial record and his first season at Tottenham Hotspur in an extraordinary news conference on Friday.
"[First season at Tottenham] disappeared from the record books," Postecoglou said.
"In fact it was used as a reason for me losing my job because even Tottenham decided to exclude the first 10 games [after which Spurs were top of the Premier League] because they were an anomaly apparently -- although the first 10 games here are very important apparently."
