Scott Parker has been labelled out of touch with the real world by talkSPORT host Hugh Woozencroft as Jose Mourinho insisted the Fulham boss should apologise for calling the short-notice of his side’s Tottenham fixture ‘scandalous’.
Fulham will travel to Spurs on 48 hours’ notice this Wednesday as the postponed clash was rescheduled to take place instead of Tottenham’s match with Aston Villa, which got pushed back by COVID-19.
“Football is showing, once again, it is disconnected with the real world,” Woozencroft said.
The Spurs boss said: “In relation to Fulham, I think we should wait for tomorrow.
It’s just a feeling that I have, the best Fulham will be here, so when we see the best Fulham, then you realise lots of things don’t make sense.
Reacting to the news, the Fulham manager described the short notice of the Spurs fixture as ‘scandalous’ – and Mourinho was not impressed with his former Chelsea player.
The London derby was originally due to take place on December 30 before an outbreak of coronavirus at Fulham meant it was called off just three hours before it was due to kick-off.
