Spurs fans were less than impressed to hear that Amazon, who are filming at the club ahead of a documentary release, were present to film the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino.
According to the Sun (via HotspurRelated), Amazon crew were in place to film Pochettino’s sacking and Jose Mourinho’s appointment as part of the documentary covering Spurs’ season. It will be called All or Nothing and is expected to be released at the end of the 2019/20 campaign.
They have certainly had a dramatic start to the documentary after Pochettino was sacked last week following a dreadful start to the season which left the North London side languishing in 14th place. Daniel Levy made the dramatic decision to axe Pochettino and bring in Mourinho, all of which was reportedly filmed by Amazon.
Were Spurs right to let Amazon film Pochettino's sacking?
Yes
No

That’s honestly not fair to Poch

If true, I really hope that footage isn’t screened. Shocking decision by the club to allow that to be filmed.

I’m never watching that. It’s a personal moment and is hugely distasteful to broadcast.

What a terrible way to treat a great man.

Not very classy by the club .. Some things should be done in private

Disgusting. It was a private matter.

What do we think?
Spurs fans were clearly less than impressed to hear that Amazon had filmed what should have been a private moment between Levy and Pochettino and feel that it is a very disrespectful way to treat someone who has done an awful lot for the club in terms of its progression.
It’s understandable as private moments like sackings need to be behind closed doors.
