GARY NEVILLE has predicted the exact date he thinks Tottenham will sack Ange Postecoglou.
The beleaguered Aussie boss is suffering a dismal season in the dugout, losing eight of his last 10 league matches.

Neville fears Big Ange could fall short in two key fixtures
Spurs sit 15th in the table with just seven wins and 13 defeats from 23 games.
And their latest loss was a dismal 2-1 collapse at home to lowly Leicester.
Postecoglou appears to be clinging on ahead of a tough run of fixtures.
But there are two games which are set to be crucial in deciding his future.
On February 6, Tottenham will look to defend a 1-0 lead in the second leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final against Liverpool.
Just three days later they then take on Champions League hopefuls Aston Villa in a tough contest.
Postecoglou has maintained he “always wins a trophy in the second season.”
But defeat in both of those competitions would see him with just the Europa League to play for.
And Neville reckons should Tottenham lose to both Liverpool and Villa, Daniel Levy will pull the trigger on Big Ange’s time in north London.
Neville told The Overlap: “I think if he loses the second leg of the Carabao Cup to Liverpool, and he goes out the FA Cup to Villa away, I think it will become so toxic that Daniel Levy will act.
“If they’re out of the cup competitions I think he will act.
“If they’re in the cup competitions I think he might [stay].
“[Levy] can’t do it now before the cup games, the fans will kill him.”
Wayne Rooney, who was left Plymouth Argyle in December, continued: “Some managers you look at, they annoy you.
“But with Postecoglou, I love how honest he is. We had it with Louis van Gaal, sometimes you can be too honest and it comes back to kill you.
“With Ange, injuries have absolutely killed him. I don’t think it’s just about trophies [for fans], the fall-off this season is what no one has seen coming.
“If Spurs were consistently now in the top four and getting to semis and finals, I would have thought they would be quite pleased.”
