City travelled to Spurs on Tuesday knowing a win would take them above Arsenal in the Premier League table. And it appears that attitude even spread to people working for the club, much to Postecoglou's frustration. Postecoglou was 'incensed' by the pre-match attitude of the supporters who wanted their team to lose.

I know what's important to build a winning team, that's what I need to concentrate on.

The ruling makes Victoria’s parliament one of the few in the world where MPs are banned from wearing the keffiyeh, the scarf that has been linked to the struggle for a Palestinian state for decades
