I say that, not because of Tottenham's three points from four games.
I say it not because they're fourth from bottom, nor because they deserved at least a point against Manchester United.
I say it because Jol - like a much-loved but slightly confused uncle- doesn't seem to have quite grasped his situation, or at least how to deal with it.
Take this for example:
"As for me - I'm not under pressure. The chairman's backing me and you can see today how the players are desperate to play for this team so there is no problem."
The chairman backing the manager is always the kiss of death and that backing is usually followed by a back-stabbing a few weeks later.
And then there's this:
"I said on Friday that I would rather die than sell Berbatov. Hopefully, I won't die. I am 100 per cent convinced he will stay at the club."
Berbatov wants to go - the frustration was clear against Man Utd - and his agent says he is due to talk with Spurs this week about renewed interest from Manchester.
And finally look at this:
"It is always handy that everyone is there if you want to see a club structure and how a club works."
He was talking about confirmation that his chairman Daniel Levy (who, let's not forget, is backing Jol) was part of a Spurs deputation which went to Spain for a meeting with reported managerial candidate Juande Ramos.
Tottenham deserved a draw on Monday morning and on a different day could have beaten Man Utd - certainly they had a good argument for a penalty.
But such decisions change football and the harsh fact is that Jol spent 40 million over the summer and has only a victory over Derby to show for it.
He is hugely popular with the fans, a very good manager and has improved Spurs year-on-year despite two-faced interference from Levy.
Jol's sacking would not be a knee-jerk reaction - the knives have been out for some time.
It is a little sad and undignified to see him sticking his fingers in his ears as a fat lady nearby warms up her vocal chords.
