HARRY REDKNAPP urged Spurs fans to keep the faith despite being held by lowly Wolves.
Luka Modric cancelled out Steven Fletcher's strike as Tottenham dropped two crucial points in the title race.
But boss Redknapp insisted his side must remain positive if they are to stay with Manchester pair City and United at the top.
Redknapp again played down the significance of this draw, insisting that the top four remains the club's aim.
He said: "I've never said to anybody that we are going to win the league.
"I know where we are at and if we can get a Champions League position again this season it will be great for us.
"I only answered their question of if it is possible and of course it is possible.
"Man City and Man United will be red hot favourites to win the league. But if we had a fantastic run in the second half like we have had in the first half of the season it could happen."
Spurs must start beating sides like Wolves if they are to sustain their challenge. But former West Ham and Portsmouth chief Redknapp knows all about sides fighting for their lives at the bottom of the table.
He added: "You know they are going to be difficult. When you turn up here on a Saturday afternoon you know you are in for a tough game.
"Teams are going to drop points against these teams, they are all working hard and fighting for survival.
"If you look at the results over the holiday period it shows how difficult it is.
"We all get disappointed when we don't win. But they are not just going to roll over. A point's a point. We're still on a great run.
"One wouldn't quite drop for us and they defended for their lives, worked hard and pressed us, closed us down and made it difficult."
Redknapp insisted he has no imminent plans to bring in new faces this month.
He said: "I'm off to watch a game tomorrow but whether its worth going in the end I won't know.
"We keep looking but we are not chasing too much I'll be honest with you.
"I haven't got anyone in mind I'd like to sign. Unless I could find someone who I thought could make a difference to us."
Wolves boss Mick McCarthy was full of praise for striker Fletcher, who scored his ninth league goal of the season and he also felt his side were worth the draw.
He said: "He is one of those rare commodities, a talented footballer who does everything else as well — he runs back for you, blocks shots and puts himself about.
"I'm delighted with the result because I though we deserved something from the game.
"I'm not suggesting we kept them quiet for 95 minutes because we didn't — but I think it was a good performance.
