FURIOUS Tottenham supporters protested outside of the club’s training ground to vent their anger at the owners.
The club is in turmoil both on and off the pitch at the moment with question marks over manager Antonio Conte’s future.
However, the fans are keen to ensure the club are well aware their primary discontent is centered around the top brass.
That is the Enic Group which owns 86.58 per cent and is headed up by billionaire Joe Lewis alongside Daniel Levy, Spurs’ chairman.
A small group of fans gathered at the entrance to the Hotspur Way Training Ground in Enfield on Saturday morning.
Some of the protesters carried placards while others pinned banners up in the hedges across the road.

Another wrote: “Well done to all at the protest. Should be thousands there but shame about the turnout.”
But a third added: “Come on this is embarrassing. I’m not a Levy fan but if you are going to put pics of a protest on maybe more than 20 people would be good.”
And a final user commented: “Sure that’s not just the queue for the bus?”
Despite the £1billion new stadium, Tottenham fans have seen their side lift a trophy of any kind since the League Cup 15 years ago.
Their last league title came way back in 1961 and their current form shows no signs the barren run will end any time soon.
