JAMIE REDKNAPP has slammed Tottenham Hotspur’s ownership in a brutal rant on live TV.
The former Spurs midfielder has been left unimpressed with the club’s shambolic performance this season.
The North London outfit have lost 13 games in the Premier League and are slumped in 15th place ahead of Sunday’s game against Manchester United.
Manager Ange Postecoglou has come under huge pressure due to the poor form and FA Cup and Carabao Cup exits.
Spurs have had to deal with the most injuries in the league but are still way off their usual standards.
The club has boosted revenue streams off the pitch as the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a widely used venue.

The stadium will play host again to pop star Beyonce and NFL matches this year.
Tottenham recently extended their partnership with the NFL through to the 2029/30 season.
Redknapp however believes this has taken attention away from the team’s performances on the pitch.
He has claimed that the club’s board are happy as long as there is a “successful” business rather than football team.

Speaking on Sky Sports, he said: “As long as they’ve got the American Football and they’ve got Beyonce in the summer, they’re happy, the owners are happy.
“It looks like a business model that everyone can be happy with that can be successful.
“But does that breed a winning environment?
“No it does not because something is fundamentally wrong.
“They have tried to do both, but it has not worked and it has not worked the way Daniel Levy wants it to.”
Spurs fans are staging a massive protest against club chairman Daniel Levy during the match against United.
The demo has been organised by fed-up season-ticket holders named Change for Tottenham.
Protesters are marching ahead of the game and staging a sit-in protest at full-time in the South Stand.
The aim is to put pressure on majority owners ENIC to sell the club — and for chairman Levy to go.
