Thousands of Spurs fans marched outside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ahead of their Premier League clash against Southampton, once again directing fury towards Daniel Levy and ENIC in a passionate protest demanding change.
A Tottenham fan protest against the club’s ownership is nothing new, and this season has seen that resistance grow louder.
The fanbase had already staged two separate protests prior to the Southampton game on Sunday afternoon, with one of the protests coming before their second league meeting with Manchester United – a coordinated mix of a sit-in and a walk-in protest.
Earlier in the campaign, Spurs fans also gathered for a protest ahead of the Liverpool fixture, which ended in a humiliating 6-3 defeat.
With tensions running high off the pitch, it’s clear the disconnect between supporters and ownership remains a persistent theme.
Tottenham fans protest against Daniel Levy and ENIC before Southampton win
Ahead of Sunday’s meeting with Southampton – a side battling for survival at the bottom of the table – Tottenham Hotspur supporters once again turned out in huge numbers to voice their anger at chairman Daniel Levy and the ENIC regime.
The message couldn’t have been more direct: fans held banners and chanted for the 63-year-old to “get out of our club”.
MORE SPURS STORIES
Levy’s time at the helm has been defined more by managerial turnover than silverware, with Spurs still without a trophy since winning the League Cup back in 2008.
It was a protest rooted in long-standing frustrations, not just results on the pitch. For many fans, Levy represents a leadership model that has prioritised profit margins over on-field ambition.
Tottenham fans also carried the protest into the stadium with chants of ‘we want Levy out’ ringing around the ground after the second goal went in. Win or lose, the Lilywhite faithful want to see the back of their chairman.
Spurs fans’ protest shows frustrations go deeper than results
Even though Spurs still have a chance of ending their trophy drought this season – with a Europa League quarter-final against Frankfurt coming up – these protests aren’t likely to stop, no matter how the campaign ends.
Plenty of fans are fed up with what they see as Levy’s continued lack of ambition. The Spurs chairman’s comments after the club’s recent financial report, where he insisted Tottenham wouldn’t “put themselves at financial risk” this summer, only added fuel to the fire.
Supporters are growing tired of hearing the same rhetoric, especially when the club’s wage bill continues to drop – a glaring contrast when compared to the rest of the so-called ‘big six’.
For many, it’s another reminder that Spurs are operating like a business first, and a football club second.
One thing is for certain, this is unlikely to be the last Tottenham protest of 2025.
