Daniel Levy has been in the news lately as he joined some other Premier League executives to stop Newcastle United from being taken over by a new ownership group with support from the Saudi Arabian government.
The Daily Mail reports that some EPL execs also tried to stop the Magpies from earning a new lucrative sponsorship deal and the Spurs supremo was heavily involved.
Frank McAvennie is unimpressed with Levy’s contribution in trying to block another club from making progress and says he is doing that out of fear.
The former West Ham man also blasted him for not speaking to the Tottenham fans via the THST.
With the Lilywhites supporters turned against him, McAvennie says he doesn’t have a leg to stand on.
Now he is worried that Newcastle will knock Tottenham off their perch and Spurs cannot compete against the wealth that their new owners possess.
“Levy isn’t even talking to the fans now, he’s blanking them,” McAvennie told Football Insider.
“He hasn’t got a leg to stand on, the fans have fully turned on him.
“It’s as if he’s trying to wind them up as much as possible. He thinks he doesn’t have to answer to anybody.
“This has all come from fear. Levy is scared that Newcastle could knock Tottenham off the map.
“He cannot compete with that wealth. Not being able to compete scares Levy.
“He tried to stop the takeover, now he’s trying to stop sponsors, grow up.
“Honestly, it’s pathetic, I’m embarrassed for him.”
