Tottenham supporters' trust have called on FA Chairman Greg Dyke to respond to their request urging the national governing body to allow Spurs to play at Wembley while the club's new stadium is being built.
The trust released a statement on their website on Tuesday in which they revealed they had written to Dyke to ask him to "make every effort" to ensure the club could host games at Wembley for the 2017-18 season, but had not yet received a response.
THST claims that some supporters had, however, been sent responses which told them the FA would not comment on "confidential commercial matters", resulting in the trust demanding that the national governing body hold a meeting to fully address their concerns.
"This response is unacceptably dismissive. We call again on the FA to respond, properly, to our request for an explanation," the statement read.
"We are not asking for preferential treatment for our Club. Quite the opposite. We do not want one club to be treated more favourably than another by the game’s governing body.
"We want the FA to help its member clubs, including THFC. We have spoken to our Club, as the FA advises, and now we want to speak to the FA, to get some answers and to ease some of our concerns.
"Is the FA going to avoid its responsibility to take a lead and ensure the continued welfare of one of its member clubs? Is it going to dismiss the genuine concerns of fans and hide behind commercial confidentiality? Or is it going to act like the governing body of English football?
"Once again, we call on the FA to meet with us and to engage properly on this important matter. Anything less will be a failure of leadership."
The statement comes after Spurs revealed plans last week which proposes to turn White Hart Lane into a 61,000 all-seater stadium.
However, the work will mean the club will have to play their matches in the 2017-18 season elsewhere, with Tottenham believed to have made Wembley their top destination although MK Dons’ ground has also been considered.
But the desire to move to Wembley could see Spurs compete with Chelsea as the Blues also face having to find a temporary new home if plans for their new ground are finalised.
