Portsmouth intend to make an official complaint to the Football Association following the abuse at Sol Campbell by Spurs fans at Fratton Park last Sunday.
Campbell, who chose to leave Tottenham on to join rivals Arsenal in 2001, was subjected to prolonged insults.
Complaints from Portsmouth fans were made to Hampshire Police, who initially said they could not take action due to the huge number of Spurs fans involved.
After talks with Campbell, 34, Pompey have urged the FA to investigate.
In a statement Portsmouth said: "Both Sol and the club feel no player should be subjected to personal Police to act on Campbell taunts ...
Impressive Arsenal overwhelm Newcastle ... abuse of this nature and that it has no place in football.
"The club will be urging the FA to look into this as a matter of urgency and will co-operate fully in any investigations which take place, either by the FA or by Hampshire Police."
Meanwhile, a spokeswoman for Hampshire Police confirmed that one complaint had been made and that it would be investigated.
