I know 'Arry's not the most popular figure around these parts (I can't remember why), but laughing at someone getting robbed is a bit shit really.

He won't be unlucky when Lassana lands at White hart lane, I'm convinced Bale is going to Madrid, that's why they got VDV so cheap and why I think they will get Diarra

Cant stand the bloke, but laughing at someone getting robbed is a bit sad.

One of the worst match reports I've ever read.... didn't even say how the goal was created or at what stage of the game it was scored.

I was at the game and noticed that a couple of guys in the lower tier of the uncovered stand at the side were having a ruck, punching and hurling each other half a dozen rows down the stand. Maybe it was 'arry trying to catch the perpetrators.

Exactly the same thing happened to me in Madrid a few years ago. Strolling through the streets at night with my wife and some guy goes down on the ground in front of me pulling at my trousers. As I deal with him to stop him his mate behind takes my wallet while I chase after the wrong guy. get back to the hotel to phone the credit card company and they've already spent over 3000 euros at a number of non-existent 'bars' specially set up for the purpose. Nasty, but effective and you have to admit, a bit clever.

Will join you in a chuckle nico for no other reason than rednap has a very troublesome transfer past,but more importantly is a media darling who is basically rent a quote for sky.

A common thing among pickpockets in Madrid is for them to approach young guys, say hello, act pally, try and get you to do the ''Ronaldo shuffle'' with them while they rummage through your pockets. Once you've noticed they're already away. The sleight of hand is something else.

Bit harsh on nico here from some here.

Anyone who tells a story about two blokes getting down on the knees in front of him and pulling at his trousers will get a chuckle from me.

Doesn't mean nico finds the fact that he got mugged amusing.

Read it again after you've had our morning coffee.

Um...it's not amatch report.

It's a story about Harry Redknapp getting mugged.
