BFR's greatest playing achievements were for the Villa fourth team. I take your point, but you aren't seriously comparing those first four managerial greats with Redknapp, are you? I don't think any of them got clubs they managed bankrupted and/or relegated, did they, and while Redknapp won a FA Cup with Pompey, and had a couple of half decent seasons with West Ham and Spurs, he never won a damned thing as far as I can remember.

I'm not keen on taking the piss out of his appearance, for the reasons stated in this thread and, countless times before, elsewhere on this forum.He's still a terrible human being and a poor manager though, take the piss out of those facts instead.
the left by the fire to melt look isn't that becoming though is it?

I don't think Harry Redknapp is a particularly good manager at all, but how good he was as a player has nothing to do with it.

That seems a bit harsh. Unless you know something about him that isn't public knowledge.

Not many.
I would just like to apologise unreservedly for posting a tongue-in-cheek remark about Harry.
Ron Saunders got relegated with sha and the Bitters.
Ask him he thinks the F.A passed him over when they appointed Woy. Oh, and ask him why Barry didn't take the penalty.

That seems a bit harsh. Unless you know something about him that isn't public knowledge. There are obviously certain things it's not wise to say on here. Certain wealthy people like Redknapp, Gerrard and OJ Simpson obtain not guilty verdicts and I'll make no comment on them whatsoever.Outside of that though, I disliked the way he stormed out of an interview because they called him a wheeler-dealer, the precious twat. Even though he spends every transfer deadline day hanging out the side of his environment-destroying vehicle boasting about all the wheeler-dealing he's doing. I don't like the way he's been to thousands of football matches, including Portsmouth v Southampton and Arsenal v Tottenham derbies, and probably heard quite a lot of naughty language. Yet the only time he feels the need to complain is when it is directed at him. Despite the fact he's incapable of stringing a sentence together without swearing. (Before anyone suggests that I'm condoning them, this does not in any way justify the twattish actions of the moron who threw a coin at him in our subsequent meeting).He just seems like the sort of person I would hate. Probably votes UKIP and has all U2's albums, too.
