Jusoda Kid 1 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Must admit I'm seriously underwhelmed, sounds like it is almost done. I hope he brings Tony Adams with him though, would be majorly pissed off it not, a good coach but chances are he might fancy the Pompey job. Is that ITK info?

David Kelly 1245 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Let's be realistic. Nobody better than Redknapp will come to the club. Doesn't matter how much money you throw at them, because bigger and better clubs are worth waiting for. This might be true but clearly we haven't gone for them or a deal for Redknapp couldn't be nearly done. And if we were putting feelers out before Sam got the bullet and found out that they weren't interested then why bother sacking one mediocre manager to get another in. Would have much preferred Jol myself and surely he would have been interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think no-one seriously expects the likes of Mourinho and Lippi to even consider the job, but I would think there are other managers in Europe who could easily be persuaded to manage one of the Premier League's wealthier and bigger clubs.

luckyluke 2 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Spurs got Ramos, after all. Speaking of which, I'd take Martin Jol over Redknapp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 99 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 PORTSMOUTH boss Harry Redknapp is reportedly heading to Newcastle on a plane to talk about taking over at St James's Park, it was reported tonight.The Pompey boss has already stressed that he is happy on the South Coast, but Sky Sports news is reporting specualtion that Redknapp is on his way to Tyneside in a plane to meet with United owner Mike Ashley. Portsmouth have recently released a statement saying speculation surrounding Redknapp's future at Fratton Park is 'unhelpful'. It reads: "We take it as a compliment that our players and personnel are often linked with some of the top clubs in this country, and indeed abroad. "It is testimony to the quality of their work. "However, we do feel it necessary to correct some of the inaccuracies in reports that have surfaced today. "The club has received no approach for the services of our valued manager Harry Redknapp. He remains as committed as ever to this football club and he recently signed a new, improved four-year contract with Portsmouth. "We're in the middle of the busiest time of the season because of the heavy fixture list and month-long transfer window and, as such, this speculation is unhelpful." http://www.shieldsgazette.com/nufc/Is-Harr...lane.3662493.jp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a joke though, Spurs sack a decent manager and get Ramos, we sack ours and get Redknapp. I'd rather have Shearer and Keegan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 This news that Redknapp is on a plane from Southampton to Newcastle - has anyone checked the times, as the plane doesn't take off for a couple of hours I love Sky Sports News. I remember when they had to report news rather than bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
