The betting 'sting' is a bit rubbish but this is good though
An undercover reporter then asked whether Redknapp would also be interested if the fictitious Far East firm went for another option — third-party ownership of players. He was asked: “If we don’t buy the club but we’re looking at doing the third-party ownership and get those players into England, and you happen to be in a position in the club would you be interested in co-operating then as well?”
Redknapp replied: “Yeah, absolutely, any way I could help, you know. Listen I put my money where my mouth is and all you know, if you, if you’re gonna buy players, now, if I’m involved in picking the players then I don’t mind having an investment and having a little bit of a, you know, not a thing obviously but you know, I’d put a few quid in and take a chance with you. I need something to do with my money as well, don’t I? Can’t be fairer than that can you?”
When they later called him to comment -
On the issue of third-party ownership, Redknapp said: “It’s not something that I’ve ever been involved in, and it’s not something that I’d want to get involved in. As far as buying players go and me investing, you’ve got to be dreaming. I would not invest, why would I invest in buying footballers?”

Joey maybe??
I just came in my pants - imagine if it was Harry and joey on the same day.
Also, just imagine that Howe takes the England job, Harry's a shoe-in, then when at last it looks like his dream gig, managing on his doorstep - the story breaks and Harry can never manage another club again... then his knee gives way, and it ends up with a Lou and Andy scenario where Harry is getting pushed around in his wheelchair by Niko, muttering 'very 'ard' every 5 seconds.
Pinch me!

I can't think of any game we've won with Redknapp in charge that didn't matter apart from the Barnsley away game. Hopefully for once it means it's not us. Also redknapp obviously hated us so much I doubt he remembers many of our games

Right. It's Friday night after a very trying few days for all concerned, and with a potential nightmare of a match coming up tomorrow, so I don't think there's ever been a better time to dig this up again.
Enjoy, and watch at least 28 times before you go to bed.
Thanks, Long.
I've always used this one as that stirs the emotions. Love the man.
I know it's a Scott Jones video but it's the same one the club released when he left. Club legend, in my book and better than King Kev.

Look, I'll admit I have mixed views on Hasselbaink and I'm waiting to see the outcome of the investigation, but isn't this all starting to sound a bit desperate from the Telegraph?
They won't release the transcripts or full videos for no given reason other than that apparently the police want to see them. As a criminal lawyer, there's no legal reason why the police need to see them first - they could release them to everyone at the same time. So why not?
On top of that, I don't really see what Eric Black has done wrong, I don't see what Redknapp has done wrong (this time) given that he wasn't managing a club at the time and therefore not under FA rules, and if Jimmy's right, I don't see what he's done wrong.
If Jimmy asked for money in return for looking favourably on players sent for him to recommend to us, that's corrupt and he should never work in football again. But I don't think that's what the limited evidence the Telegraph have put forward shows. It splices two meetings together. He does seem to be talking about going to the far east when the money is mentioned. Admittedly it looks bad, but if the Telegraph were confident in their investigations, why not disclose all of the footage/transcripts? I repeat, there is no reason in law not to provide the full evidence to QPR. If the Telegraph are being genuine in their investigations, their subsequent behaviour is difficult to understand.

Doesn't even include his double at home to Leicester the day my Grandad passed away when he bullied Keown to bits and we came back from 2-0 down to win 3-2.
What an all round player.

Exactly the reason (but more knowledgably put) as to why I'm beginning, like a few others, do change me view. What are the Telegraph doing? Position seems weaker than I thought.
Even this Redknapp stuff is lightweight compared to what I thought they'd have on him.

Not sure I agree about the knowledgeable bit, but let's face it - we've all heard worse about Redknapp (as did a jury).
I agree with Northern, the real problem is perception here if Jimmy's telling the truth (see comments on Redknapp!). However, there's something really uncomfortable with what the Telegraph are doing; the evidence is getting thinner and thinner, and they seem to be prepared to release less and less of it. Jimmy might be guilty, but the club are right to insist on seeing all of the evidence first, and I cannot think of a journalisticly (I know that's not a word) honest reason of why the Telegraph wouldn't give the club the full evidence.

Oing how dare you come on here spouting legal facts and getting in the way of a good pitchfork fest.
That Redknapp betting thing just sounds like a bollocks story - something made up. None of it really rings true - the Telegraph seems to be scraping the barrel already so I'm not sure that Jimmy's episode is going to be floating in an ocean of corruption.

Thanks Hunter.
Like you, this stirs my blood & I have even forgiven him for playing for Enfield!
IF, we need an acting manager, Paul Furlong is the man.
