hang on a cotton picking minute, 'us' ? why did you say this then? 'because you lot are thick cant get that in your head'

it feels terribly familiar like i'll give you that

That's harsh man and not fair at all. Harry has shown this season that if he gets enough good players together he can have them performing at a high enough level to have some success. In my opinion the only thing that team lacks is a real goalscorer. Had they succeeded in signing anelka or Yakubu in the summer they would have been a very serious threat to the top 4. People say he's a side step, but I would appreciate something more concrete. What exactly do you think he does poorly. All I see is a manager who manages players well, does well in the transfer market, and now having assembled a decent team is actually having some success with them. So what are his specific flaws? We easily pointed out Allardyces, what are Redknapps? TBh Harry hasn't shown anything in hiw whole carrer I'm remotely interested in. If by the time you are 60 you can't spot the odd player and know how to manage player expectations and needs then your'e not trying. Nothing he does is ground breaking. He might be slightly better than SA in some aspects, but is this what all this was really about?? I'm astounded. If it is him I wish him the best, but really will never understand this move. Maybe it's down to a lack of opportunity though? Gets a little bit of money and Portsmouth make a huge leap in justy over a year. Look, I'm not saying everyone should be ecstatic here, but I'm just not sure I agree that he is no better than Allardyce. Yes, Allardyce did finish higher with less money. However, some might argue that he cheated, by having to resort to his style of football and buying players that suited this style only. It seems that it is all he knows too, which was unfortunate for us and him. haha, you've lost the plot mate!

because you lot are thick cant get that in your head i can construct sentences, <---- (thats a comma) so i mustn't be THAT thick

SSN have been hammering the 'so called big club' line all day

Could we really be that stupid? Could Redknapp really be that stupid? SSN must be making this up. why would they have waited until tomorrow?

Coming up to midnight. ok, if anyone sees it let me know what they say, cant get ssn on at the mo

what time do they usually do tomorrows papers?

OMG, the southern-based media is inserting a letter so they call us arse! BASTARDS! well if you're gonna be an arse you might aswell be a new arse

Aye, appointing Redknapp would all make it seem very clique-y at the top. Regardless of whether or not Ashley's had a pint with the fans. Appointing his best mate's best mate? couldnt give a rats ass if he appoints his mam to be honest, as long as she gets the right results

I honestly think he be good for you. Better than Jol by a distance and more streetwise than Hughes. He might seem like an East London barrow boy but so is Kemsley, so is Ashley. The fact that they've known each other for years counts for a hell of a lot imho. If Redknapp said he wanted to spend £50m in this window, I don't believe for a minute that Ashley would say no. have to say what kemsley was saying about MA investing more sounded promising

Tomorrows Times

already said he wont take a job in england because of language barrier

the hilton? have you ever stayed in one? i think he could probably afford nicer tbh

did you notice the guy in the studio asked about what criteria the owners had set for a manager, and he responded by talking about who the fans want? not a clue man

haha, quality, this whole piece just re-inforces my belief that they know f***.all

Who would you be happy with? Well obviously someone like Lippi however i may be unrealistic i just dont see the point in sacking Sam and replacing him with people who are not better. depends how you define better, considering the sacking seems to be down to style of play

ohhhh, so you dont KNOW, you just think you know, thats ok then

what?

Not necessarily. Whether Redknapp or Hughes are considered of the 'blown socks off' standard depends on how highly they are rated by the board, whom at the moment have a very questionable level of football knowledge. nah sorry i'm not having that, if it turns out to be one of them he was lying Really, if Redknapp or Hughes are appointed, it means that the board thinks he was the best possible man for the job, and therefore given what must therefore be assumed to be limited football knowledge, Mort's socks blew off when he received the call touting whoever. Another absolutely correct observation, ignored by those who form a different "opinion" based on nothing other than seeing what they want to see. Well you are ignoring things as well, such as Oliver describing the agents client as being a "top manager", and also one who didnt have morts number. It may of been viable that Oliver may belive that Hughes and Redknapp are top managers, and they may of "knocked the boards socks off" but it isnt under any circumstances viable that the representatives of Hughes or Redknap wont have Morts number especially given the links between redknapp and ashley

starting to get the feeling that the press have been thrown a massive curveball somewhere SSN saying Redknapps the 'red hot favourite', saying the links between him and newcastle refuse to go away (because of you lot, aye) Chron saying Hughes with no real substance Biggest mover in betting is Keegan, haha, aye no-one knows what the f***'s going on haha, oliver "the people at sky sports know more than i do" - no shit

yup

SSN blatantly made up this british only thing, or someone mis-understood or something, i've not seen one quote to back it up

totally agree

His contact probably asked him to keep schtum. Either that or he just made it up. keep schtum on the telly when we DONT have a manager, but its alright to print in the paper when we DO?
