Your family member or Houlliers' family member?
This is quite critical.
I certainly believe Mort ahead of Redknapp. I believe Redknapp wanted the job as long as he could continue to live down south (because his wife wouldn't let them move) and we weren't having it and so he then came out and said he turned it down. I think that would have come up pretty early and so I doubt we offered him the job.
My family member, saw them face-to-face.
It doesn't mean we will get Houllier, but when all the crack on Thursday and Friday was that Redknapp was gonna be offered the job, it shows its bullshit made up by SSN/press.
I guess Mort was going to approach Pompey to talk to Redknapp (just like he was talking to Houllier). Doesnt mean he was offered the job at all.
interesting makes you wonder who else he has had a meeting with
