Redknapp rues lost England chance

Harry Redknapp says his arrest on Wednesday as part of an investigation into alleged corruption has ended his chance of becoming England manager. The Portsmouth boss was one of five men arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting and has since protested his innocence.

He told BBC Radio Solent: "I'm not saying I would have got the job. But through no fault of my own, all this rubbish and disgusting treatment I've had has changed it all really."

Redknapp has guided Portsmouth to seventh place in the Premier League, currently the highest position of all English managers in the top-flight. And the 60-year-old had said that no English club manager would reject the chance to take the England job should it be offered to them. But he has now insisted that although he was flattered by links to the post, he was not actively putting himself in the frame.

He added: "I'm not saying I was chasing the job, I love the job I do here, so it wasn't a case of me wanting to leave here. But it was nice that people were talking about how well I'd done and how good I am at my job."

I can still see them giving him the job.

I quite like Redknapp. His teams play entertaining stuff and who would have thought that Pompey would be capable of a top half position in the Premiership?




Barwick to scour the world for potential England boss.


Mourinho can't be that hard to find...?

If he wasn't in football, you just know he'd be a second hand car dealer........& a dodgy one at that.

I hate pompey with an absolute passion, worse than Palace . Redknapp however is still a character who you cant help but like.

Makes the Pompey fans look mugs with all their anti harry banners when he came back, all the twats on meridian saying they will never support him etc .......f king skate scum. Hate them !

He's on holiday backpacking for 6 months. And he's wearing a fake moustache.

Mourinho would be mad to take the England job. He won't have millions to spend on the best players from around the world...he'll be stuck with the same group of players that let down McClaren (the first goal Croatia scored was hardly McClaren's fault!)...and team wise the best players are already playing. Tactically he could make a difference but he could end up being reviled if we don't win anything.

It's a poisoned chalice. Having said that, I'd love to see him as England manager!

Harry Redknapp is more bent than Christopher Biggins !(allegedly).

If that shifty looking Twat got the job the FA would end up having as much egg on their face as the Labour Party.

 

[DJ Leon]

Would have made a good England manager if you ask me.

the first goal Croatia scored was hardly McClaren's fault!

Yes, it was. The guy shouldn't have been in goal.

My thoughts exactly. You don't stick a learner driver in an F1 car!! Why stick a goalie in a crunch game when it's his competitve debut! Totally McLaren's fault.
