Good morning.
The end of an era. The most successful manager in the history of history has been savagely hounded out of office by a vicious mob of know nothing armchair fans. The club is on the brink of disaster; confused and disheartened players are likely to leave. The achievement of three fantastic seasons glossed over by a hate campaign that quite frankly smacked of…
Yeah anyway 3-2-1 …and we’re back in the room.
The Careful What You Wish For™ brigade were cluttering up the Internet last night, patronising their little wet socks off with all the profound wisdom of a defective Magic 8 Ball.
Audere est facere is a phrase that wouldn’t have survived the close inspection of some modern day supporters if they tried to launch it now. Does anyone know what the latin for, ‘Let’s not be too hasty, now’ is?
“Harry has done a great job. But the success of a club can never be down to one individual, whether it be a player, director, manager or money.
It’s a combination of factors that all come together and, as ever, there will always be an element of luck.”
Daniel Levy
Words of wisdom from after the Werder Bremen game.
The truth of the matter is that we have incredible resources at the Club. A few of the best players in the league and a board that are without doubt a refreshing, alternative to the plethora of second hand car dealers, porn barons and assorted costermongers out there running other clubs.
What does the future hold? Who knows, but what is ‘for sure’ is that the next man will be under illusions that we’re looking for a manager and a tactician.
We don’t need a rent a quote machine or self publicist. We don’t need someone so bloody gormless they think Champions League football is overrated. We don’t need someone who’s paid millions of pounds, I said millions of pounds to do a job but distracted from doing it by an incoming call from talkSPORT.
We deserved better and better is what we’ll strive for.
BIOYC!
Wow, looking forward to the Moyes/Martinezesque mid-table football. Definately a up from Harry (best since Bill Nic) Redknapp! What will you whine about now Mr Hotspur? Relegation battles? Distant memories of success?
Statistically he was better then Bill Nicholson. But Bill won trophies. A profound difference.
so did Ramos! Let’s give him a call.
I refer to my above post Mr Superlid. What would you have done if HR had jumped at the England job? Doffed your cap and respectfully ask that the gates be shut forever in memoriam? Grow up. The club is bigger than anyone.
A stench has left WHL. Thank fuck for that.
It is a strange fact that the vast majority of people who like Harry Redknapp have never had him manage their club and the vast majority which do not like him have.
Sums it up perfectly…
Don’t worry all Harry lovers, he’ll be ok. He’s getting a £3m pay off, which after tax is, well £3m.
Just hope the selection process isn’t drawn out…
A last second ‘before the start of the season’ job!!
Please no!!
Torn, gotta thank Harry for turning things around on arrival, and for the trips to San Siro and Bernebeu. But, he never felt like he loved us…it was always whats best for Harry and I don’t recall a single soundbite in which he shouldered the blame for anything. In many aspects he lacked professionalism and I expect more. He fell at the final hurdle last season and did not take the opportunity when the club backed him wholeheartedly with a new contract. He did well but I hope we can now push on with a new man who has a real hunger to build a dynasty here.
I want a spurs dynasty.
Love the club
Indeed we all do, Squire!
The king is dead, Long live the King (as Harry once said!)
Here here that man
Thank you. Balance. Well written that chap.
Much obliged sir, I can’t hate the man, he’s done a lot for us, I just hope we make the right decision so that we don’t look back on this with a bitter taste.
