Interesting quote's from Harry

[beats1]

Don't believe the not reading the contract bit, even 'Arry isn't that simple.

The last paragraph wouldn't impress me as a QPR fan, openly contemplating what job he is going for as his final pay day. Plus, any prospective employers are hardly going to be impressed, he's basically saying he would take it for the weather and the money. Yes I know that's what 99.9% of them go there for, but are they so open about it?

Agree, he didnt think the Capello would of left early tbh and he and us paid for it

 

[Mullers]

Whys that?

He's been an international manager a couple of times already, no skeletons, better tactician. He's highly thought of in the game, Inter hired him as their director of football.

 

[Monkey boy]

He could always have just walked away? Thus saving us the pay off we had to give him and thus saving the FA the compo fee.

What a turd of a man, always somebody else's fault.

Will forever be thankful for what he brought us but after the way he behaved last year will always be remembered as a turd. My opinion of course.

 

[Shadydan]

My hate/love has nothing to do with it pal, the FA were never going to offer him the job( to much baggage and the last time they appointed a messiah in KK they were shown up) now you may not want to believe that but its true.

Agree with this, I don't think Harry ever had a chance of getting the job, not that it didn't stop the press, fans,commentators, pundits and every an and his dog continuously touting him for the England manager position.

The contract may have been a number of factors as to why they didn't want to hire him but I'd say that it was more to do with the fact that they didn't want him in the place, besides a multi million pound contract like that, that's why you hire agents and contract solicitors to read and negotiate, I don't but that for a minute.

Haha

He has been international manager a couple of time and done relatively well but he isnt a good tactician. He sets up his team defensively very well, before england anyway.

As for highly thought of in the game, he isnt. People like him because he is a very nice person and well thought but dont rate him highly. Inter fans hated him tbh but he has a brilliant relationship with Moratti, which was why he was hired as a DOF. He is a joke in Italy, at a press conference in Italy they laughed him off when he was hired as manager as Udinese after he told them to fuck off, apparently. They laughed at England when he was hired as our manager.

He made alot of mistakes at Inter including a high profile one with a young LB telling the president, he will never be good enough to play in Europe as a defender and they should try to sell him ASAP, he then became the best LB in his Era only second to Maldini who was a CB at that point.

I disagree, the baggage had been cleared, Im not a big harry fan and wanted him to be sacked last season, as I thought we could do better but at the time he was the only decent english manager and still is.

When Roy gets sacked Harry will be the only candidate if they want to go the english route

That is up to you if you do not believe it but as i say its true.

 

[OmarsComing]

Thanks for the good times Harry

Now shut up and go and shag Rosie

 

[leffe186]

Seriously? A contract worth multiple millions of pounds and neither you nor your agent/representative bother to read the entire contract properly?

Nobody to blame but yourself, Harry.

It's fantastic that this comes out just a couple of days after this article:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2013/mar/30/harry-redknapp-paul-gascoigne

"Redknapp tells one story, going back to when he was managing West Ham, about Slaven Bilic having a clause in his contract that allowed him to leave for £2.5m. Bilic came to see Redknapp one day to say he was fed up playing for a struggling team, at a club that had no money for new players, and that he had heard that Spurs wanted to pay the release fee. His information was correct and it was then Redknapp told him to check the small print. The clause had been carefully worded so it was only applicable if West Ham agreed to it. In other words, it was worthless if West Ham did not want to sell. "Bilic is a fully qualified lawyer and must have thought his contract was watertight," Redknapp recalls. "But I went to the University of the Street in Stepney and I had done him up like a kipper."

Gotcha. As if you didn't know full well what your contract meant. You're a bullshitter Harry, and you'll always be a bullshitter. I'm very grateful for the job you did, but I'm very grateful you no longer have it. I just hope and pray that we get into the CL this year, so we never have to hear any more of this guff.

 

[Spurger King]

Two things I got from that article:

Harry really can't have been been too surprised at the contract terms, seeing as we paid Portsmouth something like £5m to break his contract there.

Nice to hear about Levy taking the coaching staff out for a meal. I suspected he wasn't a distanced figure, but it's nice to get some confirmation about that.

 

[beats1]

That is up to you if you do not believe it but as i say its true.

Firstly that statement has alot of issues, because its not like saying agree to disagree, you are saying if you dont want to believe, thats fair enough but I'M RIGHT! yet neither of us have any basis to say it its fact. You saying im basing my opinion on media reports yet you seem to be doing the same but from a different section.

As for he was never a candidate, we are lucky to have a source on SC that is very close to Harry and he at time iirc said Harry and England did hold informal talks. I think harry didnt get the job because of the buyout fee, Brooking and the hassle but I think the contract did play a major factor as alot of people were angry at Capellos wages and there was a inquiry iirc at the time for who gave him a extension.

Exactly harry cant have any complaints as he signed the contract but imo he is right that it played a factor as to why he didnt become manager

 

[ryantegan]

The FA certainly gave Harry the impression that he was the wanted one. There was a point in time that he was being told that he was to be the next England manager and it wasn't from the media.

However, who really gives a flying fuck?

The only people thriving of his every word are the same ones that sigh and groan and whingy and moan on the terraces week in week out pissing the rest of us off. The same ones who aren't satisfied unless something is going so wrong that we can be the perennial over expectant suffering fools.

Man the fuck up and move on. Because THFC certainly has

 

[Sum Monsterism]

I'm equally annoyed - I was spending most of my time typing on here when Roy got the England gig... That was my time, really, if I was going to get it. Last year, there were a lot of things that went against me surrounding my newly started membership on SC.

People will always deny that is the reason, the FA couldn’t say that and I won’t say, but it didn’t help me.

 

[kendoddsdadsdogsdead]

As usual blaming something else for his own faults, he was never going to get the England job and despite the FA saying that Roy was the only choice he spouts his usual bullshit.

[punky]

It was s bit cryptic about Levy's speech about Harry being embarassing. Does it mean Levy was gushing him or slagging him off?

Agree, I love the way AVB represents the club, respects the fans. Not missing any of Harry's bullshit at all.

As i have said you believe what you want too, it was never going to happen.

reads to me like it was a nice speech... DL couldn't have helped being pleased with what H did for us surely.

it was an exciting time that included free flowing football and our highest PL finish - I for one had a rip roaring time.

I don't get the hate.

Only my perception maybe but as I read it it seemed pretty obvious that Levy had been praising him and speaking highly of him (excessivly to the point of causing Harry embarrassment) hence why he was then shocked to be sacked shortly after

I assume had Levy been slagging him off getting the sack would have been more expected?
