Exactly, which is why I thought your initial post was perplexing to say the least.

There was a bit of anti, 'took his eye off the ball' etc. but my point was that you can never trust Harry ITK because opinion clouds it. And my point still stands re the shit that's written about him. Just because it's been a bit quiet lately, doesn't mean it's been forgotten about.

SP, i don't know if it's possible, but if it is, look at the ITK over the last 3 years involving Harry and tell me most of it hasn't got an agenda. There are those with ITK in the Harry camp and those in the Levy camp. The Harry camp will say he wants Messi etc but Levy won't pay, the Levy camp will say Harry talks too much, wants old players etc, which is not in Levy's plans for the club. The fact is, no-one knows if there is a genuinely neutral ITK when it comes to giving info regarding Harry. That's why I find if difficult to believe anything about either of them via ITK. They can't all be right can they?

I'd answer the other points you raised but I'll stick to the ITK references for now, don't wanna take the thread even more off topic.

I always ignore them, as they even one another out, and anyone with an ounce of understanding knows that there aren't Levy signings and Redknapp signings as some folk seem to portray.

I always point out that 'Arry hasn't just signed old players, the first two arrivals were the two Kyles , and that the squad needed a leaven of experience.

But, TBH, you do seem to have morphed into an ultra Redknapp loyalist (like Paolo :eek:) over the last couple of months.

Wow, 250,000 per week is insane, surely the whole point of the ffp was to stamp that shit out?

And you've done a complete u-turn and don't seem to accept the loyalists ;)

Read through my posts. I've criticised when necessary, again I'll repeat my gripe is with the ungratefuls. I never criticise posters who complain about tactics or rotation etc, I complain about the posters that appear to have no idea what our last 20 years have been about, and there's a lot of them. I've used the word 'perspective' about a million times.

Anyway, goat, interesting stuff. Holland eh?

I'm safe in the knowledge that my unequivocal support and loyalty is to the Club at the end of the day, not to Harry Redknapp. He's open to criticism and praise, and to be honest he merits both of late. If you don't think so that's fine, but all this ramming down the throat that its all a load of bollox gets a little tiring.

SP, this is the sort of post I'd criticise. Made his bed with the FA? Why? By not ruling himself out of the most coveted job an English manager could wish for? How had he shown his true colours? Because someone who knows someone said he hasn't been on the training pitch as much since Capello was sacked?

Etc.

Re the latest ITK, Ryan said he's def in UAE but this one says he's home. I believe both...!

I suppose the issue here, if the ITK is to be believed, is one of PR.

Levy sacks Redknapp: '2 points from 8 games, 2 top four finishes, I didn't deserve it' DL looks ruthless and invokes arguably a stronger negative reaction than the Jol sacking.

Redknapp leaves to join another club: 'Tottenham defended you through court case, turned your back on us' some shine is taken off the Redknapp image.

It looks as if an amicable parting of the ways would suit both parties, if that is possible...

I just want self-preservation, man, no matter who I have to stab in the back :sneaky:

Seriously, as I have stated several times, I am not anti-Redknapp, and I would have been in favour of him taking us into the CL as he took us to fourth and so earned it.

But anyone who couldn't see, by the QPR debacle, that we were in freefall, and the most likely (if not the only) cause was England-Gate, is in denial - and that includes the Redknapp-Loyalists.

Funny, Bomber, I never had you down as a man of principle :eek: I shall now forever see you as William, in Enter the Dragon, refusing to get involved in Mr Han's heroin operation ;)

Yeah, but you can't fulminate against the afflicted ;)

I noticed that The Goat said we are still talking to others in Holland. Was it confirmed that the 'others' are actually Leandro nd Remy?

Good point.
Does anyone get the impression that Rafa is spreading the Word over in the Nudderlands?

10 posts since The Goat/JJ/A&C posted - and only 3 on ITK.

COYS have their own thread on what the Goat just said and it's already up to 15 comments.

I'm not sure where I'm going with this.

Redknapp does seem to have split personality at times you know!
