Funny little Redknapp story
From his Sun column: :g

Over the years I have earned a reputation as a ‘wheeler-dealer’ in the transfer market.

Advertisement

But as well as some great signings, I have missed a few too. At Bournemouth I signed Carl Richards for £10,000 from Enfield.

For the first three months he was rubbish. One day he said his mate fancied a trial.

I said ‘is he as good as you?’. ‘No gaffer’. I said I wouldn’t bother.

When we played at Crystal Palace, Carl said his mate was playing up front. I said: “That’s good, he won’t be a threat.”

Twenty minutes into the game I realised Ian Wright was better than Carl had let on.

Carl turned out to be a good pro and I sold him 18 months later for £80,000.

Sounds like a load of bullshit to me. Richards joined Bournemouth in 1986 whereas Wright joined Palace in 1985. Additionally, we didn't play Bournemouth until 87/88, and Wright was a reasonably well known player by then.

Jamie Redknapp was good value when Liverpool played us at home - in front of the Holmesdale Liverpool came up for a corner and Jamie got best part of 10,000 singing "does she take it up the arse" (referring to Croydon girl, Louise of course) - instead of getting the hump he just turned to us and gave us the thumbs up and a big wink - fair play, big round of applause and people muttering 'bastard' under their breaths.

Unlike Beckham who made a "going down" gesture. Yet he's the one who's girlfriend wanks pigs on national TV.

He probably wasn't sure what to say, as Victoria doesn't seem to have an arse at all.

As for the pigwanker, I think we needn't have even asked the question in the first place.
