Looks like its a similar situation to the Rafa rumours right at the beginning of the season. Been a flood of bets on Redknapp being next manager to go and bookies have slashed his odds. Would be a massive shame to Spurs a club I followed as a lad (until i realised the importance of following your local team). They have been brilliant under him so far and really looked a good prospect this year. Harry Redknapp baffles bookies as punters pile on Spurs boss to leave White Hart Lane | Mail Online

Saying that nothing surprices me in football anymore.

OK, now I am hearing that tomorrows papers are full of Headlines RE: Some very suspect behaviour in the transfer market and financial irregularities. There have always been rumours floating around Harry and I know for a fact that the Flying squad were looking into details of a premiership manager with over 1 million in an online betting account. His name came up in the Panorama Doco a few years back that instigated Big Sam Allardyce. No smoke without fire IMHO and I said as much back in the Rafa thread at the beginning of the Season.

Load of old tosh imo
I really like Redknapp, thing he's a proper character one of the few in management we have left. I loved the one when they were interviewing him after a game and his mobile rang and it was his wife and he said "She's checking I'm at football"

Only a matter of time IMO.
Anyone who bought Nugent for 6million and never played him must be either clueless or dodgy, and as much as I dislike 'Arry, he's not clueless.

I'm not knocking him, I really rate him too. Lets face it, we are not exactly off our faces on excellent English Managers at the moment so it would be a massive shame if he does bow out the game for a while.

Well I've just put £20 on Hart being sacked next @ 7/2, so I'd say their plan worked out nicely.

He must've filtered 10's of millions out of Portsmouth because there's absolutely no other reason how they can be in the state they are now.
Harry's well dodgy, I like him but he's definitely always on the make.

My load of old tosh comment was related to his response in the sun ad about "Badge kissing"

if it comes out that it is a betting scandal to drive out the odds on Hart i'd expect serious repercussions...like the banning of betting on managers jobs, of course it will be very hard to prove that someone wasn't just reacting to a rumor and it spread..
however you would have thought Pompey would be a lot better of given the exodus of talent they have had over the last year, so maybe something was going on with the books?
