harry again

Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp believes he can win the Premier League during his tenure - and has criticised outspoken fans who believe the club should be doing better this season.

Hopes of a first league title since 1961 have faded this term with Spurs now 14 points behind Manchester United following Saturday's goalless draw at home to relegation threatened West Ham United.

But Redknapp believes his team will continue to improve and could challenge the status quo.

He said: "I think we have got a title in us at this club. But I don't think about finishing in the top four too much, really. "I don't go to sleep worrying about it, thinking 'I've got to get in the Champions League because Tottenham are always in it every year!' Yeah, Tottenham always used to finish above Man United, Chelsea and Liverpool ... they get in every year. I have come here and f***ed up their team!

"If we finish fifth and reach the Champions League quarter-finals ... what can you do? I will not lose any sleep over it.

"Whether other people who don't know football are satisfied, I don't know. Are we really supposed to finish above Man City, after the money they have spent? And Chelsea, ars*nal, Man United...? I think I can win the title with Tottenham but I can't put a time-frame on it."

thats why lots of spurs fans havent taken to him. they hardly sing hes name at games.

keeps having digs at our club. jol never used to keep slaggin of our fans. harry was the one building us up sayin we can win the league then a few bad results later he sayins we should be happy with 5th.

I have said this about Harry .He has know loyalty with any club .This job is a stepping stone .He wants the England job or even one of the so called bigger clubs.
I get nervous and sleepless before every game and cant believe our manager does not.This is my biggest reason for my feelings towards Harry .I want a manager who is going to love this club .I want a manager lives and breaths this club as the fans do

Lought ! i really cant see that as having a go at tottenham, its being realistic and he is simply trying to say it the way it is.

No team has a sublime right to cl football, there will be years when the goons, chelsea and even man utd will slip up and miss out.

Its been refreshing this year, gareth bales performances in the cl gave me a lot of pleasure, and we are still in it.

Only one criticism of harry i have this term is the failure to procure a free scoring front player, it was so very obvious, but i think defoe has not delivered and that harry put a lot of faith in his goal scoring abilities.

Crouch..well even harry says he has other uses and pav just doesnt do it for harry, but pav has had his chances, he as well as all spurs players have to make it impossible for harry to drop.

pav outscored defoe in 2010 and so far this season

so why dont the spurs fans sing songs about harry.
why have we got the worst points from the teams at the bottom.

our league form this season has been really poor.

I was waiting for the april first gotcha from lought ion ! he must be serious then....

i am being serious though. why dont fans that go to spurs home games sing harrys name like they did with jol.

when we win harry takes the credit yet when we lose he blames other things.

i just dont like harry sarcastic coments about my club.

Lought I've just spent the last 2hrs trying to make up a song about 'arry and to be honest not much rhymes with Redknapp. Or 'arry come to that . . . . . . . .

im just starting a debate about harry. on the vitalspurs forum there dont seem to be much love for harry.

im not sayin hes doing a really bad job i just dont like the way hes always stuff like 2 points from 8 and likes spurs always finish above liverpool and man c.

i dont care how much man c spent we still got the better team and better strengh in deph and expect us to finnish above them.

Wots up Lought ? Fed up with knocking the players so time for the manager ? Sorry mate but these are good times at Spurs, quarter finals of the C/L and fifth in the leauge with all chance of top 4 before seasons end. . . . . .


(you start a thread knocking him yet then post the following)[u]im not sayin hes doing a really bad job i just dont like the way hes always stuff like 2 points from 8 and likes spurs always finish above liverpool and man c.

i dont care how much man c spent we still got the better team and better strengh in deph and expect us to finnish above them.[/u] (your words Lought)

WTF more do you want mate ? Citeh had spent loads last season and we done 'em but it just seems that that dosen't hold anything for you anymore . . . . . .

i agree with lought on this one, sometimes harry is a bit on the defensive if anyone slightly has the temerity to question him on anything spurs that he dont want to hear, cmon harry people are allowed to criticise sometimes if they see flaws in your management strategy and decisions, thats the price of being a media darling it aint always gonna be praising you. cheap P*ss take answers make you sound big headed and cant accept any critisism which is easy i suppose when your financially secure and can walk at any time.i love what you have done for our club but nobody is above critisism at times. you cant take all the plaudits when going well but not take the flak at some point.

its like hes nocking spurs all the time. he didnt say hes club he said there club. just rememember harry you aint done much apart from manange some small clubs and won 1 fa cup.

what if we lose to real madrid then liverpool overtake us and we finish 6th.

Then take a team on the cusp of relegation and put them in the Championd League in less than 2 years.

Funny how you missed that stat Lought. Then again, it's not really.


what if we lose to real madrid then liverpool overtake us and we finish 6th.

What if we beat Real, then beat Barca, then overtake Chelsea and Citeh to finish 3rd?

Only an idiot bases his assessment of ability on what if's Lought, and I don't think you're an idiot.


You seem Hell bent on proving me wrong though.


BTW, can you tell me what songs were sung about Bill Nicholson when he managed Spurs?

its like hes nocking spurs all the time

But so do you, players and management, does that mean your not really a supporter of Spurs?

i been supporting spurs all my life. harry a west ham fan. a team we taken 1 point of this season

i bet most of you hated harry before he came to spurs

so you was a big fan of harry when he was at portstmouth. i rekon most of you wernt harry fans untill he came here.

harry says the wigan game is more inportant but you can tell thats lies and hes keeping players back for tuesday.

Lought, there are no easy games, Chelsea were lucky against Stoke, yet we beat them 2-1 at theirs, Arsenal drew at home to 10 man Blackburn, yet we beat them home and away, you really have a short memory.

Easy !!

To the tune of " you are my sunshine my only sunshine !!


Ole arry rednapp he talks a lotta crap he keeps us guessing all of the time , and no matter how hard we try to tell him when it comes to sub theres no changing his mind


that was to to easy

Harry can turn round and say he think's he can bring the Premiership title to Tottenham in his reign, but are certain player's who I believe are the backbone of this club going to hang around long enough for him to achieve this, imo I think not, and he certainly will not with these result's against the team's we should be beating in order to win the title. Anyway, will Harry himself be here long enough to achieve his goal in which case if he is not I suppose he will turn around and say, had I stayed at the club I think we would have won the title.
