Why would you put £190k into an account in Monaco unless you wanted to hide it?
I suspect he may be stuffed on this one.
Aye, Harry Redknapp not looking too good either 🙄
😳
For the sake of English football I would like to state that I lent him the money and asked him to put it there.
Therefore his reputation is spotless and can be next England manager and have a knighthood while he's at it.
nothing would give me greater pleasure than seeing that little toad go to prison for a few months
He's stuffed for sure. Hopefully anyway.
(it's Redknapp I think 🙂 )
he's obiously good at his job but he seems a slimey little toad to me.
Four years, I reckon.
I think the dog should be able to spend that money how it wishes, preferably on one humongous bone!
With the level of deceit shown I think he should have a knighthood 😀
He didn't commit the fundamental schoolboy error of forgetting his 'political contributions' did he? The fool!
Prison?...no chance
England manager?....no chance
I hope you're right on both accounts Lazybike.
The only man able to unite Portsmouth and Southampton fans.
Odious little crook.
Its a shame he wasn't made England manager 10 years ago.
He's a good football manager, but needs to be kept away from money like an alky with vodka.
Every club he's been to has improved their football results and then gone into financial meltdown. He usually bails just before the sh1t hits the fan.
Bournemouth, West Ham, Portsmouth (twice), southampton all promoted then administraion within 2 years of him leaving. If I was a Tottenham fan, I'd be bricking it.
It's to late for him now with England. He's done the crime, now do the time.
What exactly is the punishment for tax evasion?
I can't see this diamond geezer going down, but it would be good to see a short period in the nick if he is as guilty a scroat as it seems.
As a Spurs fan I'm hoping for this scandal to be just enough to stop him getting the England job, but also not quite enough for him to go to prison.
Going the way of Lester Pigott, i reckons.
You're forgetting Glenn Hoddle, Binners... a good religious man.
loum hits the nail on the head regarding his managerial credentials.
Hmm beating someone up in a pub.......slap on the wrist
drug dealing............slap on the wrist
Rioting (making govt and state look bad)..................prison
diddling HMRC out of money and not doing it very well.........prison.
TBF he hasn't been allowed anywhere near the finances at Spurs.. Daniel Levy is one of the most financially astute chairmen around, Harry picks the players he wants, Levy deals with the finance.. otherwise we'd soon end up with reserve team players on 100k+ a week.
A normal person doing this will expect porridge time. I imagine he'll get off with a fine.
im liking the fact that hes being done for not paying tax on bungs
as the FA previously had a wide ranging and in depth review into bungs and found that english football had a clean bill of health (apart from the club whos manager first voiced the accusations of bungs)
football is rotten at every level imho
football is rotten at every level imho
Thing is the football fans view football as a sport but the FIFA, Owners, Managers and Agents view it as a business.
I love it when hora comes in with his deep reading of topics. Always gives me a new perspective. 🙂
Well you're all baying from the terraces with this seasons kit to 'support your team' and the name of the business down your forearm.....and Ken Bates is stood there laughing making a nice mint out of the business'.... 😆
I hope he never gets anywhere near the England job.
When did Pompy fold again?

They're just about to be wound up as I type.
The HMRC winding-up hearing is due to be heard on February the 20th...
Broken Dreams by Tom Bower is worth a read. The whole chapter devoted to Redknapp sums up why I would like to see him banged up.
A friend of mine wrote a lovely screenplay based on Redknapp's time at West Ham - All In The Game which starred Ray Winstone.
The bloke is very crooked, and ll this is just the tip of the iceberg. He's lucky he has so many media friends otherwise lots more would have been reported IMO.
football fans view football as a sport
I thought football fans viewed football as actually being about life and death, considering the volume of guff that's spouted about football in this country, and grown men crying when 'their' team loses.
Redknapp wasn't the only villan at Pompey. I doubt if the truth will ever be able to be untangled.
Was only £190k put it into this acount or was was it just the remnants of money put into the account- i.e. multiple payments?
Even if its true that made disastrous investments in Monaco what does that matter to the HMRC? They don't award point or sympathy to how you spend your money, only to how you earn it.
It's hardly surprising. From what I saw, the prosecution's evidence consisted of going "you're lying Harry, aren't you?"
so the money does belong to the dog?
thats why they call him Lucky Harry
Money talks, money walks!
It's hardly surprising. From what I saw, the prosecution's evidence consisted of going "you're lying Harry, aren't you?"
I thought it was all about which legal team could link to the more credible Wikipedia page to support thre argument. The prosecution should have repeadet the question a few more times maybe the judge didn't hear the first few toimes.
I think wheeling out a conversation with a NotW journalist as evidence wasn't the best prosecution tactic.
Is it right that the main point of the trial concerned un-declared income in the form of a bung (from the sale of Crouch)? Ridiculous really - like asking a mugger to fill in a tax return.
Woohoooooooooo! He's got the green light to replace Postman Pat when the FA sack him next week 😀
I did find it quite amusing that the main prosecution evidence came from such a massively credible source as a News of the World journalist.
So... how much tax is he meant to have avoided? And how much has this whole farce cost the taxpayer?
hmmmmmmmmm,
oh well at least he'll be able to take the england job now.
What I could not understand is why he would go to such lengths to try and avoid tax on less than £200k.
I mean, he must be rather wealthy and be on a vast salary, so what is the point of avoiding tax on (for him) such a small amount.
are you referring to Sir Harry, England Manager?
Can he be prosecuted for not wearing a seatbelt?
