    Then we are on about the same group :emoticon-0126-nerd: , if it was nowadays with...Facebook/ Twitter etc they would all have been caught for sure.


    Not the team who we are on about, but the case that made the papers was Rio who was snorting with a lady of the night, got caught and reported and then gave the runaround with tests with delay tactics and received a 9 month ban for it.

    Has Clyne gone to Bournemouth?

    Isn’t that the club where Redknapp jnr met his wife? I heard an interesting story about that first encounter.

    Each got a window; Zola was there from December - April, then Harry took over from April - September. In his short time at Birmingham, Harry brought more players in (13) than he managed matches (10).

    Also, in their 2017-18 accounts, they spent £12.1m on transfers...and £4.2m on signing-on and agent fees. That's peak Redknapp. The man loves nothing more than an expensive free transfer.

    Gory details in this thread:



    They were paying more than £2 in wages for every £1 in revenue, which is extraordinary. No other club exceeded 1.5:1. Maguire estimates that they're failing FFP by £11m or thereabouts, which takes serious effort and would be rather difficult to reverse; not only have they failed FFP over the preceding three seasons, because the losses are so heavily stacked in the final one of the three-year period, it's going to be damned near impossible for them to avoid failing FFP in the next two seasons, as well.

    They also Sacked Gary Rowlett when they were 6th or 7th in the league! Crazy.
