The club can can confirm @HJRedknapp is an official account for R's boss Harry Redknapp. His account is managed by his dog. 33 minutes ago Just left the training ground, lads worked really hard today! Spirit is good! M'Bia back in training, should be fit for Saturday! https://twitter.com/HJRedknapp
I'm not so sure about that. It's actually a quote taken straight from the official QPR twitter feed.... Apart from the bit about the dog, that is.
Maybe he talks to them on the phone and say what to write. I doubt they can make things up about trainnings and Mbia's recovery. They must be in touch
Ghost written of course. He was on a plane back from the Toon - Wigan game this morning - couple of my mates were on it with him, had a chat when checking in. When told that their friend was an Rs fan (they were trying to get me on the phone to talk to him) H's response - 'don't think I've ever met one of them'; did ok against Sunderland (mate is a Mackem ST holder) 'that's not difficult'; when offered good luck 'I'm going to need it with this lot'. Said he was very good humoured and open to chat.
You can if you like, there are some on here that can't abide having a good word said about the man....
No problem mate, just wondering! My start point with Arry was not great, but there is nothing in it for me for him to do anything but a stunning job for us, and I'm certainly not going to whine on ad nauseum about him, everyone who is interested knows my initial reservations. My 'reportage' above may have come across in the wrong way - my mates were really impressed with his openness and willingness to have a laugh - and he was obviously playing for the crowd, a Mackem and a Preston North Ender exiled to Geordie land.
Stan doesn't like the loveable rogue types or "Geezers" as they are known. The Del Boys of this World. I think Harry is one of them. A bit of a chancer that probably left school the first chance he got. I happen to like blokes like that, by and large. As long as they don't get into Government. See the collapse of the Irish economy
You're jumping to a lot of conclusions this evening mate. I just think Arry is overrated. Not wildly impressed by the 'dodginess', but then again I loved Tel, who was off the scale wheeler dealer. My old man was similar, lots of 'meetings' in smoke filled Hammersmith boozers, turning up at home with a set of golf clubs or a bit of furniture. He was an acquaintance, rather than friend, of Jim Gregory who made his cash in used car dealing. I reckon a lot of these blokes who grew up during and after the war had a flexible attitude to supply and demand and certainly didn't have a problem playing in the black economy. Good luck to them.
I obviously have been. I did take your initial comments, however, to be more against Redknapp's dodgyness and old school methods rather than his actual record. I should have remembered that you don't like O'Neill either and he's very much the prim and proper Gentleman. Apologies for that mate.
