Nice moment in the Pavilion this afternoon when Sky announced Austin's goal.

There was a big cheer followed by a chorus of 'Charlie, Charlie-Charlie...............'
 
Forget about Karl Henry. Redknapp gets blamed for everything.
That's because he was guilty of everything. This is hearsay, so hopefully not actionable by law, but I was told a story the other day by a bloke who had shared a box with Redknapp at Newmarket a few years ago. Shortly before his court case - Redknapp's expectations "I don't think I'm going to get away with it this time, lads".

Just as well he had Rosie to bail him out.....

'Loved dog to bits'

Speaking about the naming of his Monaco account, Mr Redknapp said he called the account Rosie after his pet bulldog because "I loved her to bits".

He told the court that he had to add his birth date to the name as there was another Monaco HSBC account called Rosie.

When prosecutor John Black QC suggested someone else might have had a dog by the same name, Redknapp said: "Or wife".

He added: "If she was as nice as Rosie they have got a good wife."

Mr Redknapp told the court he had not told his accountant about the account because "I had nothing to tell him, there was nothing in it".

'That's an insult'
Mr Redknapp told the court that the Rosie account was not a secret.

"I told all the boys at Portsmouth about it, I told Quest [the Premier League inquiry into bungs] about it, that's how secret it was.

"As far as I was concerned, it was the most unimportant thing in my life, that account."

He also said: "I've paid over £8m income tax.

"Why are we bothering over £10,000 or whatever I'm said to have saved in tax?"

At the end of his cross-examination Mr Redknapp replied to the accusation he had been "telling a pack of lies".

He said: "You think I put my hand on the bible and told lies? That's an insult."

Former Arsenal goalkeeper Bob Wilson was then called by the defence team.

He told jurors that Mr Redknapp was an "amazing guy" who has always helped with his charity work.

Mr Redknapp is on trial alongside his former employer at Portsmouth, the club's ex-chairman Mr Mandaric, 73.

Both deny cheating the public revenue.

The jury has been told it will retire to consider its verdicts on Tuesday.

The trial continues.
