Leading on nicely from yesterday's blog, there really is nothing Harry Redknapp won't do for a bit of publicity. If he's not openly tapping up other teams' players in the press, he's on the phone to Sky Sports News or jabbering away on TalkSport. Standing in the choir on the Venables-singing advert for The Sun was a low point. Today's effort in the Sun eclipses all others though. I'm still unsure as to whether this is a joke or not. It's so ridiculous that even The Sun isn’t running it on its own website.
The best bits are:
"Donkeys, horses, foxes and birds - I'm passionate about caring for them in the right way." Foxes? Really?
"[Redknapp] is known as the Birdman of White Hart Lane by players because he throws bread to birds during training sessions." That's not true.
Sadly, they didn’t run the quote where he says: "It's a great donkey and any manager would want him. I'm no different. But he's someone else's donkey. If he became available then of course I'd be interested. Anyone would." [See yesterday's blog].
On a serious note, would you ever see Arsene Wenger do a piece like this? No. Class is the difference.
