Harry Redknapp And The Tax Man

UK Sports BlogFootball

You’ve got to love Harry Redknapp, if there’s one manager in the Premier League that guarantees you an honest assessment of a game it’s honest Harry. If only he’d be so open about some of the other wheeler dealings in his footballing life then maybe Harry wouldn’t be up in front of the tax man.

UK Sports BlogFootball

I should qualify that by saying in any office or workplace that has blokes under the age of 20 working in them.
