Portsmouth Deny Redknapp Facing Sack
February 14th, 2006 by Alan HylandsOnly two months after returning to Portsmouth from South Coast neighbours Southampton, Harry Redknapp is already facing unsettling rumours about his position as club manager.
Having won only two league games since his return and with Portsmouth sitting in a precarious position eight points behind 17th placed West Bromwich Albion, word had been circulating that new co-owner Alexandre Gaydamak had given the order for Redknapp to be sacked.
Portsmouth have moved quickly to deny the rumour however with a club spokesperson saying: “The club and Alexandre categorically refute the rumours from this report…Harry Redknapp has the backing of everyone at the club and will continue to do so.”

Get rid of Redknapp and Milan NOW. Milan should never have re employed Harry for a second time. Milan has lost the plot. Sasha G may want to build a new ground but he needs a good team in the top flight to do it. Win the Championship next year and then we will kick on.

I have to agree it was a ridiculous decision to re-employ Redknapp after his defection to Southampton which has left the man with no credibility at all. Saying that, Milan never should have brought in a Director of Football over his and Jim Smith’s heads in the first place and if he hadn’t then maybe these last two years of losing their grip on their Premiership status mightn’t have happened.

Please don’t sack him. Because if Pompey go down, then he has to be at the helm!
Why should he be given the option to cut loose and get away scott free?
