Crossed my mind...no one took me seriously though

It has been speculated as to what Toshack was up to in between Wales games

I understand that Toshack slopes off back to Spain...

I see that Redknapp has quit Portsmouth...

BBC link

That's a real shame for them, he's done an awful lot for that club.

Wee Gordie and Redknapp both out of work? There is no justice in the world

.

Now I must try and find the clip of him being interviewed during a training session...

EDIT: found it

After all, Portsmouth's chance of finding a manager better than Harry must be... er...

Oh well, I guess I shouldn't laugh, we fired Bobby Robson.

Great news! All I want for Christmas is Redknap for Wolves.

What are the chances?

I think the latest rumours have him buying Bournemouth...

Haha, cheers aureole. I've not seen that before.

"No wonder he's in the fucking reserves". Class.

But surely Portsmouth will simply appoint a grumpy eastern European guy called something like Georgi Krgzakvhnorov...

I'm a Rangers man, but fair play to Celtic. I've just watched them take a point in the Nou Camp (final score 1-1), the very place Barcelona thumped Real Madrid 3-0 at the weekend and have won every single game there all season up till tonight.

(Mind you, Celtic did put them out of the Uefa Cup last season as well. The bastards!)

That was revenge for the Fulham match. We could have been 4-1 down in the first half easy. I've never been so nervous 2-0 up with 15 minutes to go, it could all have gone pear-shaped very quickly. Hard to say that anyone played particularly badly though, it just wasn't great teamwork in the first half, and we should have slowed it down a lot after the second goal.

Ah well, I didn't actually see it. Probably just as well, I know what we're like, and it's more satisfying to just see a 4-0 result once a game has finished!
