Bit harsh isn't it? Not Redknapp's fault he gets a camera shoved under his nose by Sky Sports every day is it?

Not a fan of Mandaric but he took Pompey from nowhere to a reasonably secure Premiership spot.

It would suprise me if Harry hadn't been on the take at some point over the last few years - I seem to recall an agent gave him a racehorse to sweeten a deal but he said it couldn't be seen as a bung because the horse turned out to be ****.

I'll eat my hat if these are the only people in the game with dubious moral values when it comes to backhanders - they'll be made scapegoats though to warn others.

Portsmouth have confirmed that manager Harry Redknapp is one of the five men arrested by police investigating corruption in football.

The Pompey boss was held in custody along with Leicester chairman Milan Mandaric, Pompey chief executive Peter Storrie, Rangers midfielder Amdy Faye and agent Willie McKay in pre-dawn raids.

The raids were part of the force's economic crime unit's investigation into alleged bungs in the game.

Last year the FA brought in former Metropolitan Police commissioner Lord Stevens and his company, Quest, to carry out a separate inquiry into suspect transfers.

A City of London Police spokeswoman said: "Five men have been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting as part of an ongoing investigation into football corruption."

A 61-year-old man was held in May on suspicion of money laundering and a 28-year-old - widely rumoured to be Tottenham defender Pascal Chimbonda - was questioned in September.

Police also searched Newcastle, Portsmouth and Rangers as well as two homes during a series of raids in July.

On Wednesday, a spokesman for Portsmouth confirmed that Redknapp and Storrie had "been asked to help police with their inquiries concerning a matter dating back to 2003".

"This was prior to the new owner taking control of the club at the beginning of 2006," he said. "The club is fully supportive of Peter and Harry who are co-operating fully with City of London Police in this ongoing inquiry.

"Both are playing major roles in the continued success of Portsmouth Football Club
