Harry Redknapp trial

No that was 1.

Okay all humour Kenneth with a reply

I may be wrong here, but didn't Redknapp basically ADMIT evading tax during the case?

And I don't like him.

Dunno, haven't really followed it. Thanks for the explanation.

****in Knew it! NOT guilty..

If someone like Rafa hafd gone through this trial, in this way, and be found not guilty, he wouldn't be able to work in this country again, the media would ridicule his every sentence, decision and opinion, based on all the stuff thats been put forward by 'Arry' in his defence.

Not guilty what a joke, and we think we have a great legal system. Well at least he can go and ****up the England team now and spurs will fall by the wayside.

[Kenneth]

But was there any evidence that Harry moved income from his employment offshore to evade tax? Seemingly not. (although he's clearly guilty as sin)

[Alex]

Not to be too picky, but the legal verdict was reached with a unanimous decision by a Jury. There isnt much to complain about. He has been found innocent, so everyone has to treat him as such. Its not really a footballing matter is it.

I think the prosecution would have to prove motivation ie why was the money moved in the way it was... With no document to point to it goes to the testimony at trial which boils down to 'woops.'

Of course there is no evidence, Harry's dog moved the money because Harry cant read and write

So ignorence is infact an excuse then, well, at least when it comes to Arry..

You seem to be suggesting the jury was bent.

Have you seen all the evidence they were presented with over the course of a couple of weeks?

If so, can you elaborate on the flaws of the legal system?

[Lents]

Well we've all learned that saying you're remedial gets you off tax evasion charges. Interesting to know eh?!

[Shaggy]

Steve Claridge on BBC News: "It's been an unmitigated disaster under Capello and Harry is the no.1 target without any shadow of the imagination."

That's got Jenkins written all over it

I think this is good news for us. Harry has done a wonderful job at Spurs and this ensures that this will be his last season at Spurs for the next two years at least.

He will be the England manager now.
