Formal approach received

Prepare for the worst & prey he stays.

If he is to leave, I want him to go now and not drag it, he is obviously going to sleep on any offer, but lets face it, he has probably known about any offer for a couple of days at least, secondly if he does depart, I would like to think he would show the club a little respect and not rape and pillage the players he considers his.

I think the club have a replacement in house, Big Tony will surely step up

Spot on Russell. He will probably have made his mind up and it has come at the wrong time for Pompey because HR is on a low after arrest and no investment in window.

The club are 'in the dark' supposedly.

the problem is, untill the manager thing is sorted, i doubt we will be signing too many players. and the 9million seems like a lot for a club not willing to spend.

I see Mandaric reckons he will go, Smith didn't last night but tonight admits he has discussed it with Harry, it all seems to boil down to Harry sitting in an armchair in 10 years time thinking "What If?"

I agree with Carpet that the Fred link is one way to look at this situation - if we sign Fred over the next 24 hours then we know Harry ain't goin !

does milan now how harrys feeling at the moment, it shows money talks. i think T Adams might leave as well if HR goes.

tonytime - spot on...or at least exactly the same as my FIRST reaction. however, as time goes on, and i read more and more about it, doubt creeps into my mind, and it just seems unlikely that he will stay. money talks. but you are spot on, that there is no bovious reason why he would want to move. it could only be about the funding.

Skysports reports that Shearer would be interested if approached! Once the Geordies get hold of that one Harry won't get a look in!

im trying to understand why he would want to go - the set-up is all in place - but i keep saying to myself 'how could he do this again'... i will never forget what he has done for us but should he leave again like this his legacy will not be the one that it could, or even should have been... i want to start focusing on the weekend game, but also want things sorted sooner rather than later - lets hope it is sorted tomorrow, if he could be leaving i cant see how he could pick the team on sunday, or be involved, if he isnt - and hasnt gone by then - that would surely mean he is staying... all hypotherical thoughts tho!

Aye rug, we deserve Harry Redknapp finishing his job properly. I can't bare the thought of him sitting in the away dugout and would rather miss the game. It's like your missus cheating on you and then turning up to a party at your house with her new fella. The Times report that we've given Harry until lunchtime to make his decision.

agreed re the legacy, it won't be the same for him if HR goes for the move. To be honest although I am a bit on the sidelines it will sadden me if he does go, because its another nail in the football competitive coffin. Do the right thing Harry ! ffs, that for footballs sake !

agree about steve coppel, disagree abput adams. i think he needs to get a bit of managerial experiance, before jumpinng into the hot seat. For Harry, it is a simple choice. Does he stay, and remain a legend at the football club - one that will be remembered probbly for ever, or does he go, and attempt to convert a failing footbakk club back intoi a great one - in doing so making more money - and possibly earning a place at the fore front of a new era at newcastle? Newcastle is risky, and the achievment is much smaller. Pompey is worse paid, but he cant fail to achieve, and be a succsess - and have the full support of the fans.

in response to your earlier comment rug the set up is not in place. the training ground planning is rejected, the stadium is at best 5 years away> Pompey bid 9 million bid for Fred when my french colleagues say that his club have clearly said that they want 10.5 as a minimum and spurs are likely to offer that. Lets say they accept our bid, will he come once his agent tells him his new genius manager is off.

At the start of the season I was having trouble registering on Vital and i then went away. With the help of Rug my log in is now working. Back at the start of the seaon I sent an article to Rug predicting a few things about Pompey , Harry and Sasha. I wont give the full article but suffice to that I said Harry would jump ship or be sacked during or at the end of the season, Sasha would sell Pompey and the stadiunm etc would not be built while Sasha was the owner as he doesn't have the money and it is only a PR exercise by him to attract a bigger offer for the club and that he would spend only enough on players to ensure we stay a premier team in the top half of the league as he will get an even better price. I said that for Sasha , Pompey was a business and would be treatd as a business to be sold at a big profit.Buyers were and still are interested in buying Pompey and have spent a lot of money investigating the club. Although there are the usual denials from the club, why would anyone pend mega nmoney on this f they knew for sure the club wasn't for sale.

They have made an appraoch but im certain he will not go, is the worst job at the moment!!
