Managing a football club is just a job. The deliverables are virtually identical, they just come wrapped in different coloured packaging.

Redknapp was born in Poplar, London, the only child of Henry Joseph William Redknapp (1922–1996) and Violet May Brown (1924–2001).
At age eleven, while Redknapp was playing for East London Schools football, he was spotted by Dickie Walker, a Tottenham Hotspur scout. From there, Redknapp grew in the Tottenham youth ranks playing at Cheshunt, meeting the likes of Bill Nicholson, Dave Mackay and Danny Blanchflower. At age 15, Redknapp moved to West Ham United and played alongside Bobby Moore.[11] In a 2008 interview, Redknapp stated as part of a tribute to Tom Finney, "I was a big Arsenal fan as a kid and I remember seeing him play against Tommy Docherty one night."

After being appointed Tottenham manager later in 2008, Redknapp stressed his Tottenham connections as well, stating:

I am a big follower of the history of the game and Tottenham have been a great club over the years. I followed Tottenham, I trained there as an 11-year-old, 12-year-old so I know the history of the club. It is a big, big club.

I love Arry but he's an absolute carny and a grifter and out for number 1. He'll just say whatever he needs to say in order to suit himself best at any time. He's mr West Ham when there are opportunities to talk about us, and mr whoever when something else calls. No shame whatsoever. Fucking hell, he went from Pompey to Southampton and straight back again.

I remember the first astro turf pitch I ever played on...it was basically something you could pick up in Allied Carpets glued to some tarmac. Absolutely brutal.

I thought that Luton/Oldham/Q.P.R pitches were more sophisticated but they were practically the same bloody thing!

BODO are a tiny team & no one could name any of their players
Good luck to them

Tottenham won the Europa which had no Champions league drop outs by beating BODO and then an awful Man U team in a final that would have embarrassed a National League playoff final or a Johnstones Paint Trophy round of 16
They then sacked their manager because it was so embarrassing

Definitely a guilty pleasure for fans watching Spurs completely losing their shit. Some take it so bad they either walk out of live national radio broadcasts or go missing for days on end when they cannot accept their demise. 😆

Man U were fucking shit last season we did the double over them with Lop and Potter.. That's a quite a level of shit. Bodo have improved this season as well. 

Having said that they beat better teams than we did to win the conference.

Playing up near the Arctic circle I guess the pitch is a necessity if you want to play at all
Understood Bodo are out of season as well so this is amazing …. smashed City, beat Inter home & away and now destroyed Sporting
UEFA must be hating it as their darlings go out

Yeah, these days they're not AstroTurf in the old sense. There are parameters and standards. Whilst ideally all football would be played on snooker table style pitches, our own turf is grass seed entwined around synthetic (vinyl) strands of plastic grass. Robot mowers with lasers cut the genetically modified semi-organic grass strands down to within a fraction of a millimetre of the maximum length of the vinyl. Our undersoil heating sucks before it blows to straighten it all out after it is used, so none of it is truly turf. Those that are proper grass become the muddy quagmires you see when a lower league team draws a big name in the cup and we all laugh nostalgically about how quaint it is that it's a 'proper old school pitch' like Bonds used to play on and it separates the men from the pandered millionaire players of today.

In all honesty the plastic pitches are better, more uniform and safer than those muddy ones these days but if a club doesn't have the money (or sometimes the climate) to keep a pitch in the conditions we're used to but can still be champions over a season only playing half their matches on it, I'm ok with them having their home ground in European competition being the same as the home ground that made them domestic champions.

I'd sooner that than the slim possiblity that Tottenham could be playing in the Champions League next season in one of the flashiest stadia in the world but in the domestic second tier. That really would cheapen the competition!

Couldn't agree more on the 2nd point. UEFA have diluted and fucked about with all the competitions that they have lost some of it's prestige.

As for plastic pitches, if every Club decided they would rather play Football on a plastic pitch, you'd be happy with that? Personally I don't enjoy watching games played on such pitches.
