Product Description

"From kicking a ball as a kid under the street lamps of Poplar and standing on Highbury's North Bank with my dad, to my first game at West Ham, I was born head over heels in love with football. It saved me, and 50 years on that hasn't changed one bit - I'd be lost without it�"

Harry is the manager who has seen it all - from from a dismal 70s Portakabin at Oxford City and training pitches with trees in the middle to the unbeatable highs of the Premiership, lifting the FA Cup and taking on Real Madrid in the Champions League. With his much loved, no-nonsense delivery, Harry brings us a story filled with passion and humour that takes you right inside every drama of his career. Harry finally tells the full story of all the controversial ups and downs - the pain and heartache of his court case, the England job, his love for Bobby Moore, his adventures at Portsmouth with Milan Mandaric, the Southampton debacle, Tottenham and Daniel Levy, and not forgetting his years at West Ham or the challenges at his current club QPR.

It�s the epic journey of one of the great managers and, along the way, the story of the British game itself over the last five decades. In an era now dominated by foreign coaches Harry is the last of an old-fashioned breed of English football man - one who has managed to move with the times and always come out fighting.

5.0 out of 5 stars As good as you'd expect 2 Jan 2014
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Massively bias from a non grudge bearing Pompey fan but a truly compelling read. The eye opening chapter on Bobby Moore's poor treatment by West Ham in retirement is worth the purchase alone. Sure, a pinch of salt is required from time to time but in all matters football there is no doubting he is a cut above everyone else.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing 14 Jan 2014
Format:Hardcover
Agreed you can imagine it coming out of Harry's mouth, but it might have been a better read if the ghost writer had actually re-written it a bit. That way it would have avoided the stream-of-consciousness writing style where he repeats himself and comes back to make the same point several paras later. (Try reading the bit about not getting the England job and what a good pick Roy is)!

It's also very Harry in that he has this lovely subtle style of bigging himself up on everything. So talks up his winning youth team, the fantastic achievements at the clubs he's been at, finding great players. It's very clever and subtle, but do look out for it. Coupled with this is then his defensiveness about anything negative that's been said about him (poor transfers, wasting money, jumping ship, bungs, tax evasion) - more repetitive 'putting the record straight'. He avoids talking about any of his catastrophic signings, other than some vague defensive comments about 'impossible to get it right all the time'. I'm not just picking at him, it would have been genuinelly more interesting to get his view about what went wrong! (i.e. signed David Nugent at Portsmouth for �6m and immediately never played him).

And most disappointingly, it's bland. He never really gives a strong opinion or insight where it might offend anyone. So you never get to hear about any interesting bad behaviour stories or fallings out. Why did he really leave Portsmouth? What exactly went on with Daniel Levy?

If you are a football fan it will be of interest, but there's no big stories in here or any insight to football. I didn't feel I knew him any better at the end of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honesty throughout 6 Jan 2014
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Any football fan will love this book. This isn't Harry Redknapp's autobiography, it's 'Arry Redknapp's. An honest, funny, down to earth football book. Class.

5.0 out of 5 stars I like Harry!
For whatever reason, Harry comes across as likeable and honest. His story is well worth a read and the book is money well spent.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting take on his career
Rose tinted view of a career in football, reading this confirms why England didn't happen. A good read though entertaining.

like the headline says "a great read" was saddened to read of the treatment of Bobby Moore by Management after his time at the club.
