Title: Harry Redknapp in trouble? Post by: Nemo on Friday, October 2, 2009, 13:00:21 Being very careful with this because it's potentially horribly libellous, but there are a lot of rumours going around that Redknapp is on his way out of Spurs- SkyBet have him down to evens to be next manager to go.
As Spurs have made a very good start to the season, it seems likely that this would, if true, be for 'other' reasons. Likely Fuzz-related. Could be an interesting afternoon. Title: Re: Harry Redknapp in trouble? Post by: Doore on Friday, October 2, 2009, 13:11:46 Probably nonsense though:
William Hill spokesman: "It is probably a bandwagon effect as ususal, based on unsubstantiated gossip, but in volatile markets of this nature you can’t afford to take a chance and we are being inundated with calls from punters wanting to bet that Harry will be the first to go.” Source: http://www.sport.co.uk/news/Football/27874/Bookies_dramatically_slash_odds_on_Redknapp_to_leave_Tottenham.aspx Title: Re: Harry Redknapp in trouble?

Title: Re: Harry Redknapp in trouble? Post by: Spencer_White on Friday, October 2, 2009, 17:00:00 There are a lot of betting scams involving manager speculation at the moment.
Rumour starts, syndicate puts on £3,000 that manager will leave. Odds shorten. Syndicate then puts 10x as much on Betfair that the manager will stay. Title: Re: Harry Redknapp in trouble? Post by: Nemo on Friday, October 2, 2009, 17:02:10 How much money would you need to stake to actually get the odds cut down that far though? Redknapp was about 4th least favourite yeterday.

Title: Re: Harry Redknapp in trouble? Post by: oxford_fan on Saturday, October 3, 2009, 09:50:39 Nothing seems to be happening, I think Spence is right
Title: Re: Harry Redknapp in trouble? Post by: JPC82 on Saturday, October 3, 2009, 14:00:07 Paddy Power stopped taking bets on Benitez a few months ago, which was a betting scam like spence said
