Spot The Difference

March 23rd 2012 Harry Redknapp responds to suggestions that his name being touted for the England job has had an effect on results. 'Absolute nonsense. That's the biggest load of nonsense I've ever heard in my life. They don't care whether I'm manager next year. They wouldn't lose any sleep over that.' 'Footballers play the game, they come in every day and train. Someone else walks in here tomorrow-the king is dead, long live the king. They don't worry. They don't think 'Harry is going to England' or 'he is going to go somewhere else''.

June 5th 2012 Harry Redknapp responds to lack of clarity over his contract. 'The simple situation is, I've got a year left on my contract. It's up to Tottenham whether they want to extend that contract or not. If they don't extend it and I go into my last year, it's not an easy one when players know you've only got a year left. 'It's not a case of me looking for security. What it's about is players knowing you've got a year left on your contract, and knowing that it doesn't work, basically. I think it's a situation of 'well he might not be here next year.'

You may suppose that the media and Harry aren't giving each other mutual hand-jobs and that a journo (other than a crappy little blogger) has the nouse and the balls to question him about this, rather than just sit, swilling champers, in First Class on the Gravy Train.
