It is the OJ defence ... if you're famous and have enough dosh you will find it easier to get an acquital. They are famous & have enough dosh .... & they've been acquited.
Big fckg surprise.
Another nail in the coffin of the jury system I fear.

Re: Twitching Harry
I have two questions..
1. Am I missing something? WHY would a football club manager (employee of the club) be entitled to ANYTHING at all when the club sells a player (employee of the club) to another club?
2. Harry's defense was that although he said in plain english several times in a recorded telephone interview that the money was a bonus from the sale of Peter Crouch - he was lying. His defense was that he was lying??

Re: Twitching Harry
If you're a selling club and you're job as a manager is to get the best out of the team and also make a profit on player sales, I'd say it's alright a manager getting a 'bonus' of commission on player profits.

Re: Twitching Harry
Remember the judge apparently stressed upon the jury in summing up that Mandaric and Redknapp were "decent blokes".....or wtte.

yeah - i CAN see the logic in incentivising a manager to bring in talent and sell on at a profit - it's how many clubs survive.. but it does raise other questions...
1. does the manager then LOSE if you sell at a loss?
2. how much of the actual discovery of new talent does the manager do - is it not the scouts? are they similarly incentivised/
3. are there not conceivably situations where it sets up a conflict of interest - where it is in the manager's interest to sell while a player is at peak value, but not the club's?
