On 13th September Jamie Redknapp stated on Sky Sports that I left Tottenham ‘in a mess’ when I sold the club to Daniel Levy.
Tonight, during Sky’s Bournemouth v Fulham coverage, Redknapp has made a full apology and has retracted this false allegation. Also, by way of a further apology, a donation of £10,000 has been made to Great Ormond Street Hospital @GOSHCharity
Redknapp said: “I mentioned that Lord Sugar had left the club ‘in a mess’. I just want to make clear that he stabilised the club and invested heavily during his time as chairman. When he took over in 1991 Spurs were close to bankruptcy, and by the time he stepped away the financial position had been turned around. He also put significant money into the team and facilities. I apologise to Lord Sugar and his family for any misunderstanding and for any distress caused, and am happy to set the record straight.”
@arseblog@gunnerblog Do you feel like Ben White is overlapping a lot less this year? With him not overlapping, Saka often isn’t able to find as much space to come inside and shoot. This was a big feature of our attack last season #arsecastextra
