Wow, Harry is a great storyteller. That was hilarious, lmao!

[@WeWantYouToStay]

He's definitely had to tell this story quite a few times haha

[@SilverMist0121]

were all like this us brits , on a decent piss up night its like being at the apollo 😂😂 until 1 cunt ruins it with a knuckle sandwich

[@buddyboy6071]

He is a great story teller but most of his stories are made up or completely exaggerated.

[@deafected]

Harry the transfer market king XD Can literally find you a striker from everywhere.

[@xajeyx]

Jack Ah Harry Redknapp, the wheeler dealer

[@yneshAshanti]

Lol! This is a man that made Darren bent look like gods gift to football.

[@hadisaleh3947]

Even from the crowd

[@benrichards399]

"i fought it was im!"...😂😂😂😂

[@LiamHolmes]

The great thing about the Redknapp and West Ham era is that they were just so open to 'what might happen'. Always up for taking risks. i remember as a kid I went down to the West Ham training ground, and literally just asked for a trial. I was given one 3 days later. The trial went well, and i got called back for an actual game the following Saturday, but I couldn't play the game as I had performing arts school to attend lol. Great memories.

[@iswhatitis1361]

That was like me when I seen klopp walking his dog in Stanley Park 3 days before the champions league final in 2019 and asked him if I could play...I got a game and won us the penalty early doors...Great memories.

[@unknowng888]

This is like when I was walking outside Wembley stadium once even though I live in east London and realised the England manager was on the same tube platform as me. I asked him “let me play gaffa” and he said “sure, what shirt number you want?” And I said “6 like Bobby Moore”. I turn up on the Saturday, score a last minute winner and won us the World Cup for the second time - then I woke up from my dream.

[@pacempax5236]

This is like the time when big ange subbed me on in the FA cup final at the 85th minute. I went on to score the last minute winner and bring the spurs their first trophy since 2008. Great day, but the best bit was winning the champions league the next year.

[@glasrazuma933]

"It was a sunny evening". Loool.

[@AtTheDriveBy]

Harry is a master storyteller.

[@CIMAmotor]

It's a true story but the lad's goal was disallowed.

[@isaz597]

I bet the fella's telling his Grandchildren that story.

[@user-mf9nc2vk1t]

@d b apparently no video evidence but he is called Steve Davies from Milton Keynes and he worked as a courier. There's a picture of him coming on and on the field on the day.

[@abdulfattah4276]

it dosent matter, that day he was better than chapman LOL

[@johnypirelli1118]

@d b Steve Davies, goalscoring west ham fan , on Norway tv

[@simonlancaster1815]

Davies scored. The goal by Beauchamp in the 65th minute was offside not his goal. www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2013/sep/05/harry-redknapp-played-fan-west-ham

[@thorganhazard8753]

old school manager always have the best stories to tell

[@KhanivoreQniba]

[@colinparks619]

[@leewalker6826]

Brilliant.

[@abdulsamedmohamed5752]

ur right and wrong Beauchamp goal was ruled offside, Steve Davies was offside he admitted it himself. Read the article it is on the guardian

[@stanleygoodspeed8816]

quality

[@geegeeuk7]

Haha brilliant!

[@jeffrawe6486]

Listen to Redknapp.......turn the story 180 degrees, invert it twice and you are somewhere near the truth !! But we luv him all the same.

[@brad00stevens]

good old 'arry

[@yomumsux]

No it wasn't. Beauchamp's goal in the 65th minute was offside. Davies's goal in the 71st minute was valid.

[@muzza2096]

If you watch the steve davies guy and redknapp on the 1 show on bbc you’ll see that the steve matey seems absolutely off his fucking rocker

[@RayShirleyPlanner]

video thread?

[@Matty6660]

hahahaha

[@czarcease4084]

lol he actually scored

[@Do27gg]

Surely if you’re good enough to score in a professional game you could have been signed 😂

[@manchesterisblue1023]

wheeler dealer!

[@TherymasterWidnes]

Class HR

[@bazglsgw1208]

Remember Harry was giving an interview n a guy hit him in the head with the ball. Harry shouted “ no wonder your in the fuckin reserves” 😂

[@matteoj226]

I think you'll find it was "fackin' reserves" 😅

[@loxc]

Spurs needa do the same thing and get Dier, Sanchez and Davies off and put the Fans on, I bet they're better

[@asranshahban4977]

Harry wheeling and dealing looking for a cheap fix up front

[@WeWantYouToStay]

No thats the joke, he was having the commentator on

[@yneshAshanti]

Haven’t you been watching the World Cup?!

[@JonnyAFKay]

Spoiler: The goal was ruled offside :P

[@kamarlnelson6588]

🤣🤣😂

[@footyfan1342]

Don't understand this story. By FA Rules, any player must be registered with the FA as well as listed in the teamsheet which is handed in before the game. You can't just invite an randomer to come and play for you. I won't even get into insurance and medicals and all of that. I am guessing that friendly games do not count.

[@howell1488]

yeah friendlies aren't FA registered games they're games arranged by both teams, you don't need to register anyone.

[@ShiftzyFTW]

It was only a pre-season friendly, so none of that applies

[@shaunkemp5810]

I said the same thing but then realised it was a friendly and you don’t have to be registered with the F.A. Team sheet would read trialist. What a moment for that guy though.

[@kevinsimpson3374]

How many times do I have to tell you you lost we won and by the way you're still going down!

[@porkypine1888]
