He gave me my best Pompey memories, our 2002/2003 season was utterly brilliant, loads of fabulous premier league games and of course the FA cup......Fratton Park quite literally rocked on a regular basis !

[@montanaprime]

I used to love the Pompey teams with Harry, massive time. Imagine Benjani didn’t want to leave the club. That should tell you about the time. Well if Forest and Leeds made it back to the Prem, your time is coming Pompey. I want Pompey and Charlton back in the Prem.

[@W..949]

We had some good times with Harry and Jim.

[@mattnolan4469]

I was only 6 but I remember that match ever so clear. First time I ever saw my dad cry. Redknapp is king 🔵⚓

[@sydneydarts5911]

Well done Harry R and his team. I will cherish those memories with my Dad. Amazing times.

[@sydneydarts5911]

Hold on whats with the DOF bit at the end?

[@simonclee3529]

So true, the most fantastic time watching Pompey. In over fifty years of watching the blues this was without doubt the best, plus I had £25 each way on Pompey at 28/1 to win the 2008 FACup. Manchester United away was SO GOOD, will never forget it

[@lewispetherick6753]

Greatest Pompey manager ever. Harry. My godfather Keith’s brother was in hospital after he fell out of a tree and eventually died but was given a team photo of when they won the league in 1949 and Montgomery Field Marshall (Chairman/Owner at the time) never signed autographs, but he did sign the photo and it was in blue pen, Keith was fortunate enough to see the lift the cup, he passed on his ticket and flag to me when he noticed I knew a lot about Pompey than he thought. He is at peace now, Play up Pompey!

[@portsmouthtillidie6484]

We need redknapp back 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️

[@anfieldunited4188]

Jacket out !!

[@theretiredmariner2488]

Thank you for the fantastic memories Harry, PUP

I Still Love Ya Harry Mate. Harry Redknapp’s Blue🔵 And White⚪️Army

[@dangermace11]

Harry came across as quite genuine until he said he didn't know the club was going to the wall when he left for spurs. He knew full well which is why he jumped. And then came back for Kaboul and Krancjar on next to nothing offers too. Good old Redknapp still playing the innocence card...

[@Alex-cs9ty]

Absolutely mate, there's a lot of people in this comment section with very short-term memories of how complicit the bloke was in our club's near demise. He's a prick.

[@kitpalmer1583]

@leslie graham i don't really have a problem with him fleeing a sinking ship. The problem's with him feigning naivety, acting like he didn't know what was coming, because let's face it- we all know that's bollocks, I could see what was happening and I was about 11 years old 😂

[@Dr._Mink_Coat]

@@Alex-cs9ty that prick brought Pompey an FA cup and the greatest Pompey teams/players of my lifetime The good Harry times far exceed the bad moments

[@MacGamesOnline]

Not being funny but he got told what he could spend so he did so sorry to say but Harry is a legend and not his fault at all

[@Wimpywoo16]

@@MacGamesOnline That’s easy to say when your a Man City, but Portsmouth???

[@lyndonbrame1418]

What does it for me is that the day before he left he was on sentana sports saying he was portsmouth till I die then left for spurs the next day. Other then that my generation saw the best team, games and atmosphere Blue army

[@Quadlaners]

It was the best time IMHO

[@pfc6572]

[@user-ld8jw1no6c]

[@pompeyboy5501]

Harry Redknapp Should Comeback As Director of Football, or a number 2, I think he’s to old for full on management Now.

[@jamescurtis6946]

Would love to see him working alongside the Cowley bros!
