REDKNAPP
I couldn't beilieve it, I was standing in room full of journalists with Mr Levy by my side. I'd just given a statement about how proud I was to follow in dads footsteps and how excited I was to carry on with his legacy. It still feels like a blur but when dad got the call from the F.A about the England vacancy I knew he couldn't say No! He had always chirped on over the years about how coaching England was the pinnacle of English football management and that he would one day love to do it if he was ever given the chance. I expected dad to leave this year and become our new national coach but what I didn't expect was for Tottenham to come to me and ask me to take over from him.
I won't lie It wasn't a hard decision to make, Louise and I had always spoken about me making a move into management and after a brief talk with her we agreed it was too good of an offer to refuse, so I rang Mr Levy and excitedly told him I'd like to accept his offer.
As soon as I had got off the phone with Levy my phone rang... It was dad... "CONGRATULATIONS!" he bellowed out "I think your a fine choice" he followed up with. I spoke to him for roughly 45 minutes as he filled me in on different areas of the club and gave me some great intimate advice on players and how to integrate myself to them.
I finished the call with dad and drifted off into deep thought...
I think the fans are reasonably happy with my appointment although maybe someone like Jose Mourinho would have been more appealing than an Ex-Average England player who's the son of their former manager. It sounds almost like a soap opera.
Back to today and as myself and Levy left the conference room he shook my hand and told me that the media seemed excited about my appointment as manager. I thanked him for his support before he directed me down a hallway and told me to enjoy meeting the players.

I feel really guilty Harry's son is a very nice man and it's nice that he thinks of me as a player he can build the team around but I have already instructed my agent to look for other clubs for me. I have heard rumblings that Chelsea maybe interested in me. I now need o find the time to tell Harry's son
