So it's all over Twittererer that there will be an 'important* announcement' about Redknapp at 2:30pm today.
Any ITKs want to hazard a punt?
Rumours I've seen are he's quitting Spurs on heath grounds/ this tax evasion thing/ to become England boss. Though I'm kind of just hoping that he says he "likes the look" of some other team's player.
EDIT - Redknapp even

Harry Redknapp and Milan Mandaric face trial on 23 January next year relating to allegations of cheating the public revenue.
Redknapp denies any wrongdoing but would have good reason for his mind to be on other matters when Tottenham Hotspur take on the current Premier League leaders, Manchester City, at the Etihad Stadium the day before the proceedings begin.
The timing of the trial may interfere with his club's preparations for the Premier League matches against Wigan Athletic and Liverpool, and, should Spurs qualify, the fourth round of the FA Cup on 28 January.
Redknapp and Mandaric, the owner of Sheffield Wednesday, both face two counts of cheating the public revenue. Their alleged offences relate to tax payments due while the pair were respectively manager and chairman of Portsmouth.
The indictment laid down by prosecutors states: "Mandaric and Redknapp, between 1 April 2002 and 28 November 2007, with intent to defraud and to the prejudice of HM Revenue and Customs, arranged for $145,000, paid by Mandaric as a result of or in connection with Redknapp's employment and as a reward for services, to be transferred to a Monaco bank account opened by Redknapp for that purpose, in order to conceal the said emolument from HM Revenue and Customs and evade the payment of income tax and national insurance contributions thereon (whether by the operation of PAYE by the club or otherwise)."
As for count two, the indictment states: "Mandaric and Redknapp between 1 May 2004 and 28 November 2007, with intent to defraud and to the prejudice of HM Revenue and Customs, arranged for $150,000, paid by Mandaric as a result of or in connection with Redknapp's employment and as a reward for services, to be transferred to a Monaco bank account opened by Redknapp for that purpose, in order to conceal the said employment income from HM Revenue and Customs and evade the payment of income tax and national insurance contributions thereon (whether by the operation of PAYE by the club or otherwise)."
The pair will fight the charges in a trial scheduled to last two weeks.

It was probably a misunderstanding.

I understand this was a mistranslation, the actual quote was that he had been cooking the books.

Given the size of the amounts involved and, therefore, the size that the brown envelopes must have been, how did he manage to stuff them in his jacket pocket without anyone noticing ??
That must have taken real skill.

A bit harsh, he has only made 2 posts. Some people take a long long time to get used to quoting!
