Redknapp set for Rovers talks
8:06am Tuesday 30th October 2012 in Sport
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
Harry Redknapp
HARRY Redknapp is due to meet Blackburn Rovers today to discuss the Ewood Park managerial vacancy – but Venky’s would have to offer him a lucrative package to stand any chance of landing him.
The former Tottenham boss will conclude Rovers’ interview process, after Rovers’ Premier League winner Henning Berg met with officials last night, as the end to their month-long manager-ial search looms ever nearer.
Blackpool boss Ian Holloway is also understood to still be high up on Rovers’ shortlist but an official approach is only likely to be put in for him if they decide he is their man.
Managing director Derek Shaw is believed to be a big admirer of Holloway but global advisor Singh was determined to interview the other contenders before making a decision.
Singh had always favoured the idea of moving for a young and up coming manager, ideally with a Rovers connection, but Redknapp’s recent interest in the post has attracted his attention.
Huddersfield manager Simon Grayson and MK Dons boss Karl Robinson are understood to no longer be in the running, with Redknapp, Berg and Holloway now believed to be the three frontrunners.
As revealed exclusively in the Lancashire Telegraph on Thursday, Redknapp has wanted to discuss the job with the club and is expected to get his way today.
The man who was the favourite to be the England boss just six months ago – before Roy Hodgson was surprisingly appointed – is likely to put Singh and co through their paces and will want a number of assuran-ces before considering the position.
Redknapp is likely to want a significant transfer kitty for the January transfer win-dow to bolster Rovers’ squad for a Premier League push, with the prospect of moving north also a hurdle that would have to be to overcome.
Any deal for Redknapp would be ex-pected to be heavily loaded with bonuses for success on the field.
Rovers have already had approaches tur-ned down to speak to Fulham coach Billy McKinlay and Tottenham’s Tim Sherwood, with sections of supporters growing increasingly frustrated at the delay in replacing Steve Kean.
Singh last night stated an appointment would be made by the middle of this week and, with interviews coming to an end today, remains hopeful the search will be at an end within the next couple of days.
Since Redknapp’s interest was made known last week, large numbers of Rovers fans have grown increasingly excited by the prospect of the 65-year-old, with many believeing experience is the route to needed to secure an instant top flight return.

So after a month of deliberating we now have a short list which ranges from the guy most of the country (including the press) wanted to be England manager to an ex player who had a short and unsuccessful spell as a club manager in football-mad Norway! Do they have a clue what they are doing? It never ceases to amaze me how clubs can splash the cash on strikers and baulk at paying good money for a manager. If Redknapp is even willing to talk to us it shows his interest. Vencky’s could do themselves a big favour by being bold and going for broke with Harry. If he gets us back to the PL, gives us a high profile and draws the crowds it would be worth a fortune to the owners and who knows maybe even win over the fans (and pigs might fly!).

However, after reading on teletext this morning that our bid to obtain Cameron Jerome on loan is in danger of breaking down because Rovers only want to pay half his wages, does not inspire confidence.
With this penny pinching approach we have absolutely no chance of getting Harry Redknapp.
Shebby - this is the one appointment that would unite all the fans
Offer him a lucative bonus if he gets us promoted and the club can't lose.
I would definitely not consider Berg as his record in the Norwegian League is only average at best.
If not Harry, then wait a little longer for OGS.

On that basis, candidates like Henning Berg must be a no-no. If Harry fails to take the job then only a manager with his own proven track record will do.

If Redknapp arrives the following will happen...Players will give him immediate respect and their performances will improve by 15% or more, increasing their potential transfer revenues. Fan numbers will immediately increase. Sponsors, advertisers and corporate hospitality income will come back and more, new players will want to come to the club, the clubs reputation will be restored and the media will support Harry. It will however cost the club a lot of money, and there are no guarantees of promotion this year. Shebby, do what the club can, to secure this appointment, if you can make it attractive enough for Harry. Give him the brief to work with and develop a young future manager, Sherwood as his assistant possibly again if the club can afford it. And remember, this league is like quicksand, once you get stuck in it, its hard to get out, our best chance is at the first time of asking, and we are in a good position. Rednapp would give the whole club a new momentum that could get us back to the Premier League where you are guaranteed a minimum £60 Million income next year.

If they went for Harry it would send out a clear statement of their intent and ambition. What message would it send out to recruit Berg? They've cocked up big style so far, this is their big chance to redeem themselves. But dream on, we all know where this is heading!
Sounds great but why do I fear the same result as when John Bond took over at Burnley and how long did it take them to get back to a realistic position.

This club will never, ever be the same as it was, even getting rid of the whole sick Venky's regime will not bring it back.
I don't really care who gets the job if I am honest because whoever it is will be tainted by Venky's and the boo boys.
Redknapp is no fool, he's a bit long in the tooth to fall for their diatribe and I suspect there are a couple of clubs down south, QPR and Southampton who will be more to his liking.
We might just be being used to remind their chairmen or owners that he is around and available.
Come to think of it Hoddle might actually be a good bet, he's off with the faeries already, Ewood would suit him.

So has Holloway been interviewed or not? You say at the beginning that the interview process will be finished after Redknapp, then you say that "....... Holloway is also understood to still be high up on Rovers’ shortlist but an official approach is only likely to be put in for him if they decide he is their man." This implies he has NOT been interviewed. How can they decide if he is 'their man' without interviewing him?

He clearly has some interest, which to be honest surprises me for a host of obvious reasons. I'm not holding my breath at 'Arry taking the job but it would be an outstanding first class appointment and give the club the huge injection of positiveness it is craving.
Berg wouldn't be in my reckoning. He's not proven and we can't afford to take the risk like we did with Harford, Kidd and Ince. However, if Berg got the job, he would get my 100% backing. Talk of boycotting now is down right ridiculous in my opinion. Venkys are going nowhere soon and boycotting is cutting your nose to spite your face.
If the worst manager in the history of Blackburn Rovers managed to scrape a few wins together in this league, then whoever the next manager is will be more than capable of giving us a fighting chance to get into the promised land. RTID!!!!

Regarding Maradonna, don't you think its just another attempt to inflate Venky's media profile. Shebby probably gets a bonus every time Venkys get a mention in a newspaper somewhere around the globe.

Yes he got the good playes on massive contracts won the FA cup, great, but then left the club in allsorts of a financial mess with big contract players they had to sell to financially survive, unfortunately they didnt achieve it and are now in league 1 with a very small squad.

Sorry ignore last question I've already answered it. Coffee breath
Regarding Maradonna, don't you think its just another attempt to inflate Venky's media profile. Shebby probably gets a bonus every time Venkys get a mention in a newspaper somewhere around the globe.

Sounds great but why do I fear the same result as when John Bond took over at Burnley and how long did it take them to get back to a realistic position.
Dont believe Rovers have the income potential from their crowds to sustain his spending levels and just remember Portsmouth - glory at a price
This would be my one concern
HR demands huge transfer budgets and players get huge wages and long contracts.
Could be a dangerous road to go down.

Reg now expects Blackburn Rovers to appoint ex- Aston Villa, Birmingham City, Rangers and Scotland manager Alex McLeish (pic above) to the Ewood hot seat this week.
Eric Black will be retained as McLeish’s assistant.
It makes sense for the cash conscious Venky’s. No compensation to pay for the unemployed and available McLeish. Or to pay to a sacked Eric Black.
Only Shebby Singh stands in the way of the appointment, which would lead to Managing Director Derek Shaw quitting the club as the gulf between the two men grows.
Singh, who is looking for “the next big thing”. Wants to interview the Birmingham City Management team of 40 year old Lee Clarke, Liverpool and England legend Terry McDermott and former Blackburn Rovers Captain and England coach Derek Frazackerley.It is thought the trio would welcome a move away from troubled Birmingham City.
Shebby (open mouth then engage brain) Singh still holds hope of persuading Spurs to part with Tim Sherwood.
I however expect Shaw to win the day and appoint McLeish and retain the popular Eric Black.

But you may be right in the greedy world of big time football charlies ,the greed is good brigade ,footballers the modern day Gordon Gekko `s , the money they make nowadays to most of us is abhorant, if 'french rovers" post is true that the clown Hendry is a popular guy inside the football world , Its very sad that a man who is violent to women ,a person who swindles old people pensions , if he is popular with other footballers and I do not believe that to be true,but if it is we are a lost cause.
But something tells me ,that most footballers are decent lads and MOST are as disgusted with HENDRY as the rest of the public are , there could be a small few that think Hendry is popular , but probably ones that are dishonourable people like him.
But of course Hendry knows so many people as he played at the top level for several clubs, but then that does not mean they are automatically called his 'friends'.
The whole manager thing is lurching from one embarrassment to another every day it seems.

Still, Harry ruling himself out publicly doesn't actually mean he won't accept. (Remember Pompey?) It's not as if he tells the truth as a rule is it?
He's 20-1 to be next Blackburn manager and I've seen worse 20-1 shots.

God I hate most of the fickle people who comment on here. How can you idiots say Berg will be a failure BEFORE he's even got through the door. Just because hes not the biggest name from this three man list! Get a grip "fans". Most of you are as inbred and numb as the Dingles. I for one, will back whoever becomes our manager. Love Rovers, hate most of the fans.
