Well, this isn’t a surprise.
Harry Redknapp’s decision to join Twitter raised a few eyebrows recently, mostly due to statements the former QPR and Spurs manager previously made during a court case over alleged tax evasion.
Redknapp was acquitted, but admitted during the 2012 case that: “I can’t work a computer, I don’t know what an email is. I’ve never sent a fax and I’ve never sent a text message.”
So you can imagine everyone’s surprise when he popped up on social media and started tweeting perfectly structured sentences like a Harvard scholar.
However, the nature of Redknapp’s tweets suggested that it might not actually be him controlling the account.
Best of luck to the England U21s up against Portugal tonight – hope the lads get a good result.

It’s sad to see Tiger Woods play the way he is. He’s the greatest player ever but at the moment his game has gone.

It seemed as though some type of Twiter bot was running the account for Redknapp. The ‘Arry Tweetatron 3000, who’s always on hand to provide generic opinions on generic topics, while also directing followers to an external sport website.
And now Redknapp has revealed the dark truth behind ‘his’ Twitter account. It’s actually run by a social media agency, who the 68 year old gave permission to use his name. 
“I still don’t understand it,” Redknapp told The Guardian. “I don’t have a clue what it is. I don’t even know how long it is going to last.”
We’d wager the account will disappear right around the time you get another job in football management ‘Arry.
In the meantime, the former Spurs boss is pursuing other interests.
