Harry Redknapp tax evasion law suit

He's a fecking mug, I really hope he's sentenced appropriately if (when) found guilty.
 
If he was up for underage sex he'd probably come out with "naah, I don't do underage. If anything I do birds who are too old"
 
What has actually happened here? If he's paid millions but has somehow missed £10,000, cant they just ask him to pay it? Or did they try that?

He's accused of setting up an off-shore bank account in Monaco, which is said to have been used to receive £189,000 in a bonus payments from Milan Mandaric, avoiding income tax.
 
I can't believe he's building his whole defense on I'm a bit thick

BBC Sport:

"Before break judge told jury he was more than halfway through summing up. Looks like jury will start considering verdicts at around 1230."

"Judge Leonard continuing his summing up of evidence in the Redknapp/Mandaric trial before jury consider verdict. Court now taking a break."

Judge: "One of first questions you'll need to ask yourselves is - what was the Monaco payment for?"

Judge tells jury there's a scenario where they can find Harry Redknapp not guilty and Milan Mandaric guilty. They must not find Redknapp guilty and Mandaric not guilty. Judge says both Redknapp and Mandaric are of 'good character' and tells jury that might mean more likely they should believe their evidence."

Judge tells jury they may have sympathy with defendants' long wait for this trial, but verdicts must be decided on evidence not sympathy. Judge hands jury document titled 'Steps to Verdict'. Jury asked to follow it. For example, can only find guilty if believe tax was avoided."
 
If he is found not guilty I can see rioting in the streets like when those four police officers were found not guilty of beating Rodney King. I hear Ice Cube is working on a new track in the studio as we speak.
 
Why mustn't they find Mandaric not guilty and Redknapp guilty? Mandaric could have paid the money expecting Redknapp to pay the tax (even if he is lying now).

I'd hazard a guess that by paying it into an irregular bank account he's obviously taken part in the conspiracy to avoid tax?
 
PKelso (Telegraph):

Jury out in Redknapp trial at 12.25pm, told by judge to deliver "just verdicts". There will be no more verdict between 1pm and 2pm.
 
Why should he get off? He shouldn't have done it in the first place and then have the audacity to come out with the excuses he did. He's an idiot.
 
I like him though.

Anyway if it is just a fine or whatever, grand. But I would hate to see him go under
