brmbrm Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 As my Mum says! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1349486/Tottenham-Hotspur-manager-Harry-Redknapp-mugged-trip-Madrid-football-stadium.html This is classic comedy: "Two men distracted him by kneeling down in front of him and tugging at his trousers as he walked outside the stadium. While he was distracted the other four thieves went through his pockets, stealing his credit cards and cash." Errr, would you notice? Is that just a "distraction" in North London? FOUR people going through your pockets and you don't notice because the two people kneeling down tugging at your trousers "distract" you? I reckon 'appy 'arry was 'aving a bit of fun and got ripped off by his 6-gang of chummies....
georgeweahscousin Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 It does sound like he was paying a young chap for some downstairs fun, and his mates robbed him!
saintscottofthenortham Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 Smells fishy to me... - 'arry identifies target. - 'arry contacts targets agent with regards to "Brown Envelope". - Agent says " too dodgy mucker..." - 'arry says "I'll be at the sweet stall on the west side of the ground at 7pm local time.. My right pocket will have X amount of wonga in it. I won't tell the police. You sort the rest.
farawaysaint Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 It does sound like he was paying a young chap for some downstairs fun, and his mates robbed him! I read the story and didn't even twig but now you mention it... Who the hell tugs on someone's pants to rob them?
ChrisPY Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 'Arry up to his old tricks again... Travelling abroad and getting a dodgy tan... Buying a packet of sweets...
Deppo Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 The fact he didn't report it to the police is interesting. What is he hiding? The fact he had an extortionate amount of money on him in a brown envelope?
Graffito Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 I guess it must be traditional in Spain to sink a few sweets before the match, what with all those sweet stalls around the stadium. If he hadn't stopped to buy a bag of sweets for him and Kevin it might never have happened.
OldNick Posted 22 January, 2011 Posted 22 January, 2011 bizarre to say the least. Mugged in a large crowd, Bond standing with him?????? Left his passport and telephone though....all strange
cellone Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 So this was a mugging and not pickpocketing. Mugging involves the threat or use of violence.
Saint J 77 Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 So this was a mugging and not pickpocketing. Mugging involves the threat or use of violence. This is what I thought. When I read the headline I thought he might have got a good kicking. But it turns out he got off lightly and it was just a couple pick-pockets really. I guess they used "Redknapp Mugged" as the headline to get more people interested in the story. Unless of course he was paying a young chap for some downstairs fun, and his mates robbed him, as georgeweahscousin has suggested... haha. Now that would have been a HEADline to sell a few extra papers
saintbletch Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 Tax evasion. Turns out the muggers were representatives of Diego Forlan and the cash they 'stole' was his signing on fee (half to be put in a Swiss account for HR's retirement).
cellone Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 Police are looking for a cheeky chappy in a top hat and blue velvet coat. Oh you gotta pick a pocket or two.
hackedoff Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 How did he manage to stop twitching long enough for someone to get their hands in his pocket ?
Fan The Flames Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 Didn't Daniel Levy get mugged in Spain too a couple of years back whilst watching a player.
latter day saint Posted 24 January, 2011 Posted 24 January, 2011 police are looking for a cheeky chappy in a top hat and blue velvet coat. Oh you gotta pick a pocket or two. tcwtb ?
Secret Site Agent Posted 25 January, 2011 Posted 25 January, 2011 They needed 4 of them to carry his wallet
