Tottenham assistant manager Kevin Bond has revealed his side have been missing the presence of manager Harry Redknapp following the 0-0 draw at Liverpool.
Redknapp, currently on trial in London, failed to get to the game after a plane due to take him north from London City airport was grounded because of a technical problem.
And Bond describes his absence as "horrible".
"Harry would normally give the team talk and he was unable to do that," said Bond. "He couldn't get here. But we knew the side and the way we were going to play. It was just a different voice giving the instructions to the players.
"But he is our leader and we wanted him here as much as he wanted to be here.
"It is horrible. We had a similar situation the month before last when we played Fulham and he was unable to be at the game."

Arry Your a star "Well Done Son" You lucky bast*rd. HA HA HA
Harry is inocent the verdict is in now lets have an investigation into the vendeta that has been going on for years against him and lets get rid of Crappello and give harry the Job, I believe that he could do the england job and win thwe league with totenham and probably walk on water too.
Good on yeh 'arry best this nonsense goes away - I like the man - from a Gooner
Harry is a great manager, he should be with his team for all matches.Good luck to him!!!
I like Harry... he's a great actor in the Olivier mold....hope he doen't end up doing Porridge
Harry is a crim. A good spell inside will see him follow the right path when he comes out. He has stryed from the writing of the Torrah :-)
Hope you get jail you greedy barsteward!
All the best Harry... your a top bloke. From Man U fan
What a shame for Harry. He is inside for sure following in the footsteps of Lester Piggott and Ken Dodd. What a shame for Tottenham just when you were getting it right. So what now. Cant leave it to the imbecilic Kevin Bond so a new manager by March. Mourinho at best Mclaren at worst.
If Harry was guilty why would he tell of his bank account in Monaco ? at least he came clean not like the majority of Prem Managers, who wouldn.t disclose their accounts. He gives loads away to charity, don.t forget about the illegal raid to his house when he was abroad, Sandra must have been beside herself.
Good luck Harry all the best Top man (and a Chelsea Boy)
Harry is innocent, hurry back to the lane last night showed how much the team need you harry. these people who say that you are guilty should take a good hard look at there own lives.
if he was not trying to avoid paying tax he would have opened an account in this country. why should he get away with it ,we wouldn't.
Lord of Time = Typical Gooner numpty
harry if you are found guilty then the whole high rate tax payers should be investigated as i dont believe for one moment any of them has not fiddled 20/30k.
that,s what a window cleaner or a builders fiddles on a avarage year.
Happy Harry
Happy in the scrubs
don't think so.
I sincerely hope 'Arry is declared not guilty... he is probably the last of the true English football men
Do any of the people leaving comments , anti or pro Harry, actually know the man?
spurs needs you
'Arry redknapp os innocent OK!
