Bookies Turn To Pardew After Redknapp Heart Scare

The Tottenham manager has revealed he will be back on the White Hart Lane touchline soon, and is hoping this "incident" won't ruin his England chances ... although some bookies suggest it will.

The 64-year-old has spoken about his heart scare.

He had two stents inserted to unblock coronary arteries on Wednesday, forcing him to miss Thursday's Europa League Group A game at Rubin Kazan.

Harry Redknapp: "I have a running machine at home and run or jog for around half an hour several times a week to help stay fit.

"But this time I went on and had been running for no more than about two minutes when I felt pains in my chest. I had hardly got going when it went tight and I was struggling to breathe.

"As soon as that happens you know the best thing to do is stop immediately, which I did.

"I wasn't that frightened if I'm honest - but it was clearly a warning sign from within.

"I just stopped running there and then and I went to see the club doctor at Spurs. He got me in to see a specialist on Saturday and by Monday I was in hospital.

"I've had narrow or blocked arteries for some time. I've been taking tablets for it just like a lot of people my age do. It's no big thing.

"They didn't even put me out. I was sort of half-conscious while they did what they had to do and now it's all taken care of.

"I haven't had a heart attack. It was just that the specialist told me the arteries needed doing now.

"So we arranged it all and here I am. I feel fine and everyone tells me I will soon be feeling better than ever.

"I'm lucky that I work in an industry where there are experts and specialists on hand to look after you properly.

"After this weekend we have a break for international matches coming up anyway.

"After that I'll be back in at Tottenham and back on the training pitch.

"This isn't going to stop me doing the job I love.

"I love my football and won't be walking away any time soon. I can assure everyone I'm doing okay.

"It won't stop me running - I might even do the marathon one day."

"Magpies In Europe" is available NOW! It features match reports and individual features from Toon fans on the 60 'away' trips Newcastle have made in Europe. Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me. "I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'! "Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down. "Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff. "I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10." The book is available NOW from THE BACK PAGE!
