Since then a lot of water has passed under the Tyne, the Toon are in the top half of the Premier League, and Harry is struggling in the Championship.
Would Ashley consider him again - should Alan Pardew get his P45?
Well, Redknapp is a cockney (which is an Ashley priority), he likes the odd brown paper parcel, buys his socks from Sports Direct, and supports Spurs.
SORTED!
But, is he all wind and piss? QPR have backed him with the biggest and best squad in the Championship, and he's struggling.
With Michael Laudrup (who is not a cockney) available, he would be a better option for Newcastle.
Redknapp maintains QPR can still secure automatic promotion from the Sky Bet Championship as they look to overcome "the first little blip" of their season.
QPR have slipped out of the top two following a winless run of four matches, losing 1-0 at Charlton to a stoppage-time goal on Saturday.
That poor run of form - now seven points behind Burnley, on whom they hold a match in hand - has led to reports chairman Tony Fernandez is considering replacing Redknapp at the helm and has lined up former Swansea boss Michael Laudrup as a replacement.
However, Redknapp, who succeeded Mark Hughes in November 2012, but could not keep QPR in the top flight last season, feels there needs to be a sense of perspective at Loftus Road.
Harry 'The Bung' Redknapp: "This is the first little blip we have had all season probably and it can happen. We have got four or five of our better players missing at the moment, and that is how it has gone.
"(But) it is all to play for.
"If we end up in the play-offs, then I still fancy us, that is how it goes.
"We had a massive turnaround, with 18 players left (in the summer), a lot of good players who left because they were earning too much money and they had to go.
"We have put a new team together and if you had said at the start of the year we would make the play-offs, I think we would have been quite happy.
"When you are up there first or second as we were, then you get disappointed when you (suddenly) lose a few games and start looking at the play-offs.
"We can still make automatic (promotion), it is not impossible."
