Portsmouth boss Redknapp looking forward to Cup draw

Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp is looking forward to the FA Cup semifinals draw.

Redknapp said: "We will see what comes up, it cannot be any worse than this draw."

He recalled having a feeling of dread after being paired with United in the quarter-finals.

"I was enjoying a game of golf on the day of the draw," said Redknapp. "I had been playing okay. Then I phoned Peter Storrie (chief executive) to see who we had been paired with.

"At the time I had an eight-iron in my hand. He went 'Manchester United' and the club went further than the ball!"
