QPR boss Redknapp ditches club suit for change of luck

QPR boss Harry Redknapp is ditching his club suit on matchday as he seeks a change of luck.

Redknapp, who admits he is superstitious, has now canned his usual attire in the hope it will bring him some much-needed good fortune.

He said: "I've ditched my club suit this week. The suit, the shirt and the tie. They've all gone this week. I'm serious.

"I've stayed with the wife for 45 years, I really don't want to ditch her as she's the best thing in my life. After that I've ditched everything else.

"It's stupid. When I was at Bournemouth I wore a club suit and I think we went about 26 games unbeaten.

"It used to walk to the ground on it's own. What does it have to do with anyone scoring a goal? Nothing really, but I'm silly like that. I've always been this way.

"If you win you wear the suit the next week and if you lose then it's the fault of the suit. It's crazy really.

"But I don't think I've been lucky this last year. First Chelsea won the Champions League which cost Spurs a place, then it's gone on from there."
