QPR boss Redknapp: I was ready to walk away

QPR boss Harry Redknapp admits he came close to quitting last season.

Redknapp says he would've walked away if they'd been beaten in the playoff final against Derby County.

"If we hadn't gone up this year I would have turned it in," he conceded.

"I would have definitely packed up. I wouldn't have gone back and done another year in the Championship, it didn't appeal to me any more.

"If we had got beat I would have turned it in, definitely.

"With 10 minutes to go I was thinking 'what golf club should I join this year - should I play here or there?' and then suddenly Bobby ruined it all."
