Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has had running battle with ex-Manchester United captain Gary Neville this week.

The pair have been embroiled in a fierce war of words this week after Neville claimed Tottenham were "spineless, soft and flaky" when he faced them as a player.

Redknapp snapped back having been in charge in north London during that time and questioned Neville's managerial record before telling him to "do his homework".

The row continued on Friday when Sky Sports pundit Neville responded by comparing his record at Valencia to that of Redknapp when he was in charge of QPR and Birmingham.

"To say that for 30 years Tottenham have been spineless, gutless, useless, disgraceful – that's absolute rubbish," Redknapp told talkSPORT.

“My argument was about the Tottenham team I had, and I will not stand by and let someone come out with a statement like that when their facts are completely wrong.

“So now he's got to dig up that his win percentage was one per cent better than mine at QPR…

“I took over a QPR team that had already played 14 games in the Premier league and they had two wins, so it wasn't exactly taking over a world class team, you know?

“And at Birmingham I took over a team that had gone 25 games and only won one, that wasn't easy.

"We all know Gary, he is an excellent pundit and was a great right-back, but he's opinionated and sometimes he goes over the top.

"He's not man enough to say: 'Yeah I was wrong, I'll hold my hand up, that team Harry had was a good team."

Redknapp then signed off from the phonecall by adding: "See you, lads. Now I'm going to hit some golf balls and I might put Gary's head on one of them!"
