Harry Redknapp: 'People at Queens Park Rangers had own agendas'

Harry Redknapp suggests that other people's "agendas" at Queens Park Rangers led to his decision to leave as manager.

Harry Redknapp has suggested that part of his reason to leave Queens Park Rangers as manager was due to some people behind the scenes having their "own agendas".

The 68-year-old cited knee problems as his reason for departing Loftus Road in February, but in an interview with BBC's Football Focus, Redknapp has hinted that there was more to it.

In the closing stages of the coach's stint at QPR, rumours were rife that he could lose his job amid speculation that Tim Sherwood could step in.

"I always thought I had everyone pulling with me and suddenly I felt some were and some weren't," Redknapp said in the interview. "Behind the scenes, I always thought there were one or two people with their own agendas.

"There was talk about Tim Sherwood coming in. QPR was in the paper every day. I've been at lots of other clubs, big clubs as well where you didn't get that. That got on my nerves. That was the big problem for me.

"As soon as we lost a few games, it would begin. I always thought there was someone mischievous causing it. I'd never had that before at any club I'd been at."

Redknapp spent almost two-and-a-half years as QPR manager.
