Young Somerset football players in surprise meeting with legendary manager

YOUNG Somerset footballers were surprised and delighted when a legend of the game turned up to watch them play.

Former West Ham, Tottenham and Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp was among the crowd as Paulton Rovers under-15s were playing at Writhlington, near Radstock, on Saturday (November 23).

It is understood Harry was there to watch Tunley FC, who he is working with after the side won a competition.

Despite suffering a defeat, the young Paulton players got the chance to cheer themselves up by meeting a legend, who was happy to pose for pictures and perhaps offer some top tips.
