from 'the secret footballer's' blog
That aside, I have been told by more than one player at the club that one decision in particular last season angered Daniel Levy, the club chairman, beyond redemption. After Norwich City had held Arsenal 3-3 at the Emirates Stadium, Tottenham needed to beat Aston Villa to all but secure third spot.
With the score at 1-1, Rednapp made a change. But instead of the extra striker that was needed to grab a vital winner, he threw on Scott Parker and played for the draw. A few people have told me that there were strong words in the Tottenham camp after that incident and that relations between manager and chairman were never quite the same again.
if this is how it actually happened
That is a bit harsh on Redknapp tbf. Danny Rose had been sent off and Bale was running the left wing on his own.
Spurs could and maybe should have still won, but Parker came on to allow a bit of security for Bale to go for it hard in injury time, otherwise we could have pricked them on the counter.
