QPR owner Fernandes won't stop Redknapp taking England job

QPR owner Tony Fernandes won't block Harry Redknapp from taking the England job should it be offered.

Fernandes believes that, even at the age of 67, Redknapp is still the man to take England forward.

He told the London Evening Standard: "I would, of course, hate to lose Harry. But I am not going to stand in the way of someone's dream. Harry will make a great England manager. But that's beyond my control.

"How do you stop Harry from being England manager? You are sad, disappointed but you have got to be realistic, you've got to be philosophical."
