what they said

Redknapp told talkSPORT: "Daniel [Levy] rang me late on and asked if I like Charlie Adam. I said 'yes, he's a fantastic footballer'. He said do you want him, I said 'can we get him?'.
"We pushed on and tried to do it, Daniel was confident he could get it through. It went to the wire but we missed out by minutes.
"Daniel dealt with it. Apparently the boy was definitely up for coming...apparently the chairman couldn't get hold of two shareholders who had to sign the forms as well. It's just one of those things.

So, if we are to believe 'Arry?s version:
His chairman, a Land Economy graduate, is suggesting player-acquisitions to his manager
?Arry is happy to sign players without making any form of personal contact (no telephone call, no face-to-face meeting)
And Spuds, on deadline day, were unable to make contact with shareholders whose signatures were required for player transactions.

No way to run a football club etc etc.
