Redknapp: I don't want to know what Twitter is
QPR boss Harry Redknapp claims he does not know what Twitter is after Rio Ferdinand was banned for using the word 'sket' on the social media platform.
The R's defender has been banned for three matches and fined £25,000 for using 'sket', meaning "promiscuous girl or woman".
"We've not seen the report from the FA so we can't really comment on it, to understand what he has done," Redknapp stated in his press conference.
"I'll have to sit down with chief executive Philip Beard and chairman Tony Fernandes and talk about the possibility of an appeal when we have the report.
"Rio does know how to behave off the pitch. There are not many professionals better than Rio. But I am not in position to talk about it, because I have not seen any details."
Redknapp, 67, admits his grasp on social media is not a strong one, and explaining that it's not up to the club to manage a player's Twitter output..
"As far as I see it a personal thing rather than something that should affect a club.
"I don't know what Twitter is, I don't want to know to be honest. It doesn't interest me one little bit. If I understood it I might be able to talk about it."
