Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp hit out at the "filth" and abuse
directed at him by Aston Villa fans during his side's 3-1 win at
Villa Park.
Redknapp was seen to be involved in exchanges with Villa fans in
the enclosure behind the Pompey dug-out.
He said: "You've got people saying stuff behind you with little
kids shouting filth. I didn't bring my kids up to talk like
that.
"Do we have to keep standing there and accepting that?"
Redknapp added: "It didn't happen when I went with my dad to watch
Arsenal play every Saturday. There was none of this sort on
nonsense going on.
"Maybe I shouldn't get upset but I do.
"What hurts me the most is when I see someone going at it, when
they have got their little son by their side.
"He can talk how he wants to me but doing it in front of his lad
and making filthy gestures just stinks. Maybe it is a reflection on
society."
