"I want to thank the support I've had from Tottenham, the support from Daniel Levy," Redknapp stated. "If ever he thought there was a problem when he gave me this job - this was going on over three years ago - he would never have employed me. He knew this was a case that should never have come to court.
"I especially have to thank the fans of Tottenham - the Wigan game was the most moving I've ever felt it. To have them singing my name throughout the game, that will always be special to me. I'll never forget that.
"Five years this has been hanging over us, I'm really looking forward to getting home. It's been a nightmare, five years for a case that should never have come to court. It's unbelievable.
"It was horrendous but it was a unanimous decision, the jury were unanimous that there was no case to answer."
