Harry Redknapp finally explains THAT transfer deadline day disaster where Peter Odemwingie arrived at QPR's car park after ignoring his instructions to head for a local hotel... when a fee and wages hadn't even been discussed!

Harry Redknapp has shared the details of his biggest deadline day disaster, where Peter Odemwingie arrived at QPR's car park and was subsequently not allowed to complete his transfer from West Brom.

As the London club secretly battled to sign Odemwingie in the dying moments of the window, Redknapp told the striker to stay out of sight in a hotel near the stadium just in case the deal went through in time.

However, while QPR's team frantically sorted out the transfer against the clock, Odemwingie misunderstood Redknapp's orders and turned up at Loftus Road instead, welcomed by a glut of cameramen and reporters.
