Curious how no one mentions the previous manager by name in any interview, despite it being very clear who they're talking about.

Ian Holloway wasn't here for the football. He believed (and still believes) in his own hype, and we were guilty of that too, until the picture became very clear. Listening to the people who play the game, and the fans who have watched his teams over recent seasons, Holloway isn't some sort of tactical genius.

He's an idiot — and a dangerous one at that. An idiot capable of ruining careers.

Good interview, very open and honest about himself and the club.
Lets see another one for comparison in 12 months from now!

Every time he's in front of the camera you want to listen to him. He has another great talent there - he will do well after he has finished playing...

I once, from the pontoon, shouted "I love you James" to which he turned round and gave me a knowing grin....now I know why I love him, he's got our club at heart and cut the bloke in half he'd be black n white like a stick of mint Cleethorpes rock!

Whatever anyone’s criticism of Macca its impossible to argue that he doesn’t care.

This club means something to him. He’s had the balderdash to admit he’s made mistakes and that players take responsibility. It’s flipping terrifying just what sort of mess the club was in though.

Ian Holloway shouldn’t be near a football club ever again.

Interesting he name checks the buzz OP created, ya know, that thing that wasn’t important or didn’t impact anything...

A leader’s interview.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Interesting that Dave Moore wasn’t convinced by the bullsh1t artist in charge. He must have seen some unbelievable things over the last ten years.

Imagine the side eye coming in from Dave Moore. It would have sliced through Holloway every time.

What a brilliant bloke, nothing new there. We knew that anyway. He really should be looking to get away to a club that plays in a proper league. I think he would have suitors in league one and at 31 he is in his prime. He needs to make as much money as possible for the next 3/4 years. Our club has let him down by cutting corners, Holloway let him down by asking him to play like an outfield player and play from the back when it doesn't suit him. Anyway, I think he's going to stay and I've no doubt he will be the best keeper at that God awful level.

Only thing I disagree with him is the FA Trophy, I remember the players were all for it last time when the fans couldn't care less. In fact, it was a distraction as the NL moved games and the replays caused a fixture pile up. I was personally embarassed to be in the two FA Trophy finals, we lost both and I couldn't care less in all honesty. We should be a hundred percent focussed on winning that division. Returning to the FL is absolutely everything.
