Well he is definitely is an idiot but the article refers to one player's name he got wrong (maybe just about forgivable...), then some fans got upset because he referred to them as "Plymouth" (and presumably not "Argyle" as they would have liked).

If you're gonna slate him then slate him for sending Town on the road to oblivion not for getting a name wrong.

He couldn't even get that right as we have now turned a corner and heading in the right direction. New owners, a new squad, and a feel-good factor.

In a sarcastic sort of way he was the best thing that happened to the club in near on 20 years. If he had stayed think where we'd be now, probably above Dover and odds on favorites for a local Derby with Boston!

With a special mention for Alex May.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I totally agree with you, it was just an after thought that if he had not gone, where would we be now. Would 1878 have taken over or would JF have hung on thinking olloway would turn things round ????  

I was merely pointing out what might have happened if he had not resigned. I absolutely detest what Holloway, Fenty and Day have done to this club over the years. Stripped it to the bone.

I thought he left because of the new owners.

As to where we would be, we would still be in this crap League as he was taking us down and Hurst did.

The only possible positive of Hollowords was that he helped confirm the shambles that was the GTFC boardroom.

There was a rumour at the time that Runaway was actually sacked but to maintain his image, he ran with the resignation story. The club was already such a circus by this point so the theory was they let it be.

Forget him. Something weird going on there but maybe we'll never know. Seemed to lose interest and made barmy signings. But in all honesty, he was irrelevant as while JSF was still the owner we were always doomed. Both gone, balderdash to them and let's move forward and try and forget them.
