I have been a Town fan all my life and have been going for 60 years.

I never saw ONE Ian Holloway game.

His first game was on January 4th and I badly broke my leg on January 3rd..

...and when I had recovered no fans were allowed.

As excrement as I thought it was.


And that's amongst mostly other excrement managers.

Quoted from cod_head_doug
When we played Plymouth in the re-aranged fixture in March, just before the Covid lockdown, we went into their Green Taverners Club. It is a great bar and entertainments facility that is for the Janners fans to enjoy. We were talking to some of their fans and were giving and recieving some good banter. One of their fans asked me what I thought of Holloway, I said that I could not believe he had joined Town, and if he kept his promises and got the financial backing, I was really excited for the future. He said "down here we call him Hollow words, he promised us the moon and legged it leaving us in the lurch"." They say a leopard doesnt change its spots. Now I know how the Janners must have felt, utterly betrayed.



The quote that sticks out the most is when he was doing that motivational speech in one of the schools and he said "I wanna get you in the Premier League" , never once did I think that would happen but I also bought into this fantasy of a Holloway inspired utopia and thought this guy is in it for the long run.

Then you here he hasn't actually invested a penny yet, now he won't because of the board. I've stated I've no problem with his upset at the current situation but I'm extremely angry at his departure, the nature of it and I just feel he spent the year buttering us up, praising the supporters, telling us how privileged he is to manager us and to have us as fans and then just like that he drops us like a stone and does a runner.

For me, he is now one of my disliked figures in Football. Absoute charlitan and complete bottler.

Fenty takes most of the blame but Holloway has crapped on us for an almighty height.

He's a fluffer. Tickles your balls for a while, then takes his act somewhere else.
