0% villa- ian holloway
« on: October 22, 2010, 10:20:47 AM »
JuSt watched a fabulous press conference again by holloway on sky- reminded me of watching cloughie in his pomp as he spoke controversially but truthfully about referees and FIFA-how refreshing to see a manager come out and say what he really thinks no matter what.

Do posters on here share my views or see him as a bit of a nutter ?

I saw him do an interview last night on Sky about the Rooney thing, he made a bit of a fool of himself.

I like him.

Haven't seen the Rooney comments, but it's refreshing to see a Manager who says it as it is and with humour.

Football needs the Holloways of this world.

Decent bloke, his book is good.

Needs to be mindful of not becoming a rent-a-mouth for Sky.

I quite like him, but he is a bit too rent-a-quote at times. I'd probably get a bit sick of it if I supported a club he was at, I bit like I started to with Gregory.

I enjoyed his book though, and it was only a quid from one the cheapo shops in town. I mean the Holloway book, not the Gregory one. Although the Gregory one was all right as well. Much better than the shite by Merson. I think i'll stop rambling and hit the post button now. Whooops, that was the preview button, I think this one is the

Both.  I think he's a complete mentalist and I really like him.

Normally I like Olly (and not just because he sounds  a bit like me) but this rant was completely nonsensical

We need people like him in the game - give me a rant like that any day over the bland and media trained monotiny of most of them
