Wherever he goes looks like Blackpool are in freefall and dropping like a stone - GH due on ssn shortly as well. Holloway has brought the attention on adam himself with his constant ravings and now he must take the consequences.

Interesting....

from what i've seen of Adam, he looks a good player,
 but i would say no better than Bannan will be shortly, and he might stifle bannans devolpment, i would stick with bannan, like tonyd says

the way he controlled the midfield against man utd, i'd say he isnt far of a first team place anyway given a bit more experience

i was in the pub with some man utd fans on sunday night, i said we might be in for Carrick in the summer, they said no probs straight swop for bannan, they all really rated him, which is supprising as they dont normaly rate anyone only there own


He scored a Hat trick against Man Utd reserves

Houllier on ssn very unhappy with ian holloways behaviour and the things he's said.,saying holloway has spouted in press but has treated dalglish totally different to him and it's very unfair.

We put in a bid in the correct way and it was holloway who went to the press and talked about it-houllier looked pretty angry About it all!

Adams ?

Remember Sidwell
I'm at a loss as to why people make that comparison.
Totally different midfielders.


ultimately players are like snowdrops, no two are ever the same
If it's a snow comparison you're after, I'd say Sidwell is like the not to be trodden on, yellow snow.
I think he means snow flakes and not the flowers lol

Indeed, I think it is going to get messy and Holloway probably knows this, so he is hanging on to his best player to get the most money and look as good as he can.

I'd prefer honda in the free role, ash and downing wide and makoun and stanny holding the midfield together. Delph can take over from stan over the next 18 months and give us the left footed balance Adam would.

Saying that I wouldn't mind adam, I just really like honda. He could be what ireland should have.

Warnocks last match?

"Stephen Warnock will not play but that is a football decision".

Is this manager speak for "he's played like a c*** all season so I've dropped him".

It must go a bit deeper than the Dunne argument, it's a shame as there is a good player in there somewhere.

I do, I also remember Young and Milner.




So do I and if you weren't so keen to jump on the 'save Mons arse bandwagon' you'd understand perhaps, that I meant they were both Championship players who had a good Prem season and moved on, not very successfully.
No matter

But they haven't both moved on "not very successfully" though, have they? Adam is still at Blackpool and so unless you're Dr Who you can't possibly know how his move turns out.
