so we're out of order for putting a low offer in on adam, yet he's now admitted he did the same with DJ Campbell???

"We offered a £100k for him, ended up paying £1m"

SO what's the difference?

Houllier was using his press conference to have a dig at holloway for not going through the proper channels to tell the club adam isn't for sale or what ever. Holloway wanted to use the press and show Houllier up. Now when our manager plays the same game, Holloway wants to throw his dummy out.

Get a grip! I'm already bored of it. To a point where when he comes on the tv from now on, i'm switching the channel

It honestly sounds to me like we've been the most interested party, and Holloway is fucked off we won't increase our bid, whilst simultaneously kissing Dalglish's arse in the hope they increase their bid.

His "we are above them in the league" reason is slowly vanishing. Wonder what's next? They don't have a beach or a tower?

Our beach by the library was a lot cleaner than their one!

Blackpool is a shithole. Why can't a nice seaside town's team with adequate seating capacity for away fans get promoted?

the BBC article... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/9373804.stm

Quote
Holloway also hit back at Aston Villa boss Gerard Houllier, who was unhappy with criticism from the Blackpool boss for the Midlands club's pursuit of Adam.

"I don't talk about other teams' players," said Holloway. "Mr Houllier didn't do that. He said they had made an offer and we hadn't got back to him and Charlie is really good. What is that to do with him? How unsettling is that?"

James Milner said a while back that he asked for a payrise when Newcastle priced him out of a move to Villa back in 2007.

I don't have much truck with those trying to defend the rights of overpaid footballers, but he had a point.

If Adam is worth £10/12/16 million, or whatever magic number Holloway can think of tomorrow, pay him a salary commensurate with that.  When a 25 year old is on a salary that would now be poor for most Championship players, his valuation and the price other clubs are prepared to pay will reflect that.

Personally, I'd like to see us nab Adam in the last few hours of deadline day. Holloway can talk all the shite he likes, but I reckon his Chairman -his boss- would bite at say £6.5 million. Leave the fucker scrambling about without his best player and with no time to get a replacement.

Very good.  We were talking about this pillock in the Marquee at Wigan and quite frankly he is driving everybody crazy.  Go away please, Mr Holloway.

This carrot crunching prat's getting a bore now, every day he's got something new to say.  Don't want Gerry to get in a slanging match with him but when he's disgracefully belittling our club the truth needs to be told. 

Shame for the combine harvester driving muppet that his best chance to date (both playing and managing) at a reasonable size club (Leicester) resulted in relegation.  I think that's still grating with him.

I so much want Blackpool to be relegated, losing Adam would help.

Make it so.

Adam staying at Blackpool until the end of the season, with Blackpool going down regardless, and then leaving for next to nothing in the summer is probably what Holloway deserves after the way he's been going on over the past month.

I want them relegated WITH Adam, followed by him leaving for a Bolton or a Stoke for a million because he can't stomach Holloway.

I'm surprised his head didn't explode after they should have had a penalty at 2-0 last night.

I can see Adam staying there until the end of the season and then going for £5M somewhere.

Agree with all of that.

I think Holloway would actually explode if we do sign him for around the £5m mark, so I just hope Sky have cameras there for it.

It's all about value, we thought Bent was worth £18M to us and luckily Sunderland agreed.

Adam is currently worth more to Blackpool than anyone is willing to pay, once Blackpool have stayed up that value might be different.

Hmmmm.

Sportinglife.com

Swindon boss Danny Wilson says Charlie Austin will not be joining Blackpool, as they have failed to meet the Robins' valuation of the player.
