Holloway hanging by a thread...? 15:42 - Dec 10 with 26701 viewscoolranger

Regardless of the result today at relegation doomed Rotherham (who have not won in 14, always a good time to play QPR), I think I'm watching Holloway on the very edge.

I watched perhaps half a dozen of Holloway interviews over the last month or so. What I see and hear is an endless rambling about 'passion', 'dying for the club' and 'transforming the culture'.

The England FA rant about 'who are ya, I mean who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, - I mean c'mon on. What on earth was all that about?

Nothing personal against Holloway. He did great last time for us, and remains popular. I just find him far far too desperate, almost incoherent in his enthusiasm.

I reckon we'll lose or perhaps draw today at Rotherham. Then what? His appointment almost smacks of 'we've tried everything else, and that hasn't worked, let's go back to an old friend who knows the club and try him...'.

Just feel increasingly uneasy that this latest experiment may end in tears.

If the four games consist of three defeats and one win where we were hanging on in the last 10 minutes against a team that played the whole game with 10 men then I think we can make a judgement


OK, so we sack IH, and the next manger loses first 3 games, then what sack him and repeat?

Except it isn't

He's identified we are poor defending oppo throws, he's identified we stop playing if we go one down, he's identified what we are lacking and he knows what players he wants to develop.


Theres been loads of nuggets in his interviews about how he wants to play - not incoherent at all.


It's incoherent if you've already made your mind up that he's incoherent and incompetent. Then you can only hear the bits that fit that mindset.

Facts are irrelevant these days, changing your position is a sign of weakness.

I have the best opinions, other opinions are for the losers and haters. If people are getting angry and infuriated with me, that must mean I'm winnning.

So when it okay to start questioning Ollies abilities. Why is every criticism being met with accusations of being a troll or not supporting the club. I really do not understand this cult of worshiping on the altar of Holloway where criticism is not allowed.

He built a promotion winning team from absolutely nothing at QPR... He took Blackpool to the Prem (yes that's right Blackpool). They were within 1 point of staying in the Prem (yes that's right Blackpool with a maximum wage of 10K a week). He won promotion at Palace.
I know he's had downs as well as ups but to question his ability is misguided IMHO.

Hopefully Derby's arse kicking of Forest today will leave them too tired to beat us on Wednesday.

I'm not saying Ollie is beyond reproach or criticism, there were a plethora of trolls on last night and they are best not fed. That is all.

We had the biggest budget in the division when he got us promoted second behind Plymouth. Blackpool he did a fantastic job, Palace were top after his second game and only just made the playoffs after a run of no wins in 10.

I don't feel that he is the right man for the job and there's a real danger of us going down. Alternatives I don't know, we decided to twist when we sacked JFH and now we are bust. I accept when cannot keep changing managers but it doesn't mean I have to like it.

You don't feel he is the right man, so just going to "not Like it" till ?

Criticism of results is fine, I'm hardly overjoyed myself, but to say as some on here and on other forums that he's just a walking sound bite who isn't a manager & is "incoherent" is ridiculous - as is calling for ANY manager, let alone ours to go after 4 games!

That's the whole point of my argument. Instead of thought out rational points to support your opinion, make personal put downs and finish with the old standby of support someone else.

Just whinging that you think he is not the right man and will keep on. not liking it. gets you that responce.

When you come up with sensible solutions I'm happy to debate them.

Go on give it a try with your thought out rational points ?

And hopefully Villa score so many in their next fixture they become sick of goals, they deliberately miss against us 😂

It hasn't gone well at all bar the Norwich game but we never get a manager bounce or haven't for the last 3/4 appointments maybe we should be thinking why that is ?

Brilliant stuff here, 3 and a half games in and the calls for the manager go begin. Well done everyone, you've exceeded yourself this time


I think they might need to get a few other interests going. I find having something else in your life besides Rangers works wonders...
