I will not be upset if Ollie takes to the QPR rudder again. Not everyone's cup of tea but I feel he can and will inject some much needed passion and carictar back into the R's
It could have been a lot worse lets not forget. I will always trust him at leas,t to have the best interest of the Club at heart. I suspect that this will be until the summer anyway, unless he and Mark really do well in the rest of the season. Look forward to the Bird pulling analogies at the very least! Up the Rrrss
Holloway failed miserably at Leicester. Took a year off, traveling and studying different clubs and coaching methods. Reinvented himself and came back with a more attacking mindset. Did very well at Blackpool, entertaining football, still very direct approach but much more easy on the than what we remember from his last spell with us. No more hoofing it up to Marc Nygaard, no more playing George Santos up front. Think it could work short term for us, not convinced that he'll take us to the next level, but I'll leave him plenty of room to convince me. One of my boyhood heroes returning, can't feel down about that. Ian Hollowaaaaaaaaaay!!!!
And walked out of his last but one job at Palace in Keegan style saying he 'wasn't up to it' and then. Got Millwall relegated. Hung around talking gibberish on Sky since. I like him, he's a laugh, but a seriously backward step unless it is stop gap only, until Clarence Seedorf is free.
I'd behappy enough if Ollie returned , but let's face it, it would be a very lazy appointment in my opinion. Les hadn't really done any work to find the best possible manager has he?
We will just have to wait and see the deal Ollie is offered if and when it happens. Maybe it will be short term until the favoured target is out of contract perhaps, who knows.
I think this is the first time EVER I have disagreed with you. About anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well we're all entitled to one mistake. I hope you learn from it. Don't do it again.
they did interview others and Rowett was their first choice so not sure I agree it's lazy. Sherwood would have been the laziest choice. I think they recognise he need for a manager I think a bit of character.
At least we can look forward to cheaper season tickets in league 1 next year, if Holloway does become manager it shows lack of ambition in my view! If that's the case then why not sell up to someone who wants to push the club on.
It's all very well us bleating about ambition and caviar but how enticing a prospect are we to a potential manager? 17th in the League, wealthy but unable to spend, an impatient fanbase, a squad with no proven goalscorer or creative midfielder. Maybe Holloway is the realistic choice.
It was great when Ollie was dragging us out of League One. But what about his departure? Should we be worried that he puts his career above his club, even when it's QPR?
