Ian Holloway - been here before

I was just listening to SkySports and James Featherstone was on (Agent).

I googled him and came across an article where he was involved with the Charlie Adam to Liverpool / Spurs bid last summer - IH then got involved and started his usual antics.

This is v similar with our approach to Matt Phillips - we said we spoke with IH and their Chairman - same as last year with Charlie Adam.

If we sign him or not I really hope we sue the odius little ****er for slander.

Holloway's idea of an illegal approach is somewhat different to everyone elses
He sees anyone making an enquiry not instigated by him or his friendly agents as illegal ie " unwanted" and makes such a fuss that it scares people off. Sure NC is made of stronger stuff

 

We should put a bid in for Tom Ince as well,to really piss him off.

 

I'd actually prefer Ince to Phillips at the moment...

 

Ian hollow ays perception of tapping up is; any team that isn't managed by him, bidding for one of his players.

 

I can not believe that Ince was released by Liverpool only 1 and half years ago. Are they ****ing blind? the kid has quality, yet they but that donkey Downing when they have Ince in the youth team. Unfuckingbelievable

 

Hay Tottonsaint!Love your style
Would love to see Holloways blood pressure if we did
Must be pretty bad as Swansea appear to be sniffing about Tom Ince

 

My guess is it's his attitude not his ability. His Dad was a hothead in his youth I recall.

 

He may have been but with the boy's talent and Nigel to coerce the best from him he could be the answer to our prayers.

 

Yes not saying he would be a bad signing just guessing why Liverpool offloaded him.

 

The man's an ass - I hope his chairman can't resist the offers and sells Ince and Phillips from under Holloway's nose, just to see him actually explode live on TV

 

As I remember Ince was part of the Charlie Adam deal.

 

I like Holloway , he entertains , when he was Plymouth manager , said the lighthouse should be Green and White hoops !!!

 

My understanding is that Liverpool wanted to keep Ince but wouldn't allow him back out on loan until he signed a new contract, as he was in his last year. So, he waited till his contract expired and Blackpool snapped him up. I think Ince didn't want to sign a new contract as he didn't believe Liverpool would play him.

 

Well, regardless whether we get Ince/Phillips I think the Emmanuel Mayuka or Rameriez shows the class of player we are really looking for ad the money we will spend for the right player. I am not convinced we were totally serious about Phillips - I mean I think he was back up for Rameriez and to force the hand of Bologna...

 

looks like Liverpool got ****ed royaly on that deal , changed a Ferarri for a Fiat and still had to pay a few million for the deal, takes me back to the good old days of us screwing over Blackburn

 

Gosh I forgot about that! Didnt we charge the £7m for Davies then buy him back for £1.5 or something - and got Beattie in the deal fro £1m???

 

those were the day, then we flogged them The Eagle as well

 

could be that they feel Sterling is a better prospect!
