......... why do people like him? I remember when some people were putting him forward as a prospective manager for Sunderland. Some folk don't seem to be able to differentiate between 'a character' and 'a bellend'. None of his totally pre-planned 'off the cuff' comments were ever remotely funny. He claims his children are profoundly deaf ........ no, you ****ing knobsack, they're just pretending! "Millwall manager Ian Holloway wants 'respect' for fans from police." http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31472596 "I don't understand. Are we so much worse? We are only treated like that by West Yorkshire Police. Why should they treat us any differently from everybody else?" FFS
He's a prat mate, I hated it when every man and his dog described him as a 'breath of fresh air' when Blackpool come up. I absolutely loved the last game of the season when we sent them down, his face on the pitch afterwards was priceless.
I hated it when people kept repeating the daft old shyte, 'Oh Ollie, tells it like it is." FFS, he's never said an honest thing in his life.
For the record i find him funny and also a character ,wouldnt say he was a breath of fresh air ,just an ordinary bloke who imo tells a good story,not very good taste either to mock his children because of their disability,Ian is also is an Honorary Patron of the anti-racist organisation Show Racism the Red Card.
By the law of averages there must be some subject, on which I could post, that you wouldn't automatically disagree with Your bias, against me, is so bitter & obvious that it's becoming pitiful ...... you're weird tbh. How am I mocking his children, you fkn dope ....... I wasn't, you're just desperate to cast me in a bad light. I don't need any help in that regard
You started this shyte ........... so, do the decent thing and explain, how am I mocking his children? Anyone with a brain can see I'm mocking Holloway and obviously not his children.. Come on then, Mr Righteous, explain.
i think its out of order as it is my right to comment on anything on an open forum,why the need to say his three deaf children are pretending, ...............as you say Some folk don't seem to be able to differentiate between 'a character' and 'a bellend'. including yourself here i think imo. thats all i have to say about it ,why dont you edit it out of the post ,just a suggestion of course
You have the right to comment but it's illogical, bitter & twisted bullshit as it often the case when you come on to have a pop at me. Edit what, I haven't said anything I don't stand by. I wasn't mocking his children, it was a joke against Holloway ffs anyone can see that. i.e. "The embarrassing clown spouts so much unfunny drivel that his clever children pretend to be deaf so he stops taking." You see it as me attacking innocent children because you're warped ..... you really need to think about your obsession.
He never fails to pull his 'I'm just one of you' shyte with each new set of supporters, how people fall for it I've no idea. He's funny by mistake not design, I can't think of one truly witty or original thing he's ever said, it's just inane rambling. "I don't understand. Are we so much worse? We are only treated like that by West Yorkshire Police. Why should they treat us any differently from everybody else?" http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co....all-violence-police-photos-released-1-2174377
Mini-Mourinho I believe he was labelled quite often when he fetched Blackpool up. I called him 'Giant-****'. I was sat laughing at him at Old Trafford as he fist pumped his heart and pointed at the Blackpool fans. Moments later out players were presented with title number 19 and a meaningless 3 points in the bag!
The point is smug they ARE deaf,just accept your effort to be funny failed with at least one poster,because i dont think your comments are appropriate its not obsession its a difference of opinion ,you think about it !
I like Holloway and always have done, he's a character something which the game is in very short supply of at the moment. People might not think he's funny, but plenty of people do. It's all about opinions at the end of the day. I think the comment about his children was unnecessary.
