How much of Blackpool's success this season has been down to the 'Holloway Factor'?

 

Players who have been under-achievers at other clubs, seemed to have blossomed under Holloway. Charlie Adams didn't do a lot at Rangers, D.J. Campbell was dog shite at other clubs. Other players at the club have also performed above their 'level.

 

Brian Clough had a similar influence - how many players could only really play for Cloughie? John Robertson and Gary Birtles are 2 that spring to mind.

 

I am not putting Holloway on the same level as Clough, but he must have something?

Not just me then. His bumpkin ramblings and media love in piss me off as much as Redknapp. He talks utter shite, but because he's a 'character' hes the best manager around.

 

I hope him and his novelty team sink without fookin trace.

 

a bit harsh...

 

 

 

but completely correct.

Amazed at what some people call success. I predicted Blackpool would go down and still believe they will. The DMB's third string would be good enough to pan them.

 

If by some miracle, they survive, next season will be a shocker for them.

 

I'd like to see them sink without trace too (along with their tacky, kiss-me-quick town).

In one.

I don't actually believe Holloway is a good manager. If he was half decent he would not carry on with the all out attack leaving yourselves wide open when you are 2 nil up away from home. I agree it is entertaining for the neutral but sometimes you have to protect what you already have.
