no not Woo, but woooooooooo apparently this is what Blackpool have been for too long according to Holloway.

 

You want to hate him after his Rooney rant but then he comes out with something like that and he turns round and takes full responsiblity for his sides defeat at Brum. Are you listening Roy?

 

Love him, hate him, whatever, he's good entertainment you have to say.

 

Anyone got a vid of that "drunk girl in the taxi" analogy he came up with at Plymouth? That was gold.

Probably because it was fucking pathetic and childish. He actually said that the club "owns" the player. It was fucking clueless.

 

I like Holloway. But the Rooney thing was embarrassing.

 

And massively hypocritical. From Mediawatch on Football365:

 

Everybody Loves Ollie

Everyone loves Ian Holloway, don't they? With his kerraaazzee talk and funny voice. Not Mediawatch, who tired of it some time ago.

 

We were therefore delighted to read (not watch or listen to - especially after he started shouting for no good reason) his latest round of comments on the issue of player contracts and loyalty.

 

Holloway said: "I've got big problems with the people who are running football. I know the reasons I think the game is in trouble and you cannot have a Bosman ruling they've got at the moment...

 

"And if he (Wayne Rooney) sees his contract out he's going to be able to walk out of there for nothing. That's the people at the very top of the game's fault."

 

And that was just the edited version. We've spared you the rest.

 

Interesting then, that one Dekel Keinan chose to run down his contract at Maccabi Haifa last summer.

 

Reported The Jerusalem Post in July: 'The 25-year-old Keinan, who has been an integral part of the Haifa defense since the 2006/07 season, refused to renew his contract at the club last season and is expected to move to Europe on a free transfer in the coming weeks.'

 

And we're sure you all know who Keinan eventually signed for.

 

In addition, if Mediawatch were Rooney we wouldn't be keen on any lectures from Mr Holloway. This, after all, is the man who proclaimed his love for all things Plymouth and dismissed talk of him leaving for the brighter lights of Leicester as 'poppycock' and 'pathetic', a whopping two days before leaving for the brighter lights of Leicester in 2007.
