Holloway hanging by a thread...? 15:42 - Dec 10 with 29149 viewscoolranger

Regardless of the result today at relegation doomed Rotherham (who have not won in 14, always a good time to play QPR), I think I'm watching Holloway on the very edge.

I watched perhaps half a dozen of Holloway interviews over the last month or so. What I see and hear is an endless rambling about 'passion', 'dying for the club' and 'transforming the culture'.

The England FA rant about 'who are ya, I mean who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, who are you, - I mean c'mon on. What on earth was all that about?

Nothing personal against Holloway. He did great last time for us, and remains popular. I just find him far far too desperate, almost incoherent in his enthusiasm.

I reckon we'll lose or perhaps draw today at Rotherham. Then what? His appointment almost smacks of 'we've tried everything else, and that hasn't worked, let's go back to an old friend who knows the club and try him...'.

Just feel increasingly uneasy that this latest experiment may end in tears.

We have to stick with him until next season or else we'll look like, and will be, actual tw@ts.

Always a sketchy appointment but he deserves a chance.

I don't agree and I think you're either reading too much into his rants, which he's always done so no change there, or you're looking for faults with him. He talks a lot more sense now than he ever has, for example he's already identified that we lack talkers on the pitch, that we are mentally weak particularly when we go behind, he's been talking a lot about getting us into good habits from which results will be a by-product. He's using formations to get square pegs in square holes. That's all positive stuff in my opinion. He needs time to implement changes and bring in players to rectify the problems we have.

However I agree with your observation about the clubs approach to his appointment, it was the same after Redknapp when we went for the complete opposite in Ramsey, what we needed then was someone in-between, not a complete novice but also up-and-coming. We then got that in Hasselbaink but that didn't work out and was boring so now we've gone for Holloway who's the complete opposite of Hasselbaink in that respect, hopefully it'll work this time though.

We looked like tw@ts when we appointed him can't look any worse when he eventually gets sacked or walks.

To be fair to Holloway he identified our problem straight away, we can't score goals (hopefully we score in the 2nd half)

Maybe he has someone in mind in the January sales, or we're doomed

I don't know guys. I've followed this club for ever. WE just seem to generally repeat ourselves, year after year, manager after manager.

I just watch and listen to Holloway and see someone who doesn't seem at peace with himself. It all just seems 'desperate'.

If we lose to Rotherham today I think that will tell us an awful lot. These guys have won ONE game all season. ONE. ONE.

I loved Ollie last time. Just worry when I see and hear him now.

Well watch his interviews. I've had neutral mates watch them and shake their heads.

He's lost it. Listen and watch him. It's just sheer desperation.

Die for this club? Oh for heaven's sake. Just go out there and make them play a little better so we can be in the Championship next season. I'd be very happy with that.

The fact that Rotherham have already scored suggests we won't win today.

I mean TWO goals in a game? C'mon... how often do Rangers manage that?

Then don't watch his interviews!

Or do we need to get Briatore back? Now there was a bloke who could fire managers!

Well read your posts. I've had neutral mates read them and shake their heads.

You've lost it. You're looking for faults. It's just sheer desperation.

He's had 3 games. Oh for heaven's sake. Just come on here and be a bit more positive so we don't have to read this drivel next week. I'd be very happy with that.

In Bristol accent...

"What we need is pashan roit? Pashan! PLayeeerrrrs ready to DIE for this great shirt, I mean DIE for this great hooped shirt.

Formation? When we haven't got the ball roit, we ALL defend. And when we have the ball roit, we ALL ATTACK and ATTACK until we either score or die."

Oh dear.

Can we pleeeeese, just score ONE goal today and make sure we don't concede again. So then we pick up a vital point from the worst performing side in the entire Football League.

Can just see the post-match interview now (if 1-1):

"AAAh well, we can build on this. Treeemendus fightback, fantastic, so much pashan from the boys blah blah blah, Rotherham is a really tough place to come too blah blah blah" - Tough? C'mon. Wake up. Easiest away game of the season this, QPR should win here 2-0 or perhaps 3-1. Minimum.

Far too many excuses. Part of the problem with this club, always laying the blame off.
Meanwhile Rotherham pick up their eighth point in 20 games.

Not a wind up guys. I just don't see where this is going.

I repeat, I've watched and listened to Holloway on interview. If I had employed him I would be seriously concerned. He comes across almost incoherent.

Media love him because he gives them soundbites, but when you really watch and listen... it's just an incoherent ramble.
