Blackpool boss Ian Holloway on Rovers radar

Ian Holloway
BLACKBURN Rovers are mulling over making an audacious approach for Blackpool boss Ian Holloway – but the Seasiders would fight tooth and nail to keep their man at Bloom-field Road.
As the prospect of luring Shebby Singh’s favoured can-didate Tim Sherwood to Ewood Park continues to look unlikely, with Spurs desperate to keep him on their coaching staff, Holloway has emerged on the radar as a potential alternative.
The Bristolian and Sherwood are understood to be only two of a number of names on Rovers’ shortlist, but the former is believed to be the preferred choice of sections of the club’s hierarchy.
Holloway is not the unan-imous favourite though within the club as exploratory moves are still being made in an attempt to narrow down the short list, with the interviewing stage still yet to start.
Rovers have yet to make any other official approaches to clubs since an initial move to talk to Sherwood was knocked back by Spurs two weeks ago, with it looking increasingly likely caretaker boss Eric Black will be at the helm for Saturday’s trip to Derby County.
Going after Holloway would prove a popular move among sections of the Ewood Park faithful, with the Blackpool boss topping the Lancashire Telegraph’s readers poll with 20 per cent of the vote almost a fortnight ago.
But Seasiders chairman Karl Oyston will be determined to hang on to the man who transformed his club’s fortunes on a shoestring budget and sources close to him believe he would deny Rovers permission to speak to Holloway – if an approach was to be made.
Holloway is on a 12-month rolling contract and is treated as Blackpool's 'crown jewels' and it is understood he would have to attempt to force a move for it to happen.
The 49-year-old was linked with the job when Sam Allardyce was sacked at the start of Venky's reign and he quickly dismissed it as he also hit out at Rovers' poultry giant owners.
He said in December 2010: “I know I've got a few chickens but it is ridiculous to link me with that. It is absolute rubbish.”
“It seems an absolute load of nonsense (Allardyce's sacking), but they own the club, they can do what they like and they have obviously done it,'' Holloway said.
"For me, they obviously don't know what football is about because a good manager like that with a great track record, and where they are in the league, it is not easy. Not everyone can do it and I hope it doesn't backfire on them.
"Sam has a proven track record of how he does things. Good luck to them, that's all I'd like to say. None of it makes sense, but maybe football doesn't.''
Holloway has grown increasingly frustrated at a lack of funds available at Blackpool though and, despite buying a new property on the Fylde Coast , is believed to be ready to move on if the right job is made available.
I'm realistic about where we are, but I want to keep moving forward,' he said. 'I'm even more determined to be a success.
'There's something special about this club, it seems to just fit me perfectly.
'I'll keep going, I believe in what we are doing, and we won't stop working hard. If we keep doing that, who knows where we'll end up."

I suppose Rovers could offer him a welcome golden parachute payment to compensate , I hope he has his own coaching staff , otherwise the "coaching team" we have right now will drag him down to their level..

In addition he knows what it takes to get up from this division.
Granted he comes witha swift releagtion from the premier division too, but that can be rectified, if he is provided with cash to keep us up.

Seems he did.
I dont think Venkys will pay compo when there are freebie choices on the menu.
Shame because he would galvanise the club.
And us supporters would at least be kept in the picture because he tells it like it is .... with little diplomacy..... another reason Venkys would shy away.

Holloway is a top choice. But he is a man who speaks his mind - aka comments on BFS sacking. I think I remember at the time this forum being full of 'you dont know what you are talking about Holloway' type comments.

3 to get your money on:
Black
Shearer
Flitcroft
Very very sad, but most of us said before "IF they ever did get rid of Kean would any real experienced manager take on the job?" The answer is no. The only option is an ex player wanting to get into managment or another number 2 or manager from the lower leagues.
The above option will not get us anywhere near the play offs and could potentially see us in another relegation dog fight.
The downward spiral continues I'm afraid. I hope I'm wrong.

I'd love to see Holloway here, just for the spirit&passion he shows, but I doubt very much it'll happen because he has passed comment on Sam A's sacking, and has very forthright opinions on most things. He certainly doesn't tick the "I'm a brown nosed , @rselicking, Yes Man" box that will be on the application form sent out by the club under these owners.
All that said, most people involved in football don't know the meaning of loyalty so if Rovers offer a big enough wedge, I'm sure he'll tell 10-bob millionaire Oyston that its time for the challenge of a big club and its been nice knowing you.
House in Lytham, sets the alarm bells ringing though, too close to that thieving, lie-ridden, useless 5cumbag Hendry.
Like other posters have said if by a small miracle he can't resist the smell of the cash&takes the short trip down the M55, I hope he is allowed to manage properly and get his own coaches in. The sight of that pasty faced blonde haired Scottish alecan fraudster sat in the dugout , doing fu.ck all every game is really winding me up

Not entirely sure Holloways success will continue away from Blackpool. A lot of managers (Coyle) thrive at one club and fail at others. I can't understand why Clemente and Schuster arn't the main links, these are world class managers offering (apparently) to take the job and were discussing whos best from Shearer, Sherwood and Holloway? Somethings wrong.

wing does it? Unless he is waiting for Mourinho to throw his hat in the ring?! It is a cert that Bolton and the Dingles will hire before us, I am just hoping the news that OGS turned down the chance to talk to Gartside is a hint he may be more interested in us? God I hope so or very quickly people are going to be hoping for a loss on Saturday to keep Black away from the managers office.
Holloway will not say yes to us, they might offer him money but he is on a sweet deal at Blackpool, loved by the fans and board, nice little commission on player transfers and probably a better chance of promotion at Blackpool as well.

.. You can 'urge' all you like but can you see a respectable manager wanting the job????

My preference is simple a good HONEST hard working manager with experience.

It is reported that the Board cannot even agree on their first choice.
Just like the sacking / resignation of Steve Kean the Board cannot make a firm swift decision - its an absolute shambles.
Just how long does it take to draw up a shortlist of suitable managers and discuss?
Shebby asked the fans to be patient but how long can the club remain in limbo?
Our Caretaker Manager has a record of 2 draws from 3 games - thats 7 possible points dropped which will be vital at the end of the season.
Come on - show some urgency!!
Get OGS in now before he goes elsewhere.

I cannot believe Mick McCarthy's name is being touted around on here did noone actually notice him whe he was stood there incapable of doing anything to arrest Wolves going down? Do we want someone like that? I prefer Mark Hughes back so if he gets the boot at QPR we should make a move but Holloway is also a good manager and speaks it as it is so he will make a change from Kean wont he?Love to know why Ole Gunnar is not mentioned by BWFC or us in the search anymore.
Holloway would be a breath of fresh air but 1) I can't see him coming to Rovers, 2) does he have a plan B (as one poster on here has previously questioned) aside from all-out attack ?

Shebby is Global Advisor (not chairman) and has said that his remit is to get Rovers promoted this season. It follows, therefore, that HE WILL NOT AND INDEED CANNOT ALLOW A MANAGER TO HAVE FULL CONTROL OF FOOTBALLING MATTERS AT ROVERS. If he did, Shebby would no longer be able to directly influence the direction of the club. And he would, in effect, be handing over his Global Advisor remit.
IMHO, no manager worth his salt will want his every daily decision scrutinised by someone with the power to say "Don't do that. Do something else." Normally the owners are not so intrusive and allow the manager to take care of all footballing matters until such time as results don't match their expectations. But the Global Advisor, even if Shebby says he is only there to support the manager, can be a pain in the arse and intervene at any time at all.
I cannot see anybody but a desperate yes-man taking on such a manager's role. Even yes-man Kean didn't want it. So when Shebby says they are compiling a shortlist of the right 'type' of manager, I think that 'type' has got to be someone who will accept Shebby's power to be able to override or suggest otherwise at any time.
Venky's have allowed someone with no practical experience of English league football to run things. This is no better than JA running things. I can see manager contract negotiations dragging on for months and months because no manager with any self-respect or common sense will want to work in that kind of a setup. I hope I am wrong but things are increasingly looking Black.

I have said it before on here though that if Black decides he wants to throw his name in the hat, he knows it will only take a couple more of the dreadful performances like against Wolves and he will have the fans against him within weeks. He wouldn't want that, nor has he the down right disregard for the supporters or blatant 'in denial' attitude as the woeful liar Steve Kean. I would be happy to see Holloway as manger but he had/has nothing to lose at Blackpool. Rovers are a different kettle of fish.
They are desperate for Eric Black to win a couple of games, I am sure they thought he would have done better in his first three to make it a nice easy move. The only reason it can be dragging like this is because they don't want to hire from outside. Let's look at the facts, there are clearly available and employed managers who are interested, whether seriously or just in an initial conversation but yet it has been 17 days since SK left? Shebby says these things take time, why? Yes we don't want to rush into a decision but that doesn't mean we have to delay even gathering information/intervie

If Rovers fans are expecting a Manager with an unblemished track record there are so few around and in any case Ewood would not be their favoured port of call - be realistic
Add to this the Venkys deliberations and you get what you see - indecision continuing unabated.
If the Black Hendry combination remains in situ then fans will rightly take it no change from Venkys and the protests will start up all over again.

Blackpool suits Holloway and he should stay there....why go for him (and have to cough up compensation) when Mick McCarthy is available for nothing and has 2 promotions to Holloway's one under his belt?? Makes no sense. Clearly the small-time idiots involved in the decision-making have to go for someone they know, rather than the stand out candidates. Probably haven't the balls to approach someone they don't know personally.

I would also echo the name of Mick McCarthy, due to the decent style of football he plays (with two out and out wingers) and he prepares a solid defence too.
In addition he knows what it takes to get up from this division.
Granted he comes witha swift releagtion from the premier division too, but that can be rectified, if he is provided with cash to keep us up.

This is just another "might be popular with the supporters" name dreamt up, in a vain attempt to placate the fans, before they throw in some unheard of no mark who'll wind supporters up from the start.
I'd love to see Holloway here, just for the spirit&passion he shows, but I doubt very much it'll happen because he has passed comment on Sam A's sacking, and has very forthright opinions on most things. He certainly doesn't tick the "I'm a brown nosed , @rselicking, Yes Man" box that will be on the application form sent out by the club under these owners.
All that said, most people involved in football don't know the meaning of loyalty so if Rovers offer a big enough wedge, I'm sure he'll tell 10-bob millionaire Oyston that its time for the challenge of a big club and its been nice knowing you.
House in Lytham, sets the alarm bells ringing though, too close to that thieving, lie-ridden, useless 5cumbag Hendry.
Like other posters have said if by a small miracle he can't resist the smell of the cash&takes the short trip down the M55, I hope he is allowed to manage properly and get his own coaches in. The sight of that pasty faced blonde haired Scottish alecan fraudster sat in the dugout , doing fu.ck all every game is really winding me up
You should have been in that pub in Lytham last night, a pub the HENDRY frequents, one of his Scottish pals was drunk and mouthing off, he said " Colin knows Blackie`s nae good as a manager,but Colin`s only saying good things aboot him cos he knows he`ll no last long as a manager , and Colin will be next in line fur the job '
Real honesty and loyalty there then , it`s good to see HENDRY living up to his reputation.

The only problem I can see is that he has promised to stay at Molde until the end of the Norwegian season - i.e. mid November.
He won the title in his first year at Molde and they are currently 2 points clear at the top wih 5 games to go.

I sincerely hope that the Holloway speculation has come from the Telegraph and not Ewood Park where we already have enough clowns. Holloway is a fool and not even a particularly likeable one. Like McCarthy, he could be a short term fix but more than ever, we need a long term solution and that points to Tim Sherwood. He is relatively young and having been on the receiving end of some stick from mindless morons when he was captain here, he knows what to expect.

Not entirely sure Holloways success will continue away from Blackpool. A lot of managers (Coyle) thrive at one club and fail at others. I can't understand why Clemente and Schuster arn't the main links, these are world class managers offering (apparently) to take the job and were discussing whos best from Shearer, Sherwood and Holloway? Somethings wrong.
In fact, McCarthy would be a safer bet (although I wouldn't be overly happy if we got him).
As for Clemente and Schuster; why are they suddenly touting themselves around the Championship? Is there something we should know?
If they are (still) that good, why have they not been seen for years?
OGS still seems the most interesting; he doesn't bring any baggage or preconceived ideas with him. And most importantly of course he seems quite good at his job.
At least he may know some solid citizens from Scandinavia - a better bet than relying on Singh taking advantage of another three for two offer at a Portugese Lidl.

For once I hope something is going on behind the scenes and that is the delay because let's face it we all know if the Venkys get this wrong we are back to square one.
For me Black or Hendry still being at the club goes back to the bad old days of further boycotts by the fans and we DON'T want that again.

If I didn't know better I would think the club is deliberately drawing this out so by the time they actually appoint someone we will all be that relieved that we wont give a monkeys who it is...
But it does seem like the first name on the short list is still Sherwood. He will do for me....just get him appointed today!
