Scole Canary 0 Posted October 28, 2007 Plymouth boss Ian Holloway is on the shortlist to take the vacant managerial position at Norwich. (News of the World) But former Leicester manager Martin Allen has had a second interview for the post at Carrow Road and could be appointed this week. (People) Holloway could be interesting!

Block E Buh 0 Posted October 28, 2007 Yes, it seems Allen is now favourite after a second interview and Holloway is 2nd on the shortlist. Jewel is now linked to the Middlesbough job as Southgate is under pressure from fans up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,167 Posted October 28, 2007 I can tell you now 100% that Ian Holloway will NOT be the next mananger at Carrow Rd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyboy 1 Posted October 28, 2007 Ive wanted Allen all along because he is one who will take no crap from players something which we havent dealt with for a long time and he will argue with the board instead of being a yes man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carlos Valderrama 0 Posted October 28, 2007 Say that top of the Norwich Hit list is Plymouth manager Ian Holloway.Now I know that this comic, sorry, newspaper has more in common with Viz than anything else but this story really did catch my eye.Apparantly Holloway is sick of the restricted transfer budget at PA despite leading them to the top half of the table.Like Jas I would question Paul Jewell''s loyalty, this would not be problem I think with Holloway. For me he would be a great appointment. Worthington was a bit of a disciplinarian and he lost the dressing room, I would imagine that Grant was similar....Whereas Holloway comes across as different, maybe a friendly, one of the lads style manager would really get us going.And also, as I have said before....even if the football is rubbish at least the post match interviews would be entertaining!!The same paper also states that Wolves are planning a january move for striker Chris Brown. so for all you doom and gloom merchants out there, every cloud can have a silver lining....Message to WE8WBA, if its true - HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa.......

Syteanric 1 Posted October 28, 2007 id take "olly" here in an instant.. a decent manager and an honest bloke to boot.. he''d get us to mid table security and knows how to operate on a budget...jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norwichsfinest 0 Posted October 28, 2007 According to the News Of The World (Trusted reliable paper that one!!!!!), Ian Holloway is hot on the boards list. At least if the results don''t improve under ''Ollie'' thepost match interviews will be good comedy value!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCFC1871 0 Posted October 28, 2007 It seems that once Jewell gets back from overseas and then probably turns us down for Leicester (with their wealthier chairman) - we will go for Martin Allen which is probably the best available option on the table at this time - provided we can get a decent number two/coach to go with the package (a good assistant option is Parkinson but he is unlikely to move to another deputy managers job at this stage) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grando 336 Posted October 28, 2007 Why would Wolves be planning a January move for Chris Brown (why would anyone for that matter)? Surely that ridiculous bit of speculation should be enough to discount any of their managerial theories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Polar 0 Posted October 28, 2007 I live in Plymouth and Holloways seen as a god here for what hes done to the local tin pot, celebrate throw in, championship pretender gang who are annoyingly doing better than us at the moment. but yeah, to be fair hes done a good job and interestingly made Argyles players pay back the cost of tickets on one poor away game they had to the fans, so i guess that shows he values fans highly. well all know how comical he is and all that lot, but i really can''t see him at Norwich, Argyle have a horribly restricted transfer budget yes and about 13 of their players will be out of contract in the summer (apparently) with a few going down the capaldi route and not wanting to renew so if theres an oppourtunity for him to jump ship i guess he might take it and if the turners are ready to finance a transfer budget he may be even more tempted.for my own personal safety however id rather he didnt join, hes the best manager the green, pasty loving, chav strewn scum have ever had so they might want to mug me repeatedly for wearing a norwich shirt.my ten cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
