Crispy 4 Posted July 18, 2011 Professional camera operator here with the truth !!!Holt looked fatter on Sky Sports on the highlights because the camera was at a low angle.... The pitch obviously didn''t have a decent gantry for a camera & as you can hear with the audio the camera was in the press area instead of it''s preferred higher ground we would be used to watching highlights on.So his fatter image is down to the camera low angle ....... or he has actually put on weight & spent too much time round Delia''s.

alysha 0 Posted July 18, 2011 I was there and thought Holt looked roughly the same, if anything possibly a little slimmer. I also thought C.Martin had lost a little bit of weight, not that he was carrying a few extra pounds in the first place, but maybe he has lost weight to gain a little bit of pace.

Sing up the river end 0 Posted July 18, 2011 He looks fit and he scored goals.He will be better prepared than last year,as he had that slight injury then.Fingers crossed he will be well up for it come Wigan away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beauseant 0 Posted July 18, 2011 Preseason is all about building to a peak. You want players to be at their best when the real stuff starts in mid August, not now. This is the biggest season in Holty''s career and to not work his bollocks off to make the most of it would be unthinkable. Quite apart from anything else he''ll want to look his best for when he dumps his wife and marries Kathy....[;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cantiaci Canary 557 Posted July 20, 2011 Larry David you''ve still failed to answer the question - If he was out of shape do you really think Lambert would have started him?If he had returned over weight Lambert would have put him on a running machine all summer and not let him near the grass!

Blofield Canary 11 Posted July 20, 2011 If you think he looked fat on SSN you probably have your 42" widescreen set up wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coelho 0 Posted July 20, 2011 I remember a few years ago seeing Dean Windass playing an away game for Bradford; right from the off, the home fans were giving it the ''you fat b*****d'' every time he touched the ball, and he did look pretty massive. After 10 minutes he scored, then ran to the home end and pulled his shirt up, revealing a perfectly chiselled six-pack, without an ounce of fat on it. It''s perfectly feasible that it''s just muscle under Holty''s shirt – as long as the club are satisfied with his shape, why should we worry? It''s not like Lambert would just turn a blind eye if Holty thought he could let himself go without repercussions! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lurd 0 Posted July 20, 2011 Some sensitive buggers on here. I love Holty is much as the next man but you can''t really deny he looks a bit chunky compared to your average Premier League footballer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,558 Posted July 20, 2011 He does appear to be rocking a B-cup in the away shirt picture. Not sure why everyone is getting so defensive about it, lots of players gain a little "summer weight" and then lose it during preseason training - I reckon the coaching team will have him up to scratch by the team they are off to Wigan.
