Holloway all the way

Ian Holloway er frekar orðheppinn. Hann er knattspyrnustjóri Plymouth og hefur lofað því að koma liðinu upp í úrvalsdeild. Áður stjórnaði hann Queens Park Rangers. Nokkrir frasar:

"We looked like Queens Park Strangers out there."

"I'm like a tea bag. I never stay in the Cup too long."

To put it in gentleman's terms if you've been out for a night and you're looking for a young lady and you pull one, some weeks they're good looking and some weeks they're not the best. Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She weren't the best looking lady we ended up taking home but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let's have a coffee.

"It was lucky that the linesman wasn't stood in front of me as I would have poked him with a stick to make sure he was awake."

I am a football manager. I can't see into the future. Last year I thought I was going to Cornwall on my holidays but I ended up going to Lyme Regis."- asked whether QPR would be able to beat Manchester City.

I have such bad luck at the moment that if I fell in a barrel of boobs I'd come out sucking my thumb."

"Every dog has its day, and today is woof day! Today I just want to bark!"- Holloway after securing promotion to the Championship.

"We need a big, ugly defender. If we had one of them we'd have dealt with County's first goal by taking out the ball, the player and the first three rows of seats in the stands."- after a defeat against Notts County.


"You never count your chickens before they hatch. I used to keep parakeets and I never counted every egg thinking I would get all eight birds. You just hoped they came out of the nest box looking all right. I'm like a swan at the moment. I look fine on top of the water but under the water my little legs are going mad."

"There was a spell in the second half when I took my heart off my sleeve and put it in my mouth."

"I don't see the problem with footballers taking their shirts off after scoring a goal? They enjoy it and the young ladies enjoy it too. I suppose thats one of the main reasons women come to football games, to see the young men take their shirts off. Of course they'd have to go and watch another game because my lads are as ugly as sin."- about the new rule restricting footballers from removing their shirts during a match.

Hasney's bust his hooter. He can smell round corners now."- on an injury sustained by central defender Hasney Aljofree
