He used to be refreshing, but every match is the same with him. He has become as fresh as last week's Warburton's Blackpool Milk Roll.

I have a rule for offside on football. If you are not intefering with play what the fuck are you doing on the pitch!!
Don't mind Holloway really but as someone has already posted surely he has benefited from similar decisions during his playing/managerial careers.
I can see where he's coming from with Tevez's 2cnd goal as Dowd could quite easily have blown up for a foul, and to be honest wouldn't have been surprised even though it was a bit innocuous.So glad he didn't.
Think Holloway's wrong though about Taylor-Fletcher's offside 'goal' as the other Blackpool player (Grandin?) who was firstly involved in the move was clearly offside when the ball was played upto him and his attempt to control the ball made him active. So it was him not TF who was flagged offside.
In the build up to Tevez's 1st goal it does look like he was in an offside position but the ball from Silva took a deflection off the Blackpool defender. Isn't this similar to Huddlestone's goal on Saturday? If so then the decision to let the goal stand was again the right one.

It's getting into a habit with him, and their fans, they are claiming there is a conspiracy against them!

To be fair lads if it had worked exactly the same the other way around we would be having the conspiracy against City wank fest
Cant blame Blackpool for feeling abit aggrieved after what happened

Agree but... We as City fans do exactly the same, more so this season! The world is against us you would think based on some views on here at times, lol.

Maybe so, but Holloway is a professional so therefore must act as a professional. People on here are just fans and are basically looking at the situation from the outside in.
Mind you though...he did have a good view up there in the stands of the game, btw why was he up there. ?? :)<br /><br />-- Mon Oct 18, 2010 6:44 pm --<br /><br />
