If Holloway was ever accepted City manager I would not only give up on this club, but with football in general.
If somebody like that could be welcomed in and cheered by the Ashton Gate crowd, then football as I know it would be dead. While we're at it, why don't change our kit to Pink and Yellow spots and go and play in Cornwall. Because at the end of the day nothing really matters does it?
What do we stand for as a club? Because if Holloway could ever be our manager, then I would argue we stand for absolutely nothing. I simply do not understand what the people that want him here see in football in the same way I will never understand Cardiff fans that are happy to play in red.
There are plenty of candidates for this job that I don't like and/or think are poor managers, but should they be named I would be fully behind them. But not him. Never.
This the best post have I read. Football used to mean something. Holloway is a good Manager, would do well, but with his background and the rivalry between the clubs this could not happen. A lot of fans on here are not old enough to remember him and the derbies we used to have that he played in. A great point made regarding Cardiff's red shirts. There would be people on here accepting us changing to blue with a new owner so long as we played in the plastic premier league. I long for a city team with a few home grown youngsters playing attractive football and trying their best every game. Accepting Holloway is accepting changing your badge, colours, claiming to support Liverpool or Chelsea or Man United from the comfort of your DFS sofa watching Sky! Those people are not real football fans!
