He was putting himself in the frame to become the Bristol Rovers manager (ex player of them) until they gave it to someone else so I guess he is grabbing any managerial appointment he can now before he becomes obsolete

There's an old saying --- If the cap fits wear it.

I assume he'll commute in from a countryside manor ! Can't see him in a Grimsby 2up / 2down

Don't get the dislike of Holloway, seems a decent
bloke to me,bit eccentric at times,but we all are.
Think he just might turn the Mariners around.

Journeyman managers like him earn more by being sacked than actually working.

I thought we were going to start the new year by being nice. As Mince says he is a bit eccentric but if you met him on the train, in the street or in a chip shop he would speak to you if you spoke politely to him. Gets dressed in the dark sometimes though. Saw him at Exeter races a while back and he looked like a wardrobe had fallen on him.

He's just turned Salford over in his first game.

He was not in charge for today's game.

On the EFL show to me he seemed over the top in his gushing praise for players or a team that had just done  something  quite well.
Loved the last show when viewers commented on sovial media that he was looking like John Luke Pacard!!
