Good luck asking Martyn to justify and evidence his statements Emu. I've previously asked him to justify his support for breaking the boycott as he is a B Team apologist.
All you'll get is "I feel..., I think...".
He struggles with the differential between facts and opinions. 'In his opinion' Ollie is a dinosaur but he won't respect the FACT that other opinions are available or for that matter the FACT that the poll on this thread (and all bar one to date) suggest very many disagree with his opinion.
When names have come up through this process there are some stinkers straight away (Cotterill, Evans, Johnson). Then you get the possible. A bit of initial 'stroking' of excitement occurs but over time each one develops an issue (Lowe 》 inexperienced and heart may be elsewhere, Flynn 》 inexperienced and hasn't managed outside Wales etc).
Ian Holloway is not a name that ever HAD to come up. Whether you still held the silly grudge or not when the vacancy came up he was the first person all of our thoughts went to. No 'on reflection' issues have come up either, you either salivate at the prospect or you retch at the thought. But you do know what you'll get, you do know his CV screams experience and at much higher level too, you do know the football will be good, you do know there will be a smile put back on the majority of the Green Army.
Throwing in unjustified and unfounded comments that he is a dinosaur is just a shameless attempt to deflect attention away from what is patently clear. Ian Holloway is demonstrably the most preferred candidate we know of and the most qualified one too.
And that is a fact.
