Good number of positive comments on here about Wurzel. Can I take he won't get the traditional chant when he appears at the TV window above the North Stand next time then ?? [emoji3][emoji3]

Thought it was a cracking discussion between two proper football men. Holloway clearly has a soft spot for both CH and the Albion.

When he went to palace I thought clown manager made for a clown club. I HATED him and not just because he managed them, I had always thought he was a massive cock. Since he's been fronting the league coverage I've definitely warmed to him. I always think why is he being so nice about us when he was one of them but watching that has tipped the balance to thinking he's actually alright...

He was manager of Crystal Palace, he doesn't support them. He has no reason to dislike us. If I was manager of Arsenal I wouldn't hate Tottenham Hotspur- I don't support either club- I would just do my job.

Great interview. Holloway has a certain way with words and Chris was, well, Chris. Very lucky to have him here :thumbsup:

Didn't Hollowhead have a lot to say about poogate at the time?
I lost a lot of respect for him over that

Hopefully a great reception for Chris today from both sets of fans. I am concerned that there is not enough love for this quietly spoken, dignified and respectful man. He is wonderful and must be considered one of the best ever.

On your first point, without doubt. Can't help but think a certain amount of Norwich fans wouldn't have many good things to say about Chris. Watching some of their games at the arse end of that particular season it appeared that Hughton was doing his upmost to not give away anything at the back(like Jan to May 2015 for us), as that particular defence was shite. Maybe that was down to injuries/loss of confidence, i can't remember. They got rid of him with 5 or 6 games to go and replace him with an in-house appointment(name escapes me). Would Chris have kept them up that season? Maybe. It was a daft decision.

It was Neil Adams who was managing their under 18's - at end of the season despite having not managed elsewhere and taking them down, he got the manager job proper.

Ian was bad-mouthed by the new yuppy Chinese Villa owner just before the beginning of the season. Was just giving his predictions on what might happen this season in the Championship, saying Villa would probably struggle to go straight back up. Hopefully he's right.

Dr Tony is coming across as a complete BELLEND so far isn't he.

If i recall correctly, didnt they have such a horrendous run in, that Mourinho or SAF wouldnt have kept them up?
