Holloway To Leave? >>> Holloway Sacked

Pissed off. Yet again we have sacked a manager that has not had time to develop a style of play and had time to introduce players to suit that style. We are back to square one as Mclaren will have his own ideas going forward and again will need time to get his players in, but if he ends up with a mid table place like Ollie he will get the chop as well. and we will be back to square one all over again. 

I think Tony has been good for the club. Lets face it he is better then Breatore and Eccelstein but he has got to make a decision and stick with it. and stop listening to the discontented minority and keep sacking the manager. 

Continuity is  important if you are not going to chuck money at the club. Just look at what Burnley have done with Dyche. They could have sacked him when they were relegated, but they have stuck with him and look at them now.

I am not saying that Mclaren is any better or worse they Holloway but for god sack give him time to do his Job.

Sacking the manager means that the person that appointed him made the first mistake by appointing him in the first place

 

 

I can't be happy with Ollie's sacking, and I am a bit nonplussed tbh.
Stoatey made a really sound point earlier in this thread.

Ollie has almost certainly achieved what (we are led to believe) he has reasonably been tasked with, working within much stricter confines than any of his recent predecessors had to deal with.

Sentiment aside - and I have a LOT of time for Ollie and all he has done for the club I love - I still don't get the decision from a purely objective viewpoint; especially from a board that these days continually talk about sound, rational, non-knee-jerk decisions.

Of course, we could all be surprised by an amazing replacement...I guess.

McClaren will get players from Derby and if they go up they will release some players so they can get better quality in
It's done now and I am not exactly over the moon we got McClaren but he knows this level and what he's doing especially coaching
If he starts badly he will make our board look like idiots for taking a punt on him and getting rid of ollie
Does that mean Mark bircham will go as well,he was really passionate every single game
I still say we should of got Neil Harris he got a bunch of average players nearly in the play offs who had only just gone up
Ainsworth it would been too high a step up for him at the moment,but I hope one day he will be our manager

Ollie made some strange team decisions but as I see things he achieved just about everything he was asked to achieve. What makes it worse in my eyes is that both Ollie and Birch are QPR through and through and both bleed blue and white hoops. Ollie did Tonys bidding by reducing the squad plus he reduced the wage bill and as a result he should have been allowed to serve the final year of his contract.

It doesn't matter who replaces Ollie because without plenty of investment in the team we are going to struggle. TF likes to spout off about a new stadium and a new training ground but if there is a lack of funds to improve the squad then where is he going to get hundreds of millions to undertake such a huge investment. The fans are already voting with their feet and crowd numbers are getting worse.

I'm aware you lads love a stat.

OLLIE 32%
WALLY 44%

I dont see it as a knee-jerk or particularly bad decision. Yes Ollie did what was expected or rather what he seemed to have been tasked with but i dont think he was brought in to be the long term plan which is why we are moving him on. Hopefully the new manager will be the long term plan, IF its McLaren you can at least say he knows the place, he does have a vast amount of experience and probably a good thing is he wont have loads of money to buy loads of players so he will have to do a good job on the training pitch which seems to be where he is most effective.

He did fail was charged with getting us into top half.
10th in fact FAILED.
He did not get rid of any high earner's.
Contracts ran out.
