“Seamus Coleman is a wonderful young fella who will be a top quality attacking right-back in the Premier League,” said Holloway, who has overseen a return of 13 points from their first 10 games since moving up a level.

“He has thanked me for helping him in his loan spell at Blackpool last season, but it is me who should be thanking him because I don’t think he will ever fully realise how much he helped us.

“I had a situation where one of my players got injured and I needed some cover. I chose Seamus at Everton and we did a loan deal. It was one of the best things I did because he came in and added a new impetus and helped us go all the way to Wembley in the play-offs and win promotion.”

And Holloway, who has won many admirers so far this season for his openness and the equally expressive approach he brings to tactics, says he is a big fan of Coleman’s honest, attacking style.

“Seamus helped us achieve something we probably didn’t dream of and I just love the way he plays,” added Holloway. “He runs with the ball and has a great touch.

“I tried to get him back on loan this season but David Moyes said ‘no’ because Seamus would get in his first team. Typical Moyesey, he is a man of his word and put Seamus in. I saw Seamus create Tim Cahill’s goal in the Merseyside derby and I was really pleased for the lad.”

He's a class act, Ollie. He's hilarious and eccentric, but he's got his style and his beliefs and he sticks to them. Really respectful too.

I really hope they can stay up this season, but nevertheless, I hope we batter them on saturday :P

There's nothing I don't like about Holloway and Blackpool. I'm really rooting for them except for this week and the return trip.
 
Yeah he seems like a good bloke Holloway and there isn't much to hate -- I'm sure if they stick around for a few years we'll find something though. :) They'll have to be careful in the second half of the year though as when you get a few injuries the lack of depth with those promoted sides can really start to hurt. If Adam goes down I think they go down.
 
Blackpool are one of those unnoticed underdogs that you can't help but cheer for everytime they play...
Except this weekend... We're gonna turn 'em inside out!
 

For every comment from that idiot Benitez

You have a comment that restores your faith in football from the likes of Ian Holloway. He won't always be a saint I'm sure but his honesty is very refreshing.


He's defo a credit to the whole game I'd say.

You say that but you'd rather have Rafael in charge of your side.

Not that I've any time for RB, myself.
