Ian Holloway's Column on BBC Sport

[Dave the OAP]

"We're a nation that should be supporting our sportsmen and women. How many people watched our rugby team get beaten 36-0 and gave us one iota of hope?

Now their manager's great and he's going to get a new contract. Three weeks ago he was rubbish!

And that's what's wrong. He wasn't rubbish then, the team got it wrong, and look what they've done since. It's all about character, turning things around and believing in yourselves.

I take my hat off to the rugby players. It's about time some of our footballers stopped poncing around driving their flash cars and got down to business"


I think the last comment is priceless
