Cheers for posting this. Thoroughly enjoying listening to this. Two very likeable English blokes and if God forbid we lose Hughton to a Premier League club then I would be quite happy having Holloway as manager. He clearly has a soft spot for us too.

I know what you mean. Interesting that he has sited Hemed and Rosenior as not just good players but the right sort of personalities. My opinion is that this is where a lot of bigger clubs go wrong - they just buy players who are good but without considering the impact of their personalities on the dressing room.

You're right. I'm trying to think of which players at the club have a big time Charlie attitude and I've drawn a blank. Aside from my own prejudices about not wanting him here, I was worried and still am about Murray coming in because he is a high maintenance player under Poyet and elsewhere but I hope that's down to his relationship with the manager and that he doesn't respond well to a boss with a huge ego.

Think you hit the nail on the head re Murray. Couldn't get along with Poyet or Smug Eddie seemed to do well under Holloway, too well really :smile:

Wouldn't want anyone other than Chris H managing the club at this time. A great coach but also one of the most intelligent and level-headed guys in the game.

Great interview. Both come across as very likeable and decent chaps.
