A little unfair on Holloway there with the Zamora situation - you have to remember that Bobby was 19 and raw, and Holloway had Jamie Cureton, Jason Roberts and Nathan Ellington all banging in goals for fun for Rovers at the time... and anyway, it worked to our advantage big style!

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Jason Roberts, Cureton and Zamora all left the same summer. He sent Bobby out on loan, saw him score 6 in a 6, and still didn't see that he was worth a proper look. I also seem to remember Bobby take particular delight at scoring against Holloways QPR a couple of season later. That spoke volumes of how he felt Holloway had overlooked him.

But as you say, no bitterness towards him over it, as it worked out in our favour, but it doesn't score in Ollie's favour as far as whether I rate him as a manager.
