So Ian Holloway was ‘appointed’ in 2012 00:17 - Jun 22 with 2391 viewsSitfcB

He turned Palace down to become our manager after originally agreeing with Steve Parish to become Palace manager, eh.

...and then suddenly Mick was appointed instead? wtf.

It’s from the Palace documentary on Amazon Prime.

A lot of Ipswich connections on that ha.

Alan Lee
Ambrose
Garvan
Lewis Price
David Wright
Parr
Jonny Williams
Delaney
Joel Ward (The transfer that never was, he said he was about to sign for Leeds before Palace anyway, not us)

...that 5-0 defeat


...and the 3-0 win with the Cresswell screamer.

Yeah I laughed at that, turned Palace down because Evans was offering him a ridiculously large amount of money. Shame he didn’t invest anywhere else in the club.

It's amazing how much we paid our managers when we offered so little on other staff.

Other than the 40 odd million he's lost over the period of ownership you mean?

Re Holloway - not sure it's been accurately projected. Evans initially wanted Redknapp before being persuaded to go with Mick by a couple of people around him. Holloway was interviewed and fitted the bill to an extent as the motivator we needed at the time.

Holloway would certainly have fitted the Evans template of incompetent managers.

That does ring a bell - us and Palace were looking for a manager at the same time and Holloway was linked to us.

Narrow escape - other than a couple of seasons in the sun, he's been a poor manager at most of his clubs. The novelty comedy act would soon wear thin....

I finished that yesterday, I had no idea Holloway was that close to joining us. Typical that his first Palace game was that 5-0 win

Delaney clearly wasn't very fond of us either!
