robertowl Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Ian Holloway is quoted this morning as saying that the new hand ball rule is the fault of the EU and Brexit will get rid of it. Unless he was joking (and the report didn't suggest it) may I, as a very occasional poster, suggest he is too thick to be our manager. I want somebody for SWFC who has a modicum of intelligence. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 It had to be seen to be believed. How on earth has he blamed not leaving the EU yet on the new handball rule I think he’s safely ruled himself out of any jobs in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how the country has ended up in the mess we find ourselves in. People believing that Brexit will get rid of any rule they disagree with, regardless of who set them. The Geneva Conventions were written in Switzerland. Does that mean if we leave the EU we can start committing war crimes? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
