Fetch Ollie: The Autobiography Of Ian Holloway Constructed By Ian Holloway Distributed As Publication

I enjoyed this autobiography. It's the normal footballautobiography style BUT Ian Holloway's life is somewhat different from ordinary footballer or managers and I felt he had a story to tell.

His wife's cancer, his children's deafness, and the trails and tribulations of playing and management in the lower league makes for a good read.
In more uptodate editions I'm sure there will be coverage of his latest exploits with Blackpool and I would've liked to have seen those but this is an easy, entertaining, and at times very funny and poignant story.

Good luck to "Ollie" in the Premiership this year with Blackpool, I have always loved Ollie as a character and a real football man and love him more after this book.


he has gone through some real tough times with the death of his father and his girls being born death but he has coped with this admirably.


A great read and an insight in to how our football managers live and breathe football,
