I am trying to work out why.

How anyone can expect a manager to believe that the fate of his employment is in anyway more important that the health of his children has got issues.

Perspective .....
If we get relegated tomorrow I'll be very pissed off. But life will go on. No one is going to die because we get relegated. I guess that is real perspective.
And in August I'll still be there at the Walkers.
I believe Ollie is quite a shrewd character.
His footballing CV is distinctly average but he is building his media one very nicely indeed...
Trough his BBC column and his work with Sky he's carving out a decent niche for himself as a down to earth, nice guy who manages to keep everything in perspective due to his trying homelife. All done with smile on his face and some "witty" one liners.
In these serious days he's still a man of the people.
I fully expect him in the near (hopefully very near) future to see him established as one of the regularjokers on Sky - doing a role not dissimilar to our friend Chris Kamara...
The article is another irrelevance.
As far as I'm concerned the issue is that Mandaric should have sacked Holloway some months ago when it became clear that he wasn't the manager to pull us clear of relegation danger.
Like some others, I read into the lack of such action that Mandaric is likely to try to sell the club.
The only problem I have with Holloway is that he's not a good football manager although I do think that its distasteful that he should keep dragging his family into media interviews. I see all that stuff as part of his strategies to win sympathy.
Some of us were saying the same back in February. :icon_conf I have to say that although my prediction is one of the options today, I get no satisfaction from that. :icon_sad:
If Milan wants out he needs to leave the Club in a better state than languishing in Div 1.
