Chris Kamara/SkySport ON Ian Holloway's Departure
Kammy, I'm a Plymouth fan and I'm upset about Ian Holloway going to Leicester. Why would he want to leave Argyle? Jon, Plymouth.
KAMMY REPLIES:I heard form a journalist earlier this week that he was absolutely nailed on to leave and for the life of me I couldn't believe it. I know Ian Holloway well and I know how loyal he was to Bristol Rovers. He was devastated when they sacked him. Then he went to Queens Park Rangers and gave that job everything he'd got, but in my opinion he was hung out to dry once again and sacked unjustly.
Then he went to Plymouth where the board love him, the players love him and he is a hero. If Plymouth managed to get to the play-offs this season, there would be the biggest party ever in Devon. But if they don't get promotion it wouldn't be a disaster and they would have hope for the following season.
But under Milan Mandaric at Leicester, the priority is to get out of that division this year, even though they are off the pace at the moment. He'd be working under pressure form the start. So my advice to Ian would have been to stay put. Plymouth is a good football club where he can call the shots and everybody loves him. Why would he want to put that in jeopardy? It's a very surprising move. Skysport
Paul Parker/Setanta It's Aldershot v Grays live on Setanta on Thursday and I think the league leaders need to score early.
Grays are not necessarily negative but they are a team that struggles to score goals and they don't give a lot away. They're a very aggressive defensive side.
Aldershot are top of the league and deservedly so. They're playing good football and scoring lots of goals.
They have probably the best goalkeeper in the league in Nicky Bull and are scoring goals from all over the park.
It'll be one of those games that will definitely need Aldershot to score first to really open it up to get at Grays, who can be very tight and very sterile.
I'm sure it's everyone's first chance to see Aldershot as they haven't been on Setanta yet and people will want to see why they are top of the league.
It's up to Aldershot to put on a good show against a side that are defensively one of the best in the league.
It'll be good for them to show the reasons for their success and why they score a lot of goals.
I think they're proving themselves consistently at the moment. They're playing very well and will be there or thereabouts at the end of the season. They haven't stayed up there for no reason at all.
I know Gary Waddock very well as I was with him at QPR. He wants to go out and do well and, coming into this side of football, that he'd never known, he's doing very well.
People were doubting them and questioning them but he's got a relatively young side playing decent football.
There aren't many better surfaces than at Aldershot in this league so it's a game I'm very much looking forward to. Setanta
