Why FA should just let Ollie manage and Big Eck should ditch ungrateful Brum

A plaintive tweet arrives from the FA.
It pleads: “This is a Premier League matter.”
No wonder they’re so keen to set the record straight.
The £25,000 fine, imposed on Blackpool for fielding a weakened team, is ridiculous.
Ian Holloway is an outstanding manager. Let him manage.
***********
Anyone who provokes an argument with Alec McLeish is stupid or reckless.
I know where my money is, as far as a nonentity named Peter Pannu is concerned.
Birmingham’s acting chairman has the temerity to challenge his manager’s credibility.
Big Eck should enjoy Wembley, and investigate alternative employment.
He won’t be short of offers.
