Former QPR manager Ian Holloway says getting the Town managers job would be a dream come true for him.

Holloway said: “I would be in dreamland if I thought I was in with a chance of managing Ipswich. My agent has sent my CV to them, as he has a lot of other clubs.

 

“I have nothing but the highest regard and admiration for Ipswich - it is a massive club.

 

“I have always loved going to Portman Road, back from when I came on as a substitute in the FA Youth Cup many years ago when I was with Bristol Rovers and we had a certain Geraint Williams in midfield for us.

 

“We had steak and chips before the game and a meal after, before we came back to Bristol. I never forgot that hospitality and it is still as good today.

 

“It is a wonderful club. I have met Mr Sheepshanks in the past and he is a real gentleman, while Joe Royle is an absolute hero of mine.

 

“I would love to manage Ipswich, and good luck to the man who does get the job.”

 

Crystal Palace manager Ian Dowie could join the list of people ready to take over at Town, if as expected he leaves Selhurst Park this afternoon.
