Holloway humbled by Japan disaster

Blackpool manager Ian Holloway intends to remain humble after being appalled by the devastation caused by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Holloway is still reeling at the dreadful events that unfolded in the Far East and he felt compelled to comment on the disaster ahead of the Barclays Premier League match against Fulham at Craven Cottage. He said: "Some things in life beggar belief at the moment. I know I am healthy, I know I have my family safe but unfortunately people in Japan don't know where their loved ones are. "We are involved in football and we are going to try our best but my heart goes out to those people." Blackpool are only one point above the relegation zone as they head to London but Holloway is not worried about the run-in and perhaps losing their status. He said: "Obviously there is a lot at stake but I am very positive. It is all to play for. It is absolutely exciting. The funny thing is you try and work out who should win what games, we have blown that off the chart."
