Holloway happy with home win

Blackpool boss Ian Holloway was delighted to have won his first home match in the Premier League.
The Tangerines claimed a 2-1 win over nine-men West Bromwich Albion at Bloomfield Road.
Blackpool went ahead thanks to Charlie Adam's penalty, which was awarded after Pablo Ibanez brought down DJ Campbell.
Ibanez saw red for the challenge and not long after he was joined in the changing room by Gonzalo Jara for a two-footed challenge on Luke Varney.
Varney then doubled their lead on the hour before Youssouf Mulumbu pulled one back for the Baggies late on, but Blackpool held on for their first win in front of their own fans this term.
"I am glad the monkey is off our back and we have won at home," Holloway told Sky Sports.
The Blackpool chief admits that Ibanez's dismissal spoilt the game.
"I would have rather just had yellow card and a penalty, it was a great move - it is a sending off, but is he going to score, you have Scott Carson there - I think it ruined the game as a spectacle," he continued.
"We are not comfortable at the moment, we are still learning to play at this level, we are trying to pass the ball."
Holloway was also critical of his own fans who were anxious for goals as they were playing nine-men.
"11 v 11 we looked a good side, I haven't had that as a manager before and we are still learning," he said.
"Unfortunately we did not make the most of it, I don't think our own fans helped, you have to beat their goalkeeper and eight men and it is not easy."
Holloway insists that their 13-point haul so far is a great effort.
"If that is the only 13 we get - don't do us with disrespect, we are a good footballing team, yes we do have to sharpen up in front of goal but we are going to improve and keep getting better," he said.
"West Brom have been up and down, and the quality they have in their squad it is starting to show. They have done really well and we are just basically out of the nest, we are fledglings.
"My lads, I am really proud of them and we have it harder than anyone else, but I am a realist but there is not one game here I will come and think we are going to win.
"My lads will get used to it, and I am enjoying it."
