Surely the board can't be that stupid?

It's not that easy appointing managers, what experience have you got as a football administrator etc.....

not sure on that greg, sky source reckons mcleish expressed an interest and lerner is a big admirer of him
having told the reporter in person in the past,would mcleish have made the first move i wonder ?

we will i expect find out soon either way.

We've also heard from various journalists that Randy is an admirer of Moyes, and of Hughes and he knows Klinsmann very well etc. The Sky chap is just most likely pretending that he knows, when he really knows nothing.

i really hope a decision is made very soon, the longer it goes on the more ridiculed we will be - surely the process must be nearing its conclusion?
The most important aspect is not to panic, even if the media is putting pressure on the club to response. What have Aston Villa said or done today? Nothing. It is pure speculation Babygirl.

I really do not care if the Media want to continue their spouting of rubbish, it will make no difference to who we appoint in the end.

Onwards and upwards peeps.
Right on Iago. I want us to appoint someone leftfield and brilliant which will show the journo wankers that they knew fuck all all along and confirm what wankers they are!
Affirmative. I believe it will be myself.

according to mysteryman hughes was never in the picture , something in his cv from the past that ruled him out apparently?

McLeish has something on his CV which rules him out as well.  The words BIRMINGHAM and CITY.

I'm glad we didn't sign that useless bastard Peter Withe then.

And when did Peter Withe manage us?  Or Blues for that matter?

I can see the point your trying to make but taking their players is one thing (albeit very rare as well) but getting their managers is another.  Even if it is their most sucessful manager in years, if not ever.

Nobody moaned when we got Ron Atkinson and he used to manage our local rivals.

I see many arguments for not appointing McLeish but if the main reason is because he used to be involved with Blues, that makes us as small-time as them, in my opinion.

I agree my comment was quite flippant.  There are a million reasons why we shouldn't appoint him from a footballing point of view but I cant get out of my head the backlash the board and us as fans will get if we do appoint the manager of Blues which would put a downer on the season before a ball is kicked.

If Blues' manager was Roy Hodgson, I'd welcome him with open arms.  But it isn't.  It's a bloke who was relegated on 2 of the 3 seasons he's had in the premier league and id remowed for negative defensive tactics.  The blues aspect of it is just the icing on the very shit cake.
