Exactly my feelings too. The inevitability of it all. The crushing realisation that the end of times has arrived.

On a lighter note...

Just watched McLeish and his board celebrating that cup win - again. I wonder if Randy and his cronies have ANY idea how much that grates with the vast majority of OUR fans?
Every time there is any criticism of him, the media will dredge that moment up. It will be repeated ad nauseam.

Randy, you've fucked up big time.

Not sure how reliable but I'm being told that Bodymoor Heath is the venue although I personally don't think there will be any 'un-veiling'.

The music to The Omen would be quite fitting.

Re- the grinning ninny.

I've just seen the press conference and regardless of the way he talks he still looks like a grinning ninny.

Just read this: "Alex McLeish has won just 26% of his games as a Premier League manager, so far no Aston Villa manager with more than five games in charge has posted such a low percentage. Of the seven permanent managers to have held the post since the introduction of the Premier League, John Gregory boasts the best win percentage (41.22%) while Graham Taylor endured the worst spell of the seven – the former England manager won just 29.41% of his PL games at Villa."

They just said on Midlands Today that it may be weeks before they unveil him, to let the animosity die down!

Well, good luck with that.

Weeks? They can keep the McL revelation to themselves for as long as they like.

Hopefully they will be interviewing other people. Doubt it though.
