I think it is fair to say, with McLeish's record over the years, you can make it sound good or bad by what you leave out in the arguement.  He is not brilliant and he is not the opposite, he is an average manager that has not, as yet, shown in the PL he is good enough for Aston Villa.

Let us hope that changes with us and he gets back to playing with some adventure and thinks beyond his 3 year contract.

Although I've been dead against this appointment, the realisation has finally set in. Alex Mcleish - Aston Villa Manager.
Best of Luck to him and the team, I really hope he proves me wrong and we have a good season.

I read that the press conf. is at Bodymoor Heath, is that correct ?
If so, is there any significance in that ?

How will the hoards of adoring fans welcome the new boss all the way out there ?

I can't imagine why its not at Villa Park.

The club has the courage of its own convictions...doesn't it ?

He's never done press conferences it's not his style but what has bottle got to do with it?
