Good luck Mr McLeish.

Oh, and while we're at it, can we stop calling him "Eck"? I think those duffers at BRMB and WM started it.

For God's sake, how difficult is "Alex"?

Pretty difficult. It's ''Alec'' (as in ''Gilroy'', the tight-fisted shortarse that was married to Beth Lynch for a few years).

It's his long standing nickname from his days at Aberdeen. He has said  "people called me Alec and I had the Al taken away, so it was Eck".
