Why would people who hate McLeish turn up the games if they're just going to shout abuse at him?
They won't as most will have sent their season tickets back and are 'never going again'.

Hang on, let me try to understand this.

There are Villa fans on here who actually want Villa to lose most of our games in the early part of the season?

And if we don't lose most of our games and are doing well they won't be happy because that will mean the manager who is in charge of this winning team will stay in charge?

But it's not all about him being an ex-Blues manager right?

But he's shit dave, the gods have spoken already. Have you not heard?

Didn't you know that he got them relegated twice?

I hope he has some money to spend, because we need it.

Saying Dann is too expensive worries me. We can't buy a Championship defender now?? The board are now operating a penny-pinching policy especially as AM isn't guaranteed all of the Young money. We're going backwards selling our best players and bringing in cheaper alternatives. Top-six?....No chance!

What makes you think he isn't getting the Young money?

AM stated in the B'ham Mail that there is ''no pot of gold'' for transfers and that he's not sure how much of the Young money will be at his disposal. Seems pretty poor to me that he's entering the transfer market (hopefully) and he's not sure how much he's got to spend - doh...great board policy and backing! What is the point of Paul Faulkner??? He and Lerner left AM on his own at the press conference - shit PR

Yep Faulkner is an inept Garry Cook. He is a hider, doesn't know his responsbility and a terrible communicator. I want him gone - he is IMHO unprofessional and has been a disaster since he joined

It's what the manager wanted.

Fair enough Dave I responed to the original point without reading all - wading through McLeish Out's drivell after a very long day at work was hard.

However I still stand by Faulkner should be binned. He is an amateur and has handled 2 managerial appointments and 2 managerial exits in an appaling manner and AVFC look (from the outside) like a bunch of idiots, and don't let anyone 'blame' Pat Murphy for our ills. He didn't and would never have hired Houllier

It's surely better to tell the world you haven't got much to spend rather than have every club up the money they want for a player because they know we are loaded?
Randy has stumped up whatever has been needed so far, I think he'll do so again.

Yes, it's one of the most valued brands of the RBS Group and should be treated as such. The Group needs to maximize the price of Churchill when it is sold, to comply with the directive issued by the EC in late 2009 that it should be sold, along with Direct Line, as part of the 'quid pro quo' for the Government support received by RBS Group in late 2008, and 2009.

I would prefer to think they were relegated in spite of him!
