They probably think they're doing the right thing but, as much as I'm starting to wonder about where the club is going, I don't support stuff like this.  If for no other reason than it's badly written and factually incorrect.

Such as this bit:

"With the reckless decision to offer the much wanted job as a Villa manager to Alex McLeish Lerner has taken his irresponsibility to a new level. The decision is impossible to defend whatsoever. McLeish. A manager with no trophies in the cabinet. A manager with no experience from a top club. A manager with a reputation for going down, going up and then down again. The decision can not be defended from neither a financial nor a sporting point of view.

With his decision Lerner has disregarded our heritage and challenged all fans of Aston Villa Football Club all over the world, and claret and blue common sense."

What does that last sentence mean?

I don't like the FAN STATEMENT headline. They're not speaking for me. I'm tempted to join that facebook group, just to tell them what a bunch of twats they're making themselves look. It's fans like this that make me want Mcleish to succeed even more.

well said clampy! if they dont like things then no-one is forcing them to villa park- if you dont like it fuck off and support someone else and lets get behind the club and manager rather than give a few idiots the time of day.

For goodness' sake. That really is just daft. Every time I hear or read something like this, I find myself increasing my support and goodwill for McLeish. Maybe I'm getting old, but that sort of nonsense really does get my goat.
