Like Andy I'm happy we don't sing to McLeish just let him get on with it besides we'd look like hypocrites if 5 minutes ago people were painting Bluenose scum on walls and now we're asking him to wave like he's our mate. There is no getting away from the general depression around the place yet we're unbeaten? If I had to describe the atmosphere at Villa Park I'd say we've all just become comfortably numb. We just need a few wins at home stick with it.

Regards the Claret N Blue Army chant I remember the first time I heard this when Sir GT was in charge. There was just this noise coming from the back of the holte getting louder, none us knew what they were singing till someone said I think its "Graham Taylor eats Tandoori" which stuck for the rest of the season round by us. We knew how to enjoy ourselves back then alright, home games against the likes of Luton and Wimbledon just used to fly by ;)

I'm pretty sure the first time I heard the managers claret and blue army chant was Billy McNeil! Hard to believe I know.
