Here's all the legitmate points on why McLeish is worse as we feared.

Last 9 games: D, D, D, L, D, W, L, L D. We're not improving results wise.

Possession: We've lost nearly every single one. Even at home against lesser teams than us.

Chances: Very rare to see us attempt more than 3 shots on target. There's been games where we've only had 1 or yet 0 and that was at home.

Summer purchases: Given (only highlight of McLeish's career so far), N'Zogbia (poor overall), Hutton (even worse), Jenas (at least Makoun was available to paly)

Press talk: He spouts alot of crap. Very rarely backs up what he says.

Safe hands: Hasn't got that either. 2 PL relegations on his C.V.

A person in general: He isn't even a good man. He ditched his home country team for the shit down the road and then ditched them for us when they were were collpasing. He wouldn't give a crap if he took us down, but he'll laugh that we were stupid enough to give him more wages.

And worst of all: We actually paid to bring him here when there was other cheap options who would have been much more better and exciting. The board deserves no support.

This is why I despise McLeish and I'm sure alot of Villa fans feel the same. It would be shocking if they don't when he's the symbol of our demise.
