Are We Alex McLeish's Claret & Blue Army Now?

[Concrete John]

Not wanting to open a completley different debate, John, but which better manager could we attract, and also remember, you say McLeish isn't top level, fair enough, i don't disagree, but remember, neither are we any more...

I think you're misunderstanding me.  My point was we could get a better man if there was money to spend.  Not necessarily MON levels, but say £20m plus what he generates from sales would interest quite a few.  As we are now with the '1 in 1 out' policy, then I'm saying we won't attarct anyone better.

I get ya!

In reply to what Moyes has done at Everton he hasn't had the money that Villa managers have had (fact) . Going back to McLEISH he has had money and look what he has spent it on I wouldnt trust him with my kids pocket money. He has no idea on spending transfer money.

Why have we not had one full house yet? Why is there no atmosphere at the ground? Why are fans leaving much earlier than ever before? The Holte have never been as quiet as they are currently why? The answer.......McLeish.

Personally, I think all this talk of David Moyes waiting for a bigger club is a joke (not recent talk but in the past where people have said he is waiting for a big club to manage).  he is not going to ever manage Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool, spurs or Arsenal.  The highest he will get in the prem is Villa, Newcastle or possibly Sunderland.  Ourside the prem he would possibly get the rangers or celtic jobs should they ever come knocking to him.

Face it, until the clueless Lerner sells up and buggers off, we're stuffed.  He's run out of cash and ideas, so I'd get used to this sorry state of affairs.

[Dave Cooper please]

Someone who could possibly do a good job "if available" would have been David Moyes he has something about him doesnt take much shit etc etc. His style of play is more exciting etc etc.

That'll be David Moyes, manager of Everton? Some of their fans are so disillusioned that they seriously think Tamworth could get a result up there tomorrow. The Everton team whose goalkeeper has more goals than most of their strikers?

Has Moyes got a relegation history?? .....................

[dazzyg]

Quote -"Alex McLeish has been in football management for 17 years so he is no stranger to a challenge.  Having over achieved (1994) that season the next two seasons Big Eck faced two scrappy relegation battles. Having seen his Motherwell side make very little progress he resigned in 1998 and became manager of Hibernian. A surprising move some might say as they too were struggling in the league and were relegated" ............ I do believe there is a pattern forming here........what do you think?

[dazzyg]

Just think if Everton do get knocked out of the cup by Tamworth then maybe Moyes will get the boot and then he will become available........hmmmmmm interesting thought eh fellow Villa Fans.

[not3bad]

Going back to McLEISH he has had money

Only because Villa have been selling their best players so that's not really an argument.  Moyes has had money to spend when a Wayne Rooney or a Jolean Scott has been sold.

Jesus man, change the fucking record.

Yeah I can just see the report: "... and so when Everton were knocked out by Tamworth Villa seized upon the chance to swap the manager who had relegated their arch rivals for the manager who had seen his premier league team knocked out of the cup by a non-league side."  Genius!

You're about as funny as someone else's fart in a lift.
