dazzyg, do you have an inability to keep your posts in one place or are you such a space cadet that your mind is that fragmented?

Nobody said you had to love the bloke. There's a comfortable middle ground of giving him a chance which you have refused to do. When enough people tell you you're talking utter bollocks, it means in layman's terms it means "you're talking bollocks". That doesn't just go for the threads that you have polluted but life in general. Your joy is coming on here and beating your chest whenever we lose. Like it's some fucking badge of honour that in some perverse way, you consider yourself validated. Instead, you just make yourself out to be sadder and more pathetic than you were the previous time you posted.

You're entire platform is based on the fact that he managed Birmingham, and you have completely ignored the fact that he's had a number of issues to deal with at the club stemming from MON and Houllier leaving, and the club deciding to tighten the purse strings. Nobody, to my knowledge has given him a free pass. Even those like myself have been critical at times, but generally accept that there is a lot of work to be done and he has a tough road ahead of him. You on the other hand, have given him no chance at all. You've also dismissed the challenges that we have in several kids coming through trying to make their way at the highest level of the English game in trying circumstances. That in many respects they are being forced to play because we don't at this time have significant other options.

McLeish is going be here for a while, so better get used to it. The club isn't going to fire him however much foot stamping you do, or tantrums you throw, or protests you plan. It's going to be difficult enough for all of us to see this process through, so for those of you who completely hate the man, you're going to have tough it out. You're much better off getting to a place mentally that you can accept that he's OUR manager, of OUR club.

People like you make me want to support Alex McLeish all the more.

As I have previously mentioned the fact that AM is ex small heath is NOW NOT A PROBLEM DO YOU UNDERSTAND OR WHAT? My dislike of him is as the manager not where he has come from. All the morons who think he is doing an ok job I feel sorry for you. Is the point of the forum not to have an "opinion"

Well if you have a season ticket in the expensive bit of any stand then the cost is £610  - why?
The most expensive season ticket for the 2011-2012 season was £580.

I have obviously hit a nerve with Sheffield man ! I have never once said I want Villa to lose where did you get that shit fom as you like to say? 

Yes, I'm devastated that you have outed me as someone who has lived in a city other than Birmingham. The shame, the pain. How will I ever recover from publicly humilated in such a way by a semi-literate troll who buys imaginary season tickets at imaginary prices?

Does anyone on here really think that all fans believe in AM? I'm amazed that because I dont agree with him then people have this bizarre issue with me having a different opinion. I have been going to Villa Park for 35 years am I not allowed to say what I see?

So how much is your season ticket then? Have yo even got one? Or come to think of it ever had one? cos most northern people are out of work aren't they? Or do the benefits cover it?

So, anybody who has an opinion that AM is doing an okay job is a moron and if they thought and posted opinions such as yours they wouldn't be?

You really have that curious mix that a lot of loud mouthed idiots seem to possess.  You consider other people's views and opinion as worthless, while at the same time promoting your own half-baked ideas as the last word on the subject. An insufferable oaf, in other words.

No, at present I don't have a season ticket at the moment as I live in Poland. It's a little far to travel every week.

Yes, in the past, when I lived in the Midlands, I had a season ticket.

No, most northern people aren't out of work although I'm actually from the West Midlands so it's irrelevant to me anyway.

Does that help?

Dear me, just when I think you can't possibly make more of a twat of yourself you pull that out of the bag.

This is what you said in one of your earlier posts:

'Let's face it we hate them as much as they hate us how can we Villa fans sing for the manager after being in charge of Small Heath?'

So when you say 'NOW NOT A PROBLEM', do you mean that it once was, but isn't now or do you not have a fucking clue what you are on about.?
