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

[Concrete John]

I didn't want him, and I still don't rate him. But he's starting to win me over in the last few games.

I was very impressed with the line up and way we went about the Newcastle game. The defence is pathetic (especially Warnock) and the Heskey sub was needed to help him out. On another week he'd have put Gabby wide left for N'Zog to give us the defensive stability to protect Warnock and still allow us an option going forward.

I didn't go to the QPR game, but I saw it all and thought similar to above. Infact, since the loss to Liverpool I've only been really annoyed with McLeish's matchday work twice; Swansea at home and not doing anything sooner at Arsenal.

Be interesting to see how he goes about Sunday.

Haha what? He's starting to win you over in the last few games. So results against Arsenal, QPR and Newcastle made you happy did it? 2 defeats and 1 draw. No wins. Nice SHA ambition there.

And the person who made this thread should be ashamed of themselves.

We were winning more games earlier in the season, but the 'anti-Mcleish' argument was the style of play and entertainment value.  That has improved, mostly at least, and now it's the results that are the problem.

I wish people would just be honest and say they want him out because he came from Blues.  It would make life simpler.

Get a fucking grip, you tart.

No you get a fucking grip you blinkered old fool.

Who you calling 'old'?

I'm still playing mate.

Any manager coming in would struggle having lost the two most creative players- there is no doubt that the football has improved since Xmas and if we didn't concede so many sloppy goals we would probably be in 8th place- the defence needs sorting and if randy gives him the financial backing in the summer, I'd expect next season to see a much better side, although I think that top 8 will be as good as we can aim for- not the managers fault though as  he inherited a team in decline and lost his best players with little to spend in return for it.

Whoopee another protest to look forward to:

http://www.mcleishout.co.uk/

Definitely DazzyG/WarleyWonder

Although it bears all the hallmarks such as words indiscriminately capitalised and the branding of anyone who disagrees with him 'not a real fan', there are capital letters and punctuation on the mcleishout site so I'm not so sure.

The site was set up by Chris Hearn of Wolverhampton, he of the 'No McLeish' protest t-shirt fame last summer.

If he's from Wolverhampton then according to dazzywonder he shouldn't be a Villa supporter.

Well I'm sure Jazzy G String would make an exception for fellow anti-McLeish, go away we don't like you, everything stinks at the club, Compass. If memory serves, he's from Wolverhampton too.

If you had to live in Wolverhampton you would think everything was shit, I suppose.

If you had to live in Wolverhampton you would think everything was shit, I suppose.

I think if you lived in Wolvo your shit perception sensors would be burned out within 24 hours. You would become anaesthetised to shitness, shitness would envelop you like an old-gold egg-cosy of cack.


And you would grow old, decline and die, unaware of how shit everything was.

For the record No I don't live in Wolverhampton and before anyone says anything I have nothing against people from Wolverhampton (just for the record) before I am accused of hating someone else!!

As you are aware and I didn't want to mention it again AM is not my choice of manager and not becuase of the fact he is ex blose. Just look at his record (overall) we could all have won trophies in Scotland it isnt difficult etc etc.

I was talking to a London-based colleague in the office today, and he made reference to the concept of model towns based on times gone by, and asked loudly: "For example, what's the name of that town set in the 19th century just outside Birmingham?" (meaning that Black Country Living Museum place).

I said "Wolverhampton?" and he nodded, oblivious to the piss take, the snidey London tossbucket.

Nobody's said you are from Wolverhampton.

Look at McLeish's record in the league. 1 win out of 4 league games. Surely that's enough for fans now? How much time does he need? He should be doing alot better. If we lose against City then:

10/11 SHA - 25 games played, 30 pts
11/12 Aston Villa - 25 games played, 28 pts

How is that excusable?

I got the impression from previous posts that it was perceived that I was (I realise that I have to be specific on here now) after the one fatal error I made recently it went down like a lead balloon if we cast our minds back.

Read it again. Someone else was said to be Wolverhampton. Not you.

Why is it that the only team, and the only time, you lot ever make comparisons with is Small Heath, this time last season? And you did say you weren't coming back on here, yet one defeat and here you are again, stamping your foot and decrying anyone who thinks differently to you.

Clearly you have never been to the Mander Centre.

Well by the end of February the Rags were up to 9th and had a cup in the bag. Whilst we may not win a cup, we're certainly showing signs of playing better football, even if as you mentioned earlier, it's only really been in one half per game. It take it you were't a fan of MON either?
