What was the fans reaction at the end of the game? My stream stopped working in the last min.

Yes! I don't like the guy, his tactics or his record the sooner the better what's the point? When u can predict the outcome of Villa's last 6 games and they all happen you know bad things are happening, plus i'm saving for a deposit so the £40 notes i would be spending for 15 minutes of some sort of decent football (mainly at the end of games) doesn't seem worth paying. This year i haven't been once, last year i went to 6 home games and the year before that 17. If i weren't saving though i would have went to a few i still might.

Didn't Paul Faulkner say our aim was top 8-Europe!? If so then why the hell hasn't he and isn't already sacked? We're 15th ad have a testing few weeks ahead of us. Now is the time to cut the cord and get someone new in who's fresh approach can get the best out our attacking players and
We can move up the table! At least under O'leary played better football! Worst manager by far in my time following the villa since 92

i think id rather him get sacked now and us go down trying rather than scraping to stay up and having him in charge next season!

Well he's just stated the "game plan was excellent and we were unlucky"

He should be sacked for that alone.

Oh dear, some voted no. It seems they love anti-football and potenial relegation.

There's a difference between wanting him out and thinking he deserves to be sacked.  Do I want him as the manager? No.  But I don't think he deserves the sack either.

To be sacked you need to either be negligent or repeatedly break the conditions of your contract.  Sadly I do not think McLeish has done that.  In fairness to him, he's probably not too far behind parr considering the conditions he's had to work under.

If we went down with McLeish would people who want him to stay now think he's the perfect man for the job in the Championship? Serious question here. Would you still want him here anoter season? He got SHA straight back up afterall.

I'm sure the board would think it through.

Fucking hell. Did he really say that? It does seem that we aim solely not to lose and usually fail in that.

Fuck me. I really hope he didn't say that. Because if he did and worse, he believes it he is going to lose a lot people who are sitting on the fence about him very, very quickly indeed.

Yes. We tried something, it hasn't worked. 6 wins in 25 is the elephant in the room.

His interview was staggering and Dwight just essentially said he was talking bollocks and the performance as a Villa fan was unacceptable.

Yes.

Get him the fuck out. If a desired choice isn't there, KMac and Sid finish the season and then get the desired option.

McLeish out before he relegates us.

SIX wins in TWENTY-FIVE games and people want to give him more time?
