AVFC statement - McLeish sacked.

[Mazrim]

He watches all the games.

[sid1964]

He sees what you see - General Krulak

I'm at a complete loss how AM is escaping being torn apart by the media!? It makes no sense! I hope they turn up the heat on him over the next few games and it forces rands hand!
I've never wanted a villa manager out in my life of following villa since 92

Might have something to do with him be Fegies mate same as Alladyce.

[VinnieChase84]

Villanic- I think your probably spot on

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

[john e]

whatever it was that Randy saw in AM, and whatever job he was brought in to do, and whatever he expected him to do in his first year.

i'm damn sure it wasnt this

[JUAN PABLO]

He watches all the games.

we are  in bigger shit than I thought then

Because they would love him to relegate us

Or Randy has made us completely irrelevant to them

[Neil Hawkes]

I think writing to RL is a better idea.

Writing to any of them is a waste of paper and ink. Straight into the waste paper basket and if you're lucky they might get Edna the secretary to mail you out some kind of auto reply.

I reckon even the complimentary ones go straight in the bin, the only Manager I recall with the good grace to answer a letter was Sir Graham.

I got one back from Ron Saunders many moons ago, (another lost gem).

[Rip Van We Go Again]

He watches all the games.

What?

Through his fingers I presume?

If he is watching them all, then i'm amazed he's sat on his hands for this long.

[Mazrim]

I agree. But I'm assured he watches all the games on TV.
Probably has a spliced feed from Greg's command centre.

He just isn't ruthless Mark, we saw that when he had MON running rings round him unfortunately. I can understand, if it were me and I liked McLeish as a bloke I would find it hard to sack him, wages are not relevant to that decision, but he owns a football club, and needs a new CEO and a new manager, and is not tough enough to boot them both unfortunately.

[David_Nab]

I agree the problem is at this point getting rid of him is pointless it's too late in the season so its sink or swim and right now we sinking slowly but surely.

[Mazrim]

It's not pointless. A new manager (or even just the current one not being there) could inspire the team to the average performances needed to get a few points.

I agree it should have been done a while ago or better yet, he should never have been appointed. I dont blame him, I blame our board. He's a crap manager and has brought that consistency here. It all so very predictable.
