AVFC statement - McLeish sacked.

[Villanation]

Do you think he's given up? He's conspicuous by his absence at the very least.

I think there is a chance that Randy Lerner is in over his head, I think he realizes that life in a Premiership club is all about money, he is by nature a banker, so therefore he's is a short term thinker, he will set out his expenditure and expect to see results at the end of that after that like most bankers they lose interest overnight and go on to the next big thing.

I think he realises that the only way Villa can survive let alone get success he needs to be spending a lot of money, I don't think he wants to do that anymore and all the signs support that, the appointment of McLeish the fact we hardly ever see him, no real investment, McLeish now sourcing freebie's for next season, you don't have to have a mssive amount of imagination to see where we are going in all this.

White hanky's at the games?  Othe than that, non-stop chanting.  Some of the players deserve the stick too.  The fans have eased up on McLeish because he's playing kids, it's not their fault but, unless we get McLeish out, he'll ruin the kids too.

White hankies or flags sounds a good idea. The impact in the media should get home. Just need to make sure everyone understands it is aimed at McFuckwit and not the young kids.

He had the opportunity to protect some of those kids today.  He left Heskey, Charlie and Cuellar on the bench.  Such a tough game too.  He's hiding behind the kids. White Hanky's and flags, yes please.

Wonder if he's had the phone call from Donna.

He would have been slaughtered for playing Heskey instead of Weimann today.
I also don't think Zog or Carlos were fit enough to play the whole game.

[Tom Sawyer]

Brian McDermott anyone? He won't really get any further with Reading, other than straight back down if they come up.

[Des Little]

Blue hankies will look better, the empty seats will make it look like more of them are being waved.

Royal blue hankies would get the point across!

It really doesn't matter now mate does it?  But I think he could have given Carlos and Charlie an hour each to get match fit, after all, we were never going to win and could have used the game as match fitness for those two.  But to use the "we lack resources, and HAD to play kids for the theatre of dreams" trip is a load of old shit.  I think I could have forgiven him for protecting Wiemann, Baker and Gardner today for the old guards.  Arguable both ways I suppose but I think he fed the kids to the lions rather than being able to say "what a great experience" In my opinion of course.

Royal Blue hanky's would have the press telling us it's because of who he formerlly managed.  White hanky's, or claret and blue hanky's it has to be.

[Des Little]

Brown hankies would tell him he's shite

[Summers]

White, it has to be.

He waves the white flag before every game.

[ozzjim]

They were both on the bench last week though, unlike Clark who came straight in. Bannan could have played more centrally and Gardner left out, he needs protecting at the moment. NZogbia would have given us width and an attacking wide threat at least. Weimann should have been central with Gabby wide for me too, and Cuellar if fit for the bench should have started not Baker. Heskey I will accept, is not as good in his current left wing guise as NZogbia, although he didn't start anyway.

[hawkeye]

It dosent matter who he picks, he sets us up to defend the last 3rd of the pitch. That is his only tactic

[OzVilla]

"The young lions have come to the Theatre of Dreams, the champions, a world-class club side playing against people like Scholes thinking can we get close to them, can we stop them playing?


He really is the reincarnate of DOL.  I've never heard a Manager use the terms 'Theatre of Dreams' before and I hope I never do again.   

If he has a future at VP then we have no future in the PL.

[ozzjim]

He has laid blame at the door of Baker on the OS for the second goal. When Collins, Hutton and Given were all beaten too, seems very harsh to single out Baker.
