Rumour has it that Rany Lerner has flown into the country for tomorrows game. oooooooooooh how exciting!  About bloody time he made an appearance
Im hoping I wake up to the headline on Sunday morning saying "MCLEISH SACKED"
Crack open the safe and get Fergusons's letter out again.

Does he only come to games against teams who have also got American owners. Maybe they all just have a good laugh at how they are taking over our national sport.

Maybe his going to convince McLeish to put one on him and then sack him for misconduct.

2 birds 1 stone. Think about it Randy.

I really hope Randy is at the game. Then he can see first hand just how much vitriol there is towards McLeish right now. He can see with his peepers about  nearly 15,000 empty seats. He can here a mixture of dull silence only broken up by a chorus of disgruntled booing, that's if he's not nodding contently at all the joyous singing and noise the cats fans will no doubt be making.

For the love of god, I hope Randy comes to his bloody senses. We might survive but it'll be down to how shite other teams have been, because we won't deserve it.

When I spoke to Alex last week, I mentioned that he may be manager of the month. We are half way through April now. Watch this space!

It's nearly three weeks since April Fools' Day.
I think that must have been when Dave spoke to him
I spoke to him before the Stoke game in the tunnel.

I reckon that was who McLeish did his wave at in the posh seats after his magnificent hanging on for a point.

I hope Randy did the wanker sign or flicked him the v's back.

Please Randy it is crystal clear we are only going one way under Mcleish, Sunderland were very poor today and they probably should have beaten us. We don't look like winning a game, whatever happens this season he has to go.

If you want Randy to wake up then don't renew or buy a season ticket.

Its depressing but, I can see him being here for a few years regardless of whether we're relegated or not.

He's worse than Billy McNeil and I think, without a hint of hyperbole, the worst manager to have ever taken charge of our club.

Apart from the fact McLeish is awful and has failed to get us winning games with or without our top scorer you've also got to look it from an economic POV with the revenue going down from poor attendances. If McLeish is having a bad economic impact on our how on earth can they keep a man who is losing the club's money? Although we love this club you have to remember its a buisness too.

I can't understand from a football standpoint AND an economic standpoint how they can keep him as manager of our team? It wouldn't make sense. Who employs someone who is losing money for their buisness? It's financially suicidal.

Hubris. It was hubris that caused his appointment. It is hubris that is keeping him employed and it is hubris that will stop him being sacked.
