I think we all know the outcome of this one!

You cant stop Blose fans voted thou can you .

[pauliewalnuts]

He's not going to get sacked.

I actually don't think he'd get the boot if we went down, to be honest.

Lerner and Faulkner have bought into this nonsense and just don't "get" how people can be so angry about it, hence their consoling arm-round-shoulder routine in the tunnel last night.

[danlanza]

All the criteria for him getting the sack has been fullfilled time and time again.I just don't get the reason for him still being in charge and  i am tired of hearing about"it would cost to much to get rid of him".Bollocks!It will cost us far more if we don't.

It’s almost turning into an us versus them attitude. We’re the nasty, ungrateful fans stopping an employee of Aston Villa Football Club doing his job and Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee are the consoling club employees there to provide a shoulder to cry on and tell McLeish to ignore the critics.
If this is their attitude to running our club then you can fully understand why many many fans will be justified in telling them where to go next season.

Shellshocked after last night ...   

We were warned of this awhile ago ... read 'Too Much Sand'  in recent H&V magazine.

PLEASE Go, - NOW !

[JUAN PABLO]

Fans are going to have to stop going then , If he is not going to sack the clown .      He needs to wake up NOW!!!

Agreed. A clear indication of LACK of Business Acumen. Like giving McLeech a THREE YEAR Contract - when he was (allegedly) out of work & had just relegated Blues. Oh, - "and would you like a wage rise, too" ? Faulkener desperate to employ anyone after the MoN debacle.  He has little knowledge of football & has cost OUR club MILLIONS (so far).
MoN's Legal payout... The above mentioned Contract ... and potential relegation. We WILL lose THOUSANDS of fans & MILLIONS of ££££'s.  I have never yet said one word against Mr Lerner - his 'toy' - so, up to him (sadly for us). BUT he is starting to look like the rich man's son who has not had to work for his millions - in danger of blowing it ...

[NiiLamptey]

read something earlier that if McLeish manages to do the Birmingham double he would be the only manager in the history of world football to take the 2 major clubs of a major footballing city down in successive seasons.

shocking statistic.

 

 

McLeish is on a misson to destroy football in the Second City.

Maybe its some sort of vendetta?

A factory his dad worked at in Glasgow was closed down and relocated to Birmingham...

He has then made it his life's ambition to make all brummies suffer?

My feelings exactly.

His next plan is to take the Baggies job after Woy leaves for the England role.  He will relegate them and make it a hat trick.

To be honest, Neil, I reckon you're dead right about the "them and us" thing.

[Zhong Yi]

if Hodgson gets the England job he could always try making it a treble. Fergie would be really impressed then.

I would have had Hodgson here & said so... I am beginning to wonder if Fergy's words were irony / taking the P~~~

[Jimbo]

As I said last night, if he wasn't sacked by this morning, he won't be leaving until his contract is up - or we're in the 3rd division. We're stuck with the inept fool(s).

[PaulWinch again]

The 'them and us' division is insanity as a club needs both sides to be in harmony for the most part to succeed. The fans need the club to be run properly to support with passion, and the club needs the fans there for revenue. If you piss off the fans too much they won't turn up or buy merchandise, that's already started to happen and the club will be stuffed.
