I'm glad I have the week off. It could be a chuffing long one. I don't expect to hear anything official today, basically because we're not that lucky.

We'll hear the England squad before we have a proper announcement from Villa.

5/1 odds on to be sacked (Skybet). Lambert and Martinez clear favourites to take over. No complaints from me about any of this.

Lansley@times now saying he is sacked.

I'm officially temporarily stopping work until the announcement is made.
If anyone in the Amsterdam area here's a giant whoop in the next hour, it won't be the monthly bomb alarm test, but the sound of an old overweight Brummie screaming with relief.

McLeish is out. Just had it confirmed by a friend to go along with the tweets.

Now, according to The Guardian Top 10s of the season, the criticism by Blackburn fans is mentioned in the Top 10 Gripes, Villa aren't. (Villa are mentioned in only one of the top 10s directly and that is for Top 10 Flops - guess who?)

Perhaps Villa fans were wrong, and that the press believed that most Villa fans were the 'silent majority', and that the 'noisy majority' were just against the manager because of his blues background.
