Reading that article from the Times, I'm more than sure McLeish's agent helped draft the copy. Damage limitation and all that jazz.

He's gone.

McLeish saying his goodbyes to the #avfc players. In discussing compo. Announcement likely by lunchtime.

Party time.

just woke up , struggled to bet on him getting sacked last night when Dave mentioned something on his post.

Please make my week ..     please make my summer .

Dan Pallett ‏ @Dan_Pallett
We've spoken to #villa and #mcleish has NOT been sacked. They did confirm a meeting taking place today with owner randy Lerner #avfc

Ok, not sacked, call it mutual consent. He's going for sure, said goodbyes to players prior to the meeting, according to The Times journalist.

Lambert 5/2
Martinez 11/4
MacDonald 8/1
Rodgers 10/1

12/1 Bar - although I think its more likely to be odds on myself.

Ring the fucking bells.

Im going for 12/1 bar . That's where I will be going later If hes sacked...

I know it's stating the obvious, but I doubt there's a journo on the patch taking today off.
