BBC news
"Alex McLeish's 11-month reign as Aston Villa manager looks to be over.

The 53-year-old former Scotland manager said his farewell to the Villa players on Monday morning.
The club have yet to make an official announcement about McLeish"

 


Maybe all the players are leaving and he is staying?

Maybe they're getting Lambert in as manager and then doing one big announcement to save some cash.

Chill bill, we'd have all settled for June sometime, so talk of the sack half a day after the season finshed is progress, just hang on in there....

Thatcher & McLeish go in the same day?  H&V would single handedly break the whole internet!

Joyous news. It will put an end to one of the most painful seasons many of us can remember. Not just from a results standpoint, but the fact that we were genuinely boring to the point of near death experiences. I know I wanted him to succeed. He did everything to prove the people who doubted him all along right. That's all on him, and the fact that in recent weeks he's blamed everyone including the club cat, tea lady and mascot for his failings is disgraceful.

Hasn't Bannan tweeted anything on the matter?  I'd expect the news to come from him

Nothing from Barton either

And Stephen Fry is just wittering on about Hugh Laurie so that's no help either.
