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

Or you could just type Google into Google.

I'm getting nervous.

I'm as nervous as John Travolta's masseur on the vinegar stroke.

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.
'
has that cock end Rio Ferdinand tweeted anything? He seems to poke his nose in to everything. Won't be official until I hear it from him.

I just hope that when he goes, we (the fans) keep our replacement targets a bit more realistic than the last couple of times. Some of the suggestions were ridiculous. Ancelotti or Hiddink indeed. It got very embarrassing at times.



Anyway, my vote is for Mourinho with AVB as his assistant. Maybe Guardiola as the tea boy.

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?
Never thought of that  ;D

Excellent. I agree though, I think Lambert, Martinez, maybe Poyet, Di Matteo are realistic, AVB etc not so.

SSN saying that McLeish has left the meeting, just waiting on the club to make an announcement on what's happened.
