I have an appointment at the docs in just over an hour. I bet the feckers announce it then.

Blood pressure from this season mate ;)

If he's gone, which is sounds like it is.  Why did they (Lerner and Faulkner) allow him to get the bloke from Holland?  Seems a little weird to me.

We could be copying the AC Milan/Inter model, where the players are signed by the owners and the manager has to use what he's given.

Is it time? This site has slowed down and even the BBC have reported he has nearly gone?

If this all goes through today, I'd actually like to praise the board a bit. Yes they made a collosal fuck up in hiring him in the first place, and wasted a season. However they will have acted very quicky and got rid to give us as much time as possible. They need to learn now though and make the correct appointment this summer.

Agreed. This is the only they can make up for appointing him in the first place

Patience. He's a gonad.
I mean a goner.

Breathe a sigh of relief and begin speculating on who's next.
Or Live at Leeds or whatever.

Brierley Hill?  Typical to take them out shopping after such an abject display as yesterday.

Rest assured the drive home tonight will be nice.

Times, Torygraph, BBC, Mail, all saying he has left. I think it might finally be true.

I have this image of McLeish saying goodbye to all the playing & coaching staff, turning around walking out with a door closing behind him then an almighty eruption of joy & delight from within the room.

They better not hire Peter Grant to replace him.
