Not for me, except I'm positive the board are too fucking clueless to sack the manager.

Now I think we can well and truly put to bed the myth that Mcleish is potentially a good manager. No amount of tin pot cups in Scotland and a League cup, can disguise the fact he relegated his last Premier League team twice in three years and he's well on the way to relegating his current team.

He is shit and when people defend him, you have to wonder if they're being perverse or just trying to raise their site profile.

Still think we will survive this season mainly because of the points we already have. Place us in the bottom three and i really doubt we'd be able to get out.

It says we are deeply in the shit!
This feels like the last days of DOL when we all knew we were doomed if he stayed.

But what the hell do we as fans do?
Not supposed to boo, not supposed to protest, not supposed to not attend or take your seat late, not supposed to write letters as all are "small time".

So we just sit and take it and in 10 years time Randy and Eck will be gone while we sit in a half-empty stadium playing Barnsley (no offence Barnsley)?

Absolutely agree, the fortunate 3 points against Wigan has probably saved us, but only probably.

I would like to see him do well because he seems like a nice guy, but his record this season has been very poor and I've seen very little to suggest he is up to premiership management. If we don't relegated this season we are surely strong candidates next season with McLeish in charge.

Are you implying he's a carrot-topped cabbage?

If we showed any sign of improvement or progression I would support McLeish.

We don't know how to win and after 29 games everything's remained constant.
