Again the same twaddle about him being ex Blues being the reason why we don't like him. Perhaps it's just us?
No mention of the fact that McCleish is clearly not up to the task. Doesn't he pick the players? Doesn't he appoint the coaches to work with the team on the training ground? Does he not decide the team formation and tactics? Is he not responsible for putting the fire in the belly of the players?Sorry Sir Graham, heard it all from a hundred other pundits already.That said, would you be interested in a five match contract?
The 67-year-old, who led Villa to second place in 1990 before becoming England manager, explained: "I just think it's better to lose a game by trying to win it. I don't expect everyone to agree with me but it's better for the supporters, spectators and the game as a whole.

What concerns me the most at this particular stage of the season, is the bit about the "McLeish Out" flyers that are supposed to be handed out tomorrow.Tomorrow we need to get behind the team and I can't see that helping the cause whatsoever.Assuming we stay up, show your feelings after the walk of shame after the last match against Spurs - not tomorrow.

That is the implied criticism, which is as far as close as anyone in the little cliquey network of football managers and ex-managers has come to criticising McLeish openly (much as I love SGT, hes definitely in that old-boys' network).However, it does really annoy me that he plays up the Blues angle like everyone else. It's just not fecking true,
