Yes get behind him with a size ten boot up the arse and out of villa.

Don't be like that just because you're annoyed at this afternoon's results.

My attitude`s changed about all this, i was one of the he`s ours give him a chance set, but his record, injuries, illnesses, etc` notwithstanding, speaks for itself now. The Spurs game is really the last opportunity for the paying supporters to show the Board that they seriously fucked up, play it by the numbers, stay onside as long as we`re in the game but if it goes tits-up, showtime.

We did that at the Bolton game, now we need the points. He's as good as gone, so get behind the team and see this godawful home season over on a high

Said the last home game was the perfect time for it, but then i wasn't expecting us to still need points.So nah. If the club aren't aware of the fan's feelings by now, then the season ticket renewals or lack of them will probably do it.

Is he to blame for the injuries, illnesses etc?

When's this protest taking place anyway?

I really can't see the point pre or during the game as the team needs our support. If we see another dire, defensive 90 minutes that ends in defeat then I don't have a problem with people protesting after the game...that's if the club dare do a lap of appreciation.

Support the team and show some class and integrity. The board are more than aware of how the fans feel, but first things first, Back our players. Any prospective managers/players will not be interested in coming to Villa having watched protests that are of a nasty and personal nature. We will always be here Mcleish wont ..........

We need the points but we also need to show how unhappy we are about McLeish being at the helm, support the team but give him hell.

Absolutely not, every club/manager gets them and they shouldn`t be used as an excuse.

Whatever the situation, the coward is still being paid (a fortune) to manage the team, and sitting on his arse for the 90 minutes because he was too scared to get into the technical area isn't doing his job.
Mcleish can be accused of many things the season but calling him a coward is completly out of order. If he was coward he wouldnt have joined us in the first place knowing he was never going to be welcome here in the first place!

I can think of two million reasons he might have thought the stick would have been worth it.

He might be a few thing but, and this is just my opinion, he aint no coward thats for sure.

I think he was a wealthy man prior to joining us so I dont think money was the prime reason for joining us, but maybe I am being naive.
