Here's a moan by a neutral blogger on the Teamtalk site - it makes a refreshing read - to quote....
------------------------------------------------------------
'Talking of managers that irritate me, can anyone blame the Aston Villa fans for the chants they directed at Alex McLeish on Saturday? I've mentioned before that I think he's extremely lucky not to get more negative press and it continues to astound me that more neutrals cannot understand why the Villa faithful is so annoyed by having him in charge.
It has little to do with his Birmingham connection but everything to do with the dour, avoid-defeat-at-all-costs approach he takes to every game. He has described the Villa job as one of the toughest jobs in the Premier League, but there's plenty of managers that would kill for some of the young players McLeish has at his disposal and it must be soul-destroying for the club's supporters to see them playing such dire football.

very bold shout for us to finish 5th. we have a tough month then a very very kind run in.
harry will go but i am not overly fussed. hes done very well but tactically he gets exposed by the top managers and will get eaten alive in international football.
as for all our stars going - course they will... not like they are all tied down to long term deals or anything
how is luka modric getting on at chelsea?
