Time to back McLeish?

Easy solution Gabby start playing "decent winning" football and to the club get rid of jocko

Time to be phlegmatic - McLeish will be here for the duration of his contract because it cost a load to get him and would cost alot more to get rid of him. Take the long term view, there will always be Villa but McLeish will not always be in charge.

Its either that or we all chip in to pay off McLeish?? I'm in, how does £100 sound to start the ball rolling ????

Good luck with that moo

You're right, he's here to stay. So you should back him and there's a chance results will improve.

This season's a transitional one

I'm clever enough to understand a transitional period and one transitional season as a fan is not the end of the world.

However, Chelsea are in a transitional season and yet lie 5th in the league, three points off a Champions League place, and still sack their manager. We lie 15th, might get relegated, and there's absolutely no sign McLeish's job is under fire or even that he's come under pressure from Lerner.

I think this shows not only are we a small club with no standards whatsoever, but also that we're being run by a guy who seems to think it's normal for a side to finish in the top six regularly and within two years find themselves fighting to stay up with tiny clubs like Wigan and Wolves.

Pathetic is the only word that sums us up at the moment.

If something looks like a log, smells like a log and feels like a log then I don't want to taste it to find out IT IS a log.

We are in transition - BACKWARDS

To be fair,i think that the fans at heart do really want to back the team, but the performances this season have been shocking. We can still turn it around, but it is going to take a few very good performances on the trot, or at least a win from somewhere. A cup run would have helped, but as it stands we need to win a few league games, the sooner the better. If we finish off the season continuing the way we have been, the fans will be even worse next year, and thus i cannot see Mcleish lasting till January.

If moo villa is correct maybe you should look at the word transition, turn it backwards and say it in a Scots accent:
'No, It Is Na Rt'
It is not right, but long may it continue!
You reap what you sow!
He had us relegated twice in three years, need any more be said?

Maybe it's time Gabby actually put a ball in the back of the net.
