Paul Lambert just walk past me saying: "He is absolutely shite the word removed." Not sure who he was talking about but assume he didn't play well.

I would say it was a bit of self reflection...

It's odd that Lerner's wealth has increased £300,000,000 in the past year yet he's not doling out any cash! Now's not the time to be a tight wad Randy...

Not a fan of McLeish's tactics, but I found this interesting.

We could be worse off I suppose...

UTV!!!

For that to be relevant in any way would depend on each manager having the same players at the same time with the same teams in the same league.

I found this "manager ranking" link on a supporter's twitter feed...

I really don't want to defend McLeish because I'm not sold on him whatsoever; though I do think we're stuck with him for a while.

Regarding your comment Johnee, McLeish pretty much does have the same squad in the same league as Houllier minus some key offensive components. (Young, Downing) Looking at this season compared to last year at this point, we've conceded fewer goals and lost fewer games. That surprises me since our defense looks really poor...

Those are both solid designs lmarsha!!!

The past two seasons have been a roller coaster for us. I'm still hopeful that we can move up the table and I'm trying to look at the few positives we've seen this season under McLeish. Hopefully we can reach 42 pts sooner than later! At that point, I'd love to see our reserves in the starting formations. We've got a lot of young talent and they would give us something to cheer about regardless of the score lines! UTV!!!

This template in Claret/Blue wouldn't be bad...

Class. Especially the Le Coq kits!!!

last one for the traditionalists

Great match today at Chelsea. Well done McLeish! Since the Arsenal match we've looked like a team with a backbone! UTV!

Talksport/Quinn just announced that Villa will appoint McLeish within 24hrs.

Big surprise...

what the **** is .H? ive just woke up with a hang over i dont need this shit.

I hope it's not Holloway.

Yeh at this moment in time think Petrov's experience would be helpful.

Central midfield 3 - Makoun , Reo Coker and Petrov imo. With Ash and Downing supporting Bent.

Unfortunately, this may not be an option...
