Throw in some appropriate capital letters :winkold: and the man makes a very valid point! Thanks brommy, no time for punctuation when ranting!! You forgot to mention that he has champions league experience as well. Not bad for $0

I must be a bit nieve in the tactics department. So could you please explain to me how making TACTICAL SUBSTITUTIONS in the 86th and the 90th minute changed anything ? Hopefully this week Mc Dipstick can make a couple of tactical substitutions in the 89th and the 92nd minutes and we will score 4 more goals before full time ?! :oops:

I would really like to see that formation start the game. Starting with 1 striker at home is utter crap. I am sure that if we are somehow losing to this lot then we can depend on Mickey Mouse McLeish to make a couple of calculated substitutions in the 87th and the 91st minute to turn the game around. :?

You dont see team spirit on the pitch,thats in the dressing room and on the training ground. How do you work that out? :? Team spirit is how the players feel not how they play. Put it this way, reading this forum you know how the supporters feel,so how do you think the players feel ? Thats team spirit

If you look at it from another angle. Wigan are really down already..just waiting for the mathematics QPR have the worst fixture list of anyone at the bottom Wolves are not doing great and under their new manager look worse off Bolton, I saw them last week and they are crap I am sure that this season we will not need 40 points to stay up and I would say that we are safe already.

Bolton were sooooo bad at home that I predict a 2-0 win as long as we start with 2 strikers. Gabby and Weimann up front. We are at home so playing with only one striker is un-acceptable

Here are some more cons. the Dipsticks style of management has far reaching consiquences for the team,the club and for the supporters.Read on. 1-We have gone from an attacking team to a holding or defensive team 2-The teams attitude has gone from lets win to lets not lose 3-Team spirit must have gone down considering our position,our style of play and our results. 4-The team is getting used to not winning. 5-Apparently a draw is a decent result. 6-the lower down the league we are the harder it is ro attract decent players. I remember the days when Villa Park was a place opposition teams did not look forward to playing at. We could not beat the two bottom teams,for crying out loud ?! There is only one person to blame for all this ................... Mickey Mouse McLeish :evil:

What complete and utter bollocks! Youre seriously saying that Mcleish has coached the strikers not to score?! Trust me, i bet mcleish is as frustrated as many a Villa fan. Seeing all those chances go to waste has **** all to do with management. Having that view just shows what a bitter, twisted anti-ginger fan you really are. First of all, I admit I am an anti -ginger fan.The reason for that is because of what he is doing to my/our team,it is a long time since we played this badly. As for my post.You have either mistaken what I have said or you dont understand what I am trying to say.I said that the players have a different "mindset" and that is why they are having problems scoring. You cant spend 8 months bieng a defensive team in the Premier League and then overnight change into an attacking one ?! Attack and defence are at opposite ends of the scale,you cant change from one to the other just like that.In other words no he is not coaching the strikers not to score but he is coaching everyone to be more defensive and thats why scoring is harder.

I am surprised that they are in 4th position,given the start they had,BUT if they lose RVP for any reason they are in big trouble

Brett will be a decent signing,he will need to get used to the pace of the English game but once he has done that he should be ok.He is an attack minded player, so thats good.I am from Perth West Australia so I have seen Brett play quite often for the Socceroos,he wont let us down.

There is nothing to worry about this term. Wigan are near enough to out already,Bolton are crap ( I watched them last week at home ) and QPR havent got a hope in hell given their fixture list

What a load of bollocke.............inspired substutions ?! You dont bring subs on in the 82nd and 90th minute to change a game He was just lucky

Bolton Vs QPR was the early game, so I watched that before the Villa game and Bolton were crap, AND they were at home. If we can,t put more than 1 past that lot then there is something seriously wrong. Play 4-4-2 with Gabby and Weiman up front and we will murder them.

very true didnt we have 23 shots vs QPR a month ago. its a lot better than at start of the season and if people took off their anti-mcleish blinkers they could see it no blinkers, just watching game after game. to be fair it couldnt have been much worse than the start of the season but doesnt mean now is satisfactory by any means. Instead of having 46 shots at goal and only 2 going in,I would prefer it if we had only 3 shots at goal and 2 went in. Surley what matters most is how many shots go in ?! I mean if you blast one 20 feet over the bar it still counts as a shot on goal,not a very good one but a shot at goal none the less.So the point I am trying to make is that I am not interested in watching us have 46 shots at goal and the goalie does not even have to try to save any of them. :oops:

Bolton Vs QPR was the early game last week so I watched it before the Villa game and Bolton are crap. And this was at home.If we cant put more than 1 goal past them then there is something seriously wrong.
