What a boring appointment.
Nutcase.Sky Sports News are claiming that Alex McLeish will be named as new Villa boss within the next 24 hours. Presumably links to Ben Foster and Roger Johnson/Scott Dann will follow within 24 minutes.
Proven and successful? Where? In Scotland? Doesn't count.He is a proven, successful manager and could do well for them. He needs to get some good results quickly or else he will be under huge pressure from the fans. They aren't the most patient bunch. If he does well for them they'll forget very quickly that he's ex Birmingham.
He is gutsy, the amount of stick he has taken from both sides is phenomenal. Kind of makes you wander whether it's worth it, but Villa are one of the bigger clubs so it's a fantastic opportunity for him.
