November 27, 200717 yr That's really pissed me off - he was doing so well with Scotland, and a move to Birmingham can only be a step down. Bad move, Eck!
November 27, 200717 yr I can understand if someone wants to quite while he's on top but I really feel bad for Scotland. He should have stayed during the world cup qualifications too.
November 27, 200717 yr I think it is a big mistake by both parties. For me McLeish is better suited to international football where he doesn't have the opportunity to build squads and his role is to get the best out of what is at his disposal. At Rangers he started well with the squad provided to him but slowly but surely it deteriorated and he made one strange decision after another in terms of playing people out of position.
November 28, 200717 yr Great!!!!!!!!!!! hat a h*t sow thisis. McLeish doing well, Scotland going in the right direction,and then he leaves for Brum? And trub at into the wounds, the name that they are linking us with is Billy Davies??? BigEck can head backto Aberdeen or the Hibees for all I care
November 28, 200717 yr Okay, I Know that this might sound ridiculous, but what about Sir red Nose for Scotland?
November 28, 200717 yr He has always said he never wanted to do the job again. It would be ridiculous, but not unimaginable, for the SFA to appoint Davies . Other names in the frame might be Moyes, Strachan, Sturrock, McCallister and maybe a very outside bet on someone like McCoist (they would need to drag him way from Ibrox by the ears though)
November 28, 200717 yr If i was a gambling man i would be going for a certain Mr Craig Levein to replace him.
November 28, 200717 yr So Birmingham now have Mcleish ex Rangers manager and Villa have O'Neil ex Celtic manager. could be quite a derby.
