Alex McLeish poised to leave Aston Villa


The 53-year-old former Scotland manager said his farewell to the Villa players on Monday morning. Villa have endured a poor Premier League campaign, finishing just above the relegation zone after winning only four of 19 games at home. The club have yet to make an official announcement about McLeish, who left close rivals Birmingham City to join Villa in June last year. McLeish faced widespread protests from Villa supporters after leaving relegated Birmingham to take over from Gerard Houllier 11 months ago . Villa, who won only seven league matches all season, effectively secured their Premier League status with a 1-1 draw against Tottenham in the penultimate game of the season.
