The highly inflammatory move is likely to be met with an injunction from Birmingham City, McLeish’s former employers. They are demanding £5.4 million, in line with his contract, following his resignation by email on Sunday.
Birmingham do not expect McLeish to return as their manager but do want to receive recompense. They have already started the process of recruiting a replacement, drawing up a six-strong shortlist.
Yup, hire a manager who's only experience in the Premier League is relegation. Plenty of good managers in the lower divisions not getting the chances they deserve, and then people wonder why England doesn't have good managers?
The answer... they are all trapped in the Championship, League One and League Two.
and the say players have no loyalty..
