ASTON VILLA fans have stepped up their campaign against the proposed appointment of former Birmingham boss Alex McLeish by spraying graffiti around the club's training ground.
Alongside the sign of the Bodymoor Heath complex a Villa supporter has daubed the words: "Bluenose scum not welcome!"
McLeish caused uproar on the blue side of Birmingham after resigning from the St Andrew's hot seat via email at the start of the week.
But that was nothing compared to the outrage being expressed on chat forums and directly to the club when McLeish was installed as favourite to replace Gerard Houllier at Villa Park.
Villa director Charles Krulak responded to the criticism with an abrupt statement in which he said: "The uproar over McLeish is uncalled for.
"He has proved he can manage in the big leagues - just imagine what he could do if he was with an owner who supported him."
That plea has obviously fallen on deaf ears as our picture shows.
