Aston Villa fan Chris Hearn is aiming to get 10,000 signatures on the petition, urging the club’s owners to act before it is ‘too late’. It is already one tenth of the way towards its target.
He says: “We have created a petition for the removal of Alex McLeish as manager of Aston Villa. We know that all fans have very different views on how we should approach trying to get rid of him, but one thing for sure is that now almost every fan wants him out.
All we are asking is for all fans of Aston Villa to sign the petition and when it reaches its target we will print it off and deliver it by hand personally to Paul Faulkner.
It might not make any difference and they might even bin it, but at least if had a petition with over 10,000 signatures they would have to realise that a significant number of fans have had enough.
Also if we manage to get a large number of signatures, it might be able to generate some media interest as well and gain the fans more publicity in our mission to get him out. But without the negative vibes that can be associated with protesting.
We believe that this is a peaceful and dignified way to let the club know how we feel, and all It will take is 1 minute to sign.”
