Benwell Lad Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 So, Di Canio gets the bullet from a fourth Division Club because he's a fucking lunatic and now the macums want him to be their manager. Canny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 di Canio will surely go down well with the EDL in that part of the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhoywhonder Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Mackems have well and truly given up on the whole 'classy club' mantra with Di Canio on the way... di canios polotics are not actually facist, the media makes it something its not. I can't say I'd be gutted if them deals finished. I don't want to invest in Africa and Mandela means nothing to me. I really don't give a monkeys about Di Canio's beliefs I honestly couldn't give a s***. But don't worry, they aren't all new fascist sympathisers.... Blokes politics religion or colour should not come into it Well said hank....shame your new boss doesn't agree! http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=770259#ixzz2P8hjPpwA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 As a comparison, Celta fans recently forced their chairman to withdraw an offer to Salva Ballesta (also a fascist sympathizer), when he was about to be appointed Ass Man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I imagine Spain actually having experienced fascism not so long ago probably accounts for more outrage, over here suspect it'll be slightly brushed aside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 He just promoted a League 2 side. To me, it stinks of "getting a guy with a big name and an authoritarian streak to put the players in line" type move. Like Sounness or Shearer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Ignoring the fact he is a fascist, what exactly has he done to be highly rated in football as a manager? Enjoys courting the media and being centre of attention. One thing's for sure, their lot will be riled up in 2 weeks time. Could end up being a blood-bath.

Dokko Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 DiCanio is an even shitter appointment than McClaren, wow, this is totally stupid of them. This really is like appointing souness after bobby, one extreme to another, can't see anything but a total disaster. Also it's no wonder IIA have decided to end their sponsorship while Milliband moves to New York Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 forgetting the facism thing theres more than enough evidence to suggest he's an egotistical head case just from Swindon and little proof he's the kind of man you want to bring in to save your club, him being appointed maybe might help West Ham if they were in this sort of situation just because being a club legend might get everyone onside (I doubt it though), but Sunderland?
