Flip Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 There is some absolute nonsense being spouted in this thread "football and politics are separate" FFS Though I disagree, I have no problem with those saying they should be separate but to ignore even something as close to home as the old firm is ridiculous. No is suggesting they are separate are they though? We are suggesting they should be separate. Football is a sport, its a global sport where kids go watching games, its entertainment. I don't see many club campaigning for politicians in elections, I don't see any club adopting an ideology. Football as a sport has grown from that time, nowadays it's more 'company politics' rather than real politics. It exists obviously, but that is what is dirty about the sport. In my opinion we only find clear evidence of politics in the highest governing body of football FIFA and Sepp Blatter. Like I said, most know there is politics involved in football, but I don't agree with you or Icke on how you suggest football works today. He's obviously of questionable character but I find this media driven furore intriguing as there was no backlash when oligarchs fresh from stealing billions of national wealth invested in the PL. There was some outrage. And people probably said "where was the outrage when Barclays sponsored the league?" And when people questioned that it would have been "where was the outrage when murdoch got his claws into the game?" You can't have a negative opinion on anything as long as someone can find something dubious you've not devoted exactly as many words and minutes to. True. As we all know the media love their buzz words and easy rabble rousing to stir up copy. This nutter is a fascist in many senses of the word, but people need to research 'the real Nazis' before they throw everybody down the well. They're outraged about a 'fascist' leader who has done nothing of wrong other than showing his colours. I mean even Mussolini man, some must forget he was an opportunist who swung from socialist to right-wing only for the consolidation of power. Di Canio is a mad man and I find it rather disturbing for sunderland fans to know that they've signed a league one manager rather than 'fascist' supporter.

Flip Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Also whoever said higher position in job validates his opinion must answer me, how Di Canio could possibly validate his opinion more as a Sunderland manager than a Swindon manager? He can't influence politics from his position and I'll be the first to say that he'll be sacked as soon as he voices his fascist views. People seem to be forgetting that he is going to coach a football side not start an uprising. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Has anyone got anything that shows how much Di Canio spent at Swindon comparative to other teams around them at the time?

Like I said, most know there is politics involved in football, but I don't agree with you or Icke on how you suggest football works today. Yes, at least one person did: You've just massively oversimplified the rivalry between Real and Barca. Well done. Your argument is that politics and sport should remain separate however they are not. No amount of hand wringing will change that. They're linked and forever will be. I'm sorry if that upsets you. I've also never once tried to prescribe a political leaning to NUFC. You've simply assumed I have. Yes they are man. We have 50K crowds made up of people from all walks of life and all political persuasions. PDC's politics are irrelavent and like the above poster said we should be more concerned about any positive impact he has in terms of motivation despite his weak managerial cv.
