ikri Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Sunderland and Di Canio aren't big enough to be able to get away with shit like this. Any player with any pedigree they go in for this summer would tell their agent to make sure they got more than the going rate anyway since they're naturally quite reticent to moving to the NE. When you consider they've got a right wing nutter who will cancel their holidays and fine them huge sums for any perceived indiscretion then they're going to have to chuck obscene sums at players to convince them to consider SAFC. Throw into the mix a few players who might now decide to take a cut in pay to get away from the manager & they could be in for a very painful summer.

It'll all be sweetness and light over the intervening months but once the season starts if they struggle there'll be hell on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I was always going to have it in for PDC given that he's managing that lot but I really do find this all the more funny and hope it goes tits up given the odious prat was allowed to slide across our pitch on his knees.

Ashley17 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Johnson has looked much better for Di Canio's methods unfortunately, we'll see how long that lasts though. Be interesting to see what happens if they end up with a well disciplined organised squad, but that's going to take a massive overhaul, and a lot of their players have no sale value Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 di Canio's Management by tabloid shock/horror style is going to be a great source of amusement to us as his uncontrolable ego brings all kinds of issues into the public domain for the world to chuckle at.

Sima Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Fuck me, he never shuts up, does he? This is going to backfire spectacularly, you cant fine someone two weeks wages for being twenty minutes late ffs. Who is going to go to a club where such a militant authority from a man who has achieved nothing in management is in existence? If anything, the only players they are going to get in are mercenaries who will move for the increased pay packet that Sunderland will have to pay making it a vicious circle.

Guest Slippery Sam Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I can see him going before we get rid of Pardew. They would be better off sacking him now tbh. As far as SAFC are concerned, mission has been accomplished i.e. they stayed in the PL to get the riches on offer next season. They can now afford to get rid of PDC - paying up his contract in the process - and move on to a more 'stable' manager before the sideshow/debacle gets any worse.

brummie Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Now they've survived, they are faced with the reality of having an unproven league one nutjob as their manager. That is going to be very interesting to watch next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I think Di Canio might be surprised by the lack of takers for his squad. I think he'll need to downsize the squad before being able to spend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 He will need players who are desperate to play in the PL, because you'd have to be mad to (a) join Sunderland and (b) join a team managed by Paulo Di Canio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
