Just been reading through this thread again. I think people are getting a little carried away. Di Canio did do a Roman salute to Lazio fans on several occasions but to think he would in England is completely ludicrous. Did you ever see him do it at Celtic, Sheff Wed, West Ham or Charlton He's a very passionate man and he grew up watching Lazio as one of their Ultras, living in a run down area of Rome. The salutes were stupid but he probably got caught up in the moment a little after stuffing Roma. To say he's a racist is even more ludicrous. I'm half way through his book at the minute, I recommend it.

If he just does whatever his adoring fans do, will he pick up that annoying fast hand clapping shite from the DRS?

Did you like the bit near the beginning when he's talking about sharing a bed with his older brother and feeling like it was his comfortable place. Sometimes he was so comfortable, instead of getting out of bed to use the toilet he would just piss the bed. I bet his brother loved him for that. Is that really who we want as our manager, a serial bedwetter?

Yeah I did find that a little bizarre ! He said his brother didn't mind either, strange family ! Nasty injury when he was 19 too. Nearly lost his leg.

Read the thread again, but more carefully. I never said he was racist. I asked if he was anti-Semitic. (might have been in a different thread though, I get so confused these days)

Wind your neck in, Ralphy didn't say you said he was racist.

Isn't anti-semitism a form of racism anyway?

"Swindon Town fans can now order a customized home shirt, complete with Di Canio 10 on the back! Although the new boss has retired as a player he has been handed the number 10 shirt for the entirety of the 2011/12 season."
Never heard of any club giving the non playing manager a squad number.
