Another promotion and then get into the play offs in the Championship like Macari did before he is there.
And maybe a little bit of financial engineering

Town were in rag order, both on and off the pitch, when Lou took over. He managed to bring in plenty of cash in transfer fees. I'm not sure PDC would put up with, "Sorry Paolo, but there's no money for a loan this month as we have to build some steps in front of the North Stand". Lou woke the whole Town up, which is probably why many in my generation (late 30's) are Town fans. He left a positive legacy I hope PDC can do the same.

I think it's possible that PdC could do the same. God knows we need something to galvanise the people of Swindon to get off thier arses and watch their local team, instead of 'supporting' some premiership club.

Like paying loan players wages with his own wages?

I used to think it mattered, I used to think that football mattered, but does it? bollocks, not compared to how people matter.

This is why it is essential that the board get the ground redevelopment moving while the the team on the pitch are going in the right direction. We need to be self sufficient.

What has politics got to do with football? That's right, fuck all.

There's a cliche in football that you're as good as your last result...at the moment PdC is on a high because we've turned round the home form with some eye catching results....twas only a few weeks ago that some on here, wanted to see the back of him, because of his idiosyncratic media presentation re the Board and perceived mistreatment of certain players like Caddis and Connell.

Spot on Reg. Personally, I really love what he's trying to do here.

Macari is streets ahead of di canio. The latter has the potential to close the gap though

Would argue the betting fiasco took plenty of Browny points away from Lou.....lets not forget he did contribute a little to a double relegation.
Allegedly.

Au contraire...the two are inextricably linked, maybe you could do an essay on the subject. The impact of the Reformation on Hugo Meisl's wunderteam in 1930's Austria and the rise of fascism.
FIFA get many things wrong but their no tolerance stance on politics in football is one thing they get right and plenty of countries have been banned as a result. Sure you can find arguable examples to prove otherwise but in general politics has nothing to do with football and pretty much everyone agrees with it. Whilst not wanting to reignite the argument I've still seen nothing to suggest Paolo has the fascist leanings that many claim.
