Spent 30 million at Sunderland, built his own squad and didn't last long.
Was awesome while he was here, of course.

Ha ha, that's class. Does smack a little of cup final though, rather than JPT 3rd round.

Di Canio in would be ridiculous. Might gain us some short term success but with his scatter gun approach to signings and the fact he's a complete loose cannon, it will always end in tears one way or another.
People really need to learn this lesson. Wanting to get Dux back is like blowing all your wages on a Friday night, then remembering you haven't paid the rent.

it's more than that, we haven't got any money left this season, it's all been spent. so he couldn't bankrupt us , and wouldn't be allowed to under power anyway.
but he wouldn't have a team to field within a week, we have what - 16 available players? he'd have fallen out with 6 of those by Friday!

good to hear Barry is out of hospital
concussion means footy is a no no for a week or two to avoid a second blow I'd imagine

Can someone who actually went to the game actually confirm how he played, we seem to have veering opinions that he is a conference player then other say how well he has played?

Just a pity that I look at the Bull and the first thought I get is why do they have a banner of Monty Burns?

I was big fan of Di Canio, but anyone wanting him back or think he would even come back is an idiot.
That's like wanting Sam Parkin, or Rory Fallon back.
Oh.

Slightly dodgy sending-off. If Turnbull had gone down like the Oxford player did after barging into him, it would have been a penalty.

I'm still none the wiser as to how that's a sending off offence.

Great keeping for the 2nd, even worse defending for the 1st

Di Canio in would be ridiculous. Might gain us some short term success but with his scatter gun approach to signings and the fact he's a complete loose cannon, it will always end in tears one way or another.
Di Canio would come in, do a brilliantly bizarre press conference about how happy he is to be 'home' and looking forward to working with the squad. Making this point would take several hours. He'd then take charge and fall out with half the squad, for a variety of reasons, they are not fit enough/ willing to work hard enough/ they don't do exactly what he says at every second of the day/ one of them has a new born baby they seem keen on. Some of the 'reject's would be so psychologically scarred by him, they'll take years to recover. He'll then let Power know, via the local media he's been expressly forbidden from talking to, that he needs a whole new team, Power will refuse and he'll storm off in a huff, taking more from the back offices than those Channel 5 bailiffs ever managed as he goes. This whole process would take less time than the Press Conference.
