Perhaps Di Canio can invite the Football Association to the County Ground to explain their actions?

I've not heard a post-match rant like that after a victory, ever.

Let us not forget he is still grieving for his father,it seems to me though a short break would do him good.
He seems to have made hard work his goal since his dad passed away....for me he is the best thing since sliced bread,love him to bits and his workrate and determination on/off the pitch is outstanding.
He looked like a break would do him good.....only a small one though Cheesy

So glad he's ours.  But I agree he could do with winding down as well.  I hope he's relaxing right now, reading the Sunday papers with a nice coffee.  If you are, Paolo, turn to the sports pages.  The league table makes good reading this morning.

If what he says is true, no he didn't.

Either way, the way he went ballistic won't go down well with the F.A. suits. He might be missing for Leicester and/or Southend.

leefer makes a fair point above.

If you read other forums apparently he is always doing something wrong.  

He stands up in his technical area and tries to get messages across to his players.  WANKER
Sometimes he gets angry.  BASTARD
He waves his hands about a bit like he might be a bit, well, you know, foreign or summink.  YUCK
He tries to get his players to pass to each other.  TWAT
And sometimes the national media want to talk to him unlike manager john smitthies (Is he a football manager in division 2?  I have no idea.  Maybe I made it up, but Im sure one of the succession of burly chaps sitting in the opposition dugout may have been called that).  EVIL SCUM

He truly is the devil incarnate who is bringing the noble art of clogging a pigskin 60 yards for the big bloke to flick on to the little bloke to shin it past the oppositions fat bloke into disrepute.

In short, no PDC didnt do anything wrong.

Hope he puts his feet up today and relaxes. He did look totally drained.

Take Boss for a walk and cook yourself a nice meal Paolo ! Smiley

Let's not develop a siege mentality though.  If fans of other clubs want to focus on our manager, let them.  But I certainly don't want to focus on fans of other clubs focussing on our manager.

One objective this season: promotion.  If we manage this (and the signs are good at the moment), then the gripes and whinges of a few disgruntled Torquay/Oxford fans won't even register.  In Oxford's case, their own campaign has started to stutter in recent weeks...so an up-tick on the bile-ometer was always likely.  We knew that appointing PDC would attract attention.  The important thing is not to be distracted by this.

A siege mentality is not always a bad thing - Fergie's made his career out of it.

Indeed, let us think is Swindon v World if it makes us bond stronger.
