Adver News: Out-of-options Di Canio fears relegation

[random_five]

Fuck that. He grates at times, and lord knows I don't suck up to him as much as others do, but wanting him gone? Who the fuck are these mongs?

Agree with this post, can't put it any better..

[kerry red]

I would like to know who these people would want to replace PdC.

Another rookie? One of those band of managers who just seem to do the rounds and achieve fuck all?

PdC has pulled our club up from its bootstraps - and not just on the pitch - so be careful what you wish for, guys

Why people continue to employ these wankers is beyond me. As you say there's a band if them and stay for 2-3 years max and then move on.

I love the way we have historically given youth a chance in terms of managers and although Wilson came close our successes have always come from rookie managers.

I couldn't care less what he does as long as we are getting results. I've always said that. This is why I don't understand people who have said they actually want him out. We're 7th after winning the league below last season. It's far from a disaster in fact if anything it's pretty decent. If he was to go we'd end up with another manager like Wilson from the usual list of candidates who float between jobs every few years. No thanks.

This season just doesn't seem as much fun as last year although at the same point we are doing better.

It would be good if PDC came out and praised the team for once, rather than publicly bollock them.

Agree 100% with both.

People seem to be forgetting the excruciatingly slow start we made last season.  Given that we have an almost entirely new team again this year, I can't see why this is surprising.  Although I would say that, should our ascent continue, I would hope that we don't have to buy a million players every year as it's simply unsustainable.

Blimey, I arrive back from Porto (top place, and Super Bock do a stout which is very drinkable), to this!

di Canio has (in my opinion) got a better squad than Wilson had to take us to the playoff final, than King for the playoff semis and even McMahon when he won the title.  And yet he moans about HIS squad?  Get a grip.

It was great to win the league last season, and we've played some lovely football, but ride a roller-coaster for too long as you can start to feel a bit ill.  Do I want di Canio to leave? No.  But if he did I wouldn't care.  Someone, a few weeks ago, likened being managed by di Canio to being managed by a twelve year old girl, and I think that's right.  Time to grow up and use the impressive squad he's been allowed to assemble, and stop moaning.

Anyone else just think he wants to go to Mount Splashmore?

Not true...how about Bert Head, Danny Williams or Fred Ford.  Our success with rookie managers, came from spending money we didn't actually have....Paolo wants to maintain this position, the Board can't allow it...hence the current impasse, and sense of impending doom.

Di canio has been great for many reasons, but with the budget he's had i think plenty of potential managers would have done aswell. We won a shit league after throwing alot of money at it and now things aint as easy, this is where a manager shows his worth. The embargo is down to his spending and the purse strings have been loose. He really has nothing to moan about.

Except all the injuries..

But every team gets injuries?  It's not as if we've got a tiny squad.  There should be enough players of a sufficient ability to cover.  If there's not, then why are they here?

I meant when the world wasn't in black and white.  

Perhaps I should have said success has mostly come from rookie managers.

I don't have to list the rookie managers who have had success, you know them and wasn't Swindon Bert Head's first job?

Just like now then.

What success did we have with Fred Ford then Reg?

Would PdC have the cajones for something like this?
