Paolo's thinly-veiled swipe at mentality of youth system
           
           



  THE “hostile environment” that exists at Swindon Town is not at boardroom level but in other areas of the club, according to manager Paolo Di Canio.

Hardly thinly veiled!

He just might be right though.

Its not exactly well hidden that there is not much love between Bodin and Paolo.

But is there a need to air this in public? Paolo thinks there is and he is not backward in saying what he thinks!

PdC's job is on the line if the first team fails to peform.

If he feels a subordinate employee is not doing his job properly and therefore may well affect his ability to get the first team to perform I reckon he's well within his rights to try and sort it out.

Just because PB is a long standing, well-liked former player shouldn't protect him from criticism.

I can imagine our club backsliding into its usual non-entity status if/when PdC leaves if the foundations haven't been laid for the incoming manager to build on.

He's not being an arse for the hell of it - he genuinely does what does and says what he says for the good of the club.

Sounds to me that PDC thinks Bodin is sniping behind his back internally at the club, and not doing his job as well as PDC thinks he should...

We might well have players who were "ready" coming through at 18 if the big clubs didn't poach them before they reached that age. Stevens and Henshall come to mind from recent years, unfortunately this is pretty much the reality of football at the moment.

Re hashed interview from last week.

Indeed and the Advertiser seems to be doing this a lot (either that or Paolo keeps making the same statement regarding Wray in various interviews!)

But its pennies from heaven for the Advertiser they know that there is an issue and thus I imagine youth and Bodin is a fertile line of questioning everytime they speak to him!

Not saying that it should be aired in public when it definitely shouldn't but I am also getting a little bored of the Advertiser stirrring the shit constantly.

No it's not. It's a report of his post-match comments. Might help if you read the article before shooting the messenger

The questions were being asked by Sean Hodgetts, BBC Wilts, the Adver are just reporting what was said. If you're getting bored of it, fine, don't read it, but it's Di Canio who's shit-stirring, not the BBC and not the Adver. They're just reporting what the manager says, not their fault he keeps banging the same drum

Agreed which is why I rarely bother reading his missives anymore (that and the fact it gives me a migrane trying to understand and follow what he is trying to say).

Smiley Fair enough. Seems a bit harsh to accuse the Adver of shit-stirring then?
