Paulo Di Canio

Just a question:

All the furore about Mr Di Canio being a self confessed fascist, would he get the same attention from the bandwagon if he had declared himself a communist?

Whats puzzling me about it all, Why when he was manager of Swindon - No furore?

Seems like double standards to me, Still nowt new wi the press that.

The media attention might be in response to David Millibands resignation as a director, regarding something he said years ago while playing football in Italy, it now appears politics is worming its way into football now

Thats exactly what i reckon it is.

I thought Milliband was going to resign from the Sunderland Board for the same reason he has given for resigning as an MP - he is taking up a job in the USA.
It appears to me that he is seeking an alternative reason for resigning, not the fact that he has now got a much more lucrative position - how could he meet his responsibilities as a director of Sunderland and an MP when he is working and living in the USA?

Di Canio has picked his first team..........

........ they are all right wingers

Probably publicity was a factor also.

Tevez has got away with driving while disqualified and without insurance banned 6 months, 250 community service, £1000 fine, wonder whether I'd have got the same treatment if it had been me, doubt it, but I'm not an high profile footballer.

Di Canio has said that he wants to turn Sunderland into a major force again and to conquer Europe................

Wonder if he's going to start with Poland ?
