Agreed, I hate Di Canio's political views, but I'd have no complaints if he did well at CCFC, and acted professionally and all the rest of. We're talking as if he's here now! :laugh:

He didn't resign because he was refused permission, not according to SSN, he had resigned before MR left. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11758/8508898/Paolo-Di-Canio-has-resigned-as-manager-of-League-One-side-Swindon-Town

Fair enough, but Di Canio wouldn't exactly stand up on the soapbox and start airing his nonsensical and racial views is he? Believe me, I was thinking about making an anti-fascist poster for Di Canio's arrival on the 2/3/13, just imagine if he's manager then!? If Di Canio muzzles his...

ZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Huh!? Oh, there's no evidence Paul Ince was 1st choice.

Ignore the roman part, in fact, don't, because the Roman Empire heavily influenced Mussolini and his foreign policy, Mussolini was definitely a racist and so is Di Canio, although there is no evidence of him being racist, if he keeps it to himself, it's bad he thinks like that, but at least he...

They did a good job in getting MR, so yeah probably.

You probably could've said before MR came, in fact, I hadn't even considered MR, because I literally forgot about him, until I heard he was in the last 3.

The 'Fascist salute' was used by Mussolini, who copied it off the Romans, which Hitler copied. Fascism is extreme nationalism (as well as an authoritarian stance to society) and Nazism, Italian Fascism and German Fascism are different in nature, lets not forget that. Di Canio isn't a nazi...

I hope you're right, but I think I smell BS tbh.

I'd approach, reluctantly, Di Canio. As much as I'd like Adkins, it's delusional to think he'll come here (would probably still approach him though) and Coyle, I'd doubt it. My personal favourite would be Robinson, again, v unlikely, he turned down Blackpool.

I don't think politics and football go well together, as a manager, I judge him on his previous results, which are good, I'd be happy for him to be our manager, so long he doesn't involve his politics with our football, which tbf to him, I don't think he's done that at Swindon. P.S. I'm...

Could be, but Carsley may have his own ideas, like Thorn when he came in, however, I don't think it's worth the risk, we should just get a new manager, new ideas implemented before preseason, whether or not we gain promotion, he can entrench his system into the players before the start of 13/14...

That rebate sounds 'fishy' to me, why should we pay 400k and get 100k back, why not just 300k with no rebates, my scepticism could be misplaced, but I just don't see the point, there's got to be a catch.

Fair enough. It's only 4 months less than the national average in 2010, and it's probably gone down even more, average is just 15 months, Coleman and Thorn had longer than this. http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/21052010/58/premier-league-managers-1-4-years-jobs.html

I'm quoting the figure MR gave.

Well I suppose you would if we're talking to zooologists. Oh, you meant the animals, probably would.

Thanks for clearing it up, he's officially 'really stupid'.

No, we have the rest of the season to play for, we can still get promoted, it's really close in the playoffs so if we get in the playoffs we could easily find ourselves knocking on the door of autos if results went our way. Why waste time I say.

Just out of curiosity, how do you know?

So did Mark Robins at Barnsley.
