Fans' Verdict - Di Canio?

[John Peel]

Untested in the Premiership. It would be a joke.

[Haag Royal]

No - plain and simple

[winchester_royal]

Lets be honest here. If he takes over, gets us playing nice football, and gets good results..we'll all be very glad to have him.

Any manager who comes in will have positives and negatives, the true test will be how they perform in the role. Whoever comes in should get our support.

I'd draw the line at a fascist personally.

well things certainly would never be dull with Di Canio around . He's one of the best players to have played in the Premiership and the only problem I see with him is that he expects his players to mnatch the high standards he set as a player.

Hello my Reading Chums looks like Paolo is going to get the gig enjoy the ride. Here are a few things you should know to help you get on with your new boss.

1. Training for your players will be hard and I mean hard. Think SAS selection process.

2. If you have any big time charlie type players they are finished. Its Paolos way of your out (Or fascism as its otherwise known).

3. Paolo is basically an exact clone of the London Gangster Frankie Frazer 40 years ago.

4. Paulo has a team of about 6 people who will have varies jobs and titles their only use or importance is to manage Paolo. The most important of these people is Phil Spencer. Without Phil spencer there is no Paolo. Phil spencer will be the most important person at your club. You may not believe this now but you will find out why soon enough.

5. Paolo will think he is bigger than your club.

6. When Paolo is quiet be afraid be very afraid. If Paolo has a rant/meltdown which is about probably around 1 in every 3 games this is good it is very good it means next game you will always get a result.

7. Paolo is more passionate than your most passionate fan(might not be for very long though).

8.Paulo does tend to say f*ck quite a lot in interviews. Generally our local radio reporters tended to let it go but this could cause problems on match of the day etc.

9. Paulo will spend and spend big. Dont be surprised if he signs someone for 10 million on a monday then by wedensday says "Well he isnt as good as i thought he was" and then blames it on the player. Paolo would also spend 10 million on a player and deliberately keep him on the bench for 5 weeks to show him who is boss.

10. The Fascism thing really wont be an issue. Lets be honest If you get a draw at Old Trafford or the emirites you will all be following the fascist. I mean that as a fickle football fan and in the nicest possible way.

Welcome to management by hand grenade.

oxf*rd OFF DI CANIO! I WILL GIVE UP MY SEASON TICKET IF HE ARRIVES












then probably swallow my pride, and start going again

[southbank1871]

The only good thing about Di Canio getting the job is when he chins Guthrie for stepping out of line. And bans any of the players saying flames.

[MmmMonsterMunch]

Do not want this cnut at our club.

[Matt de K]

Phil Spencer??!!?? I suppose he does find everyone bargain quality houses, I can see why he'd be important. Wouldn't want Paulo ending up living in Whitley

[andrew1957]

If Di Canio is appointed I won't be attending any more matches this season.

Not good enough for Swindon and massively not good enough for us.

[Royal Lady]

They'll all be clamouring for the door come the end of the season.

[CayeneMatt]

............. And bans any of the players saying flames.

I'd be with him on that one.

[bigdon]

Do not want this cnut at our club.

Nor did any of us to begin with but it really is great fun until it becomes a bit ott
