Di Canio

MSE7

lol. He is Bonkers!!

Anyone see him today go over to the Sunderland fans?

I wanna know why he sold the sessengon. Class player

jamescafc

Seemed like he was holding his hands up and saying sorry. Only saw a glimpse on SSN. Perhaps other managers should be as quick to admit they were wrong.

stonemuse

Either that or he was saying goodbye

Danny Addick

He said Sessengion wasn't showing enough effort for the cause.

jamescafc

No manager is stupid enough to say goodbye, waiving the right to a ridiculous pay off.

MSE7

Yeah I think he was. But then I think you should address the players first? board won't like it.

SELR_addicks

He's favourite on most bookie sites to get the sack.

I don't think he cares about the money

WSS

Wish he was our manager, look how passionate he is - doesn't just stand on the touchline with his hands in his pockets looking clueless.

Oops. Wrong login/site.

WSS

Les Reed managed a premier team as well.

SACKED

AdamAddick

BIG_ROB

This could set tongues a wagging

Athletico Charlton

Lol. Amazed he lasted as long as he did. He's a tosser and an awful manager.

Mendonca In Asdas

Seems like a firework waiting to go off , didn't think he'd last till Christmas.

ValleyGary

Lasted long!

Read a rumour earlier today from Sky Italia (only source that said Di Canio was about to be sacked too) that Mancini was in talks to take over.

DiscoCAFC

Ridiculous decision

Sky Italia are pretty reliable usually.

David Milliband I've heard....

Disappointed in Di Canio since he's been at Sunderland to be honest. Seemed to have changed his ruthless approach he had at Swindon to a more professional approach and it hasn't worked for him. Should've stuck to his guns and ignored the fans / media.

jimmymelrose

The first time I agree with an early season sacking. He may be passionate and animated, and I believe that he's a great motivater, but he isn't cut out for management at that level. And there's no way I'd want him ahead of Chris Powell even at a lower level.
