    WHS shameless (Millicrap)

    De Canio may have unsavoury views - although he (De Canio) doesn't seem too sure what they are - I hope he's better at football management than political theory.

More amazing is that the Sunderland fans haven't been up in arms previously for having a member of the ex-Government that nearly destroyed the country on their Board.

    Strange that the good people of Swindon were never up in arms when Di Canio was appointed Robins' manager.

    Indeed, our Paolo was a bit of a folk hero in these parts.

    I had forgotten how much of a fanny Alcock looked when Di Canio pushed him...

    Can there ever be such a thing as an acceptable openly right wing person in the UK? Outwith the royals obviously.

    I think the Italian definition of fascism is slightly different to the all encompassing "he hates blacks and gasses jews" definition we have. Not that the public notices.

    started a topic Paulo Di Canio

    Paulo Di Canio

    He has been appointed manager of Sunderland FC.

    David Milliband has resigned from the Sunderland board in protest.

    Why all the fuss about him being a fascist? Would anyone be bothered if he was a communist?
