He is a Fascist, which means he is a Right Wing - anti Left Wing believer, so he is completely opposite to beliefs of the vast majority of the Sunderland supporters.
Sunderland is, and always has been, a working class club supported by politically hardened Left Wing people who are as hard as nails and will not be afraid to vote with their feet if Di Canio doesn't achieve immediate results.

Should be an interesting month or so.
Owned by a hedge fund president, dyed-in-the-wool, capitalist. They don't seem overly principled about accepting his money

Wont last long.
Controversy will happen regularly.
It's already started.
Why did he come out and say he's faschist?
Could have shut up abOut it.
Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Nothing per se, and I see where you're coming from.
But coaching involves the whole package these days.
Attracting negative publicity for your club whereby sponsors have expressed major concerns, can adversely affect the club, it's funding and it's ability to source top players etc.
With all the pc bushit these days, it does matter. (unfortunately )

The guy who appointed PdC is a multi-billionaire, so I don't think funding will be an issue somehow.
It's hard to imagine that the Durham Miners Union are kicking in more than Ellis Short. Tell the socialists where to stick their banner.

There's the problem with modern football - the fans will be there well after short and di canio have gone.

Sounds like a case for one of these freedom type groups.
How do you take up a case against against "customers" though? You can't force them through the turnstile or checkout.
Customers may not be the right label in this case, it seems however politicians and the media as well as other organisations are overtly driving a campaign of discrimination against a foreign worker in the UK due to his political beliefs.
Is this in contravention of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights? Which I believe the United Kingdom is a signatory to?

Don't be silly, that doesn't count for any right wing causes. People have been sacked in England for being members of the BNP. One couple were even refused to be foster parents as they were members of the UKIP, which is makes no judgement on race/colour etc..
Not to turn this into a political discussion, but it's always seemed perverse to me that so many hate Hitler for his extreme views and the millions that he killed, yet they laud Stalin, despite his extreme views and the many more millions that he killed.
Communism and fascism are opposite sides of the same coin.

sunderland has to be the prime example of this. Hate di canio for his views but happy to celebrate mandella day.
What a game. Newcastle unlucky to have a goal ruled offside but it was Sunderland's day. All 3 goals were crackers. It looks like the players are behind Di Canio.

Yes, that was unlucky, but the handball at the other end about 3 minutes later was just as unlucky.
Good to see players finally living up to their potential. He has all the right ideas at the minute. Sess taking players on, and Johnson on the right and Mclean on the left is brilliant.

Is that Mignolet's best effort at a fascist salute? Needs to get the arm straighter and the hand flatter, maybe it's the gloves
