Ger_onimo 20,488 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 It was reported that both Danny Hollands and Chris Martin had extended their loan deals. Did that change?I'm sure we'd have heard if he'd actually done it. Also, was the very fact that he made that offer not pretty indicative of the financial dire straits the club were/are in? Why the sudden surprise?I would also question why anyone would make a statement to say that they are thinking about doing something. What did he hope to achieve, given that the window is now shut and what's done is done? Why not just resign? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopter 310 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Ah the old he played for Celtic therefore he is a cunt regardless. Can't we get a cool and funny name like dumbert or O'Squeal for him?To be fair Dell - he is a total cunt.Di Fannio Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't we get a cool and funny name like dumbert or O'Squeal for him?Who said, or even suggested that? I'm the only one slagging him and have done so based purely on his behaviour at Swindon, without any mention of Celtic. Maybe read the thread before you insert your tongue back up the OP's hole.

What did he hope to achieve, given that the window is now shut and what's done is done? Why not just resign?Why the sudden surprise when a player is suddenly sold? Are you for real? Here's some more testimony which appears to strengthen Di Canio's claims:"It was my understanding that it was for the best interests of the club that they sold me. It was very sharp," Ritchie told BBC Wiltshire."I didn't know much about it until the last couple of hours. I was on my way home from training when I got diverted to Bournemouth. I got a call from my agent who said it was part of the deal for the club to be sold," Ritchie added. "I had great times at Swindon. It was brilliant when the gaffer came in. To get promotion was an amazing achievement. This year we've started well and look like strong contenders to get promoted. "I leave with a heavy heart. I'll miss everyone there, especially the gaffer. I felt like he helped me a lot and made me the player I am today. I've got a lot to thank him for.Why didn't he just resign? I don't know why, but once again that is an aside to the point I was making. Start your own 'Di Fannio is a cunt.' thread and I'm sure that you will get the answers you are after.

I just don't see what is refreshing about Di Canio coming out with these comments. If he's that unhappy, he knows where the door is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you get the memo?He may well go, he may be sacked, or it may turn out to be a storm in a teacup that all blows over. Either way, the fans are being kept aware of what is happening within the club, and for me that is the main thing. It was only intended as a football story for grown ups, nowt else.

Hossy 42 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Very refreshing to see. People need to get over the fact he was a tarrier as there is no link to him in his current role. If it was any other Lower League Manager folk would be applauding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
