East Yorks Owl Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Just watched the above episode covering Di Canio. They discuss with him his spell at Wednesday and he says that Big Ron was one of the few managers who knew how to handle him. You can tell Di Canio respected him, which makes Ron’s departure all the more annoying. I reckon Atkinson could have built a team around Carbone and DI Canio. I’m also not convinced the club would have got rid of Di Canio after the Alcock incident if Ron had still been in charge. I started watching Wednesday in the late 80s and would have to say Di Canio is the most technically gifted footballer I’ve seen in a Wednesday shirt. He obviously was a slightly flawed character, but have to say he was a joy to watch when on his game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelcityowlsfan Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Whatever you think of how he left us, he was a seriously gifted player. I know we have Fessi but Di Canio and Carbone were a class above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was even worse than that. It was Trevor Brooking who expressed his outrage and said Di Canio should never play in the Premier League again. Guess who was West Ham manager and relying on Di Canio to save them from relegation about three years later? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I think the only thing we have in common with United our hatred of WHU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asteener1867 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Great player..Loved watching him, but I'm not blinded by what he did. Wilson bottled it? Board bottled it? What choice did they have?...He pushed a ref over and got banned for it...Like every other bugger who's done it... Wednesday fans even went to the hearing, After the hearing Di Canio and the club accepted the 11 game ban and DiCanio said he was looking forward to returning to the club, the club said they were looking forward to his comeback He didn't turn up did he?
