Hi there, If you're sick of football culture ruining our sport, think footballers should be better role models for our children and think Footballers should have more respect for our football clubs and our hard earned pennies. Then show the PFA what you think by signing this petition and potentially trigger a revolution that can change our beloved sport for the better. Please, if you choose to sign, state your team and show it's in the national interests and for the good of football. https://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/back-paolo-di-canio If you disagree please respect the petition and not turn it into a debate board. Thank you kindly.
I'm not sure where exactly where I stand on this. Whilst managers should have the right to fine misbehaving players, but I also agree with the PFA, that a manager cannot be 'a law unto himself', and there should probably be someone to review/ regulate these kind of decisions.
I actually agree with the sentiment but I'm not backing the fascist Di Canio for anything. I also think players will only misbehave if they're not being treated and managed in the right way so ridiculing them in public was a mistake.
Hamps - agreed Johm Cobbald and Sir Bobby Robson. We will never see a duo like that again. Pure class.
