Got this from the horses mouth or near as damn it! (no not that horse. ) Di Canio is at the training ground till at least 10 pm doing research and watching videos of games. It seems he is ordering takeaway from one of our leading Italian restaurants on a regular nightly basis, delivered to his office. It seems the guy takes his job very seriously. He will be asking lots of questions of our players and I don't think he will suffer non triers lightly.
Any idea where he is staying Cest? One of my mates reckons he is on the seafront but has nowt to back it up.

There are a couple of canny Italian Restaurant's down there like so it would tie in but I reckon he will be getting mobbed if it comes out exactly where. Has any manager ever made such a massive, gargantuan impact in such a short time here? I cant remember anyone in my lifetime that has taken the whole city by storm in the way he has. Obviously Sunday has been extraordinary circumstances but hell, he is a massive character for sure.
Cost me a fortune with my mates buying them drinks Reg, as I was the only one who had a big bet on us winning. Some of them had small bets on and drank their winnings same day. Hahahaha Quite a few of them are confident enough to have a punt against our bogie team this time round. I wonder if he will have N'diaye man marking Pienarr? That's what I would do.
Everton are a decent side and deserved their away draw at Arsenal tonight, so for that reason I'm predicting a tough 2-0 victory for the lads...
Don`t know how true but I heard he took the team back to the academy afterwards to analyse the match.
