I know I should probably appreciate his efforts but my honest reaction to reading that he's going was a surge of relief.
He tried but he wasn't very good at the end of the day. Or at 3pm on a Saturday.

We never really replaced him, did we? We ended up always having him in the team, its not his fault that his legs were going, while we failed to replace him.
No but all the times he got caught ball watching and numerous other basic mistakes were.
Switching off, giving away needless free kicks, you name a rookie mistake and he's still making them. No upper body strength either.
Yeah no lower body strength either haha.
I don't want to be too harsh on him because he did try. I think to an extent I've never forgiven him for his (strongly alleged if not known fact) role in getting Di Canio sacked. I've no great love for Paolo but you can't have players doing that.
Agreed only I liked Paolo. Having players going on like that he never had a chance. he wasn't in charge for 20 games. Rude awakening and Big John spat his dummy. No doubt with the likes of Wickham, Catts and Fletcher egging him on. Was ashamed of our club then yet most of our fanbase seemed just fine with it the dodgy ****s.
Surely the order of the words is wrong. It should read:
I'm ****. Here to **** up.
Glad he's gone, he's heen a bit of a liability over the last couple of years but it's not his fault that we haven't had anyone better to replace him with. Best of luck to him and best of luck to Reading because they're going to need it with big john in the team.

In all honestly my recollection of the time was that most of the fanbase were annoyed at the players for going behind Paolos back rather than fine with it.
That was tempered by most people thinking Paolo was a nutter and being glad he was gone.
That is a remarkable enough stat that I had to go and check to make sure it wasn't a mistake.
He left Man Utd in 2011 (and we hadn't beaten them for 5-6 seasons) and we promptly comfortably beat them 3-0 the following season.
He went to you guys and made his professional debut on 27th August. We beat you 1-0 the previous weekend and I think it may well have been the last time we won against you guys.
I never knew he was our hoodoo! Hope we don't get Reading in the cup now!
initially everbody was shocked and unimpressed but once details came out about training and diets and what not he quick became out most hated manager ever, well, that is until moyes came along.
PDC was right about almost everything though, and as time moves on and years go by it's getting safer to say PDC was correct without somebody jumping on you.
Well I bloody didn't.Agreed only I liked Paolo. Having players going on like that he never had a chance. he wasn't in charge for 20 games. Rude awakening and Big John spat his dummy.
