“After the Chelsea game finishes, we will think about the derby which counts for 1,000 games." THIS is what I've been waiting to hear before the derby. THIS is EXACTLY what needs to be said by the manager. Contrast this to the pre-derby statements from Bruce AND O'Neill...."We must treat it like any other game". I love Paulo Di Canio me like! Bring on the magpies FTM!!! http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport...beat-sworn-derby-enemeies-newcastle-1-5551931
Got to say that the positivity coming from the man is infectious. If it is rubbing off on us fans, what is it doing to the players? It feels like a big black cloud has lifted from the club and the sun is shining again.
Can;t argue - we're ion a scrapp - but I really do love PDC! He has been excellent every time he has spoken - the comment on another thread where a journalist had asked him about when he kicked the player up the backside and his retort was "Whicch one, I';ve done that 3 or 4 times" is awesome!!
Tough game this weekend where if we get anything it will be a massive bonus... Only after this game will then I myself to even think about the game with the Skunks..
