rudemedic Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 He out managed Dickov totally today. Out-thought out-scouted and out-coached Dickov had no answer to him. If Swindon inexplicably let him go I'd have him here in a heartbeat. For example, an incident that summed it up for me was immediately after they scored. The entire team was going to be celebrating in their own half in the corner but DiCanio told Williams to tie his bootlaces in our half to stop us kicking-off. I doubt Dickov would have spotted it.

oafc-latics Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 wow that guy is passionate. I don't like him, but he grew on me today, always talking to his players and coaches. he's still a prick... but a bit less of one having seen the fella's enthusiasm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Wight Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) He's always gonna be a massive prick (unless he comes here and gets us promoted ofc) but he's a good manager nonetheless Edited December 15, 2012 by Jack Wight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I spent most of the 2nd half watching him rather than the game it was very entertaining his coaches on the bench must have earache listening to him as he seems to give them a running commentary I would have loved to have sat on that bench to hear what he said Swindon were the best team I've seen us play this season by far well organised first to the ball and their passing was very sharp it doesn't excuse the fact that we were none of those things our passing in the first half was utterly abysmal and we were second to the ball too many times not many players come out of that with much credit. A bad day at the office we've got to move on and focus on the next game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc-latics Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Swindon were the best team I've seen us play this season by far well organised first to the ball and their passing was very sharp wouldn't go that far, but you can see why they'll be up there at the end of the season. we made them look good though - all they had to do was be direct and give it to that ritchie who was a cracker of a left foot. let us cock about in the penalty area and there's an easy three points.

welshgaz Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Once quoted for saying I'm not racist but fascist. Is there a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Once quoted for saying I'm not racist but fascist. Is there a difference? Very much so. The Italian Fascist government was in place 10 years before Hitler, and never had much of a racial agenda. They murdered thousands of Ethiopians granted, but that was sort of expected in the day. They never had much enthusiasm for the rounding up of Jews especially. What they had in common was strongly socialist economics and a strong nationalist appeal.

Is there much difference in murdering either jews or Ethiopians seems like they are both racial agendas, if Fascism had succeeded there could well have been no rastafari, imagine a world without the music of Bob Marley, its the only thing to pacify the soul after a :censored: performance.

rudemedic Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Feck Franco Genocide- search for Guernica (it will probably take you to the same sites though) he is a sick bastard. If this country had a Franco a lot of members of this board would be in trouble. Franco didn't enter WW2 because he wasn't stupid he had just been in a civil war and if he had sided with Mussolini and Hitler he wouldn't have lasted until the 70s. The Allies might not have killed him but the Basques or Catalans would have probably done so. How many Bantu did we kill though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticsmarra Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 He told their no 24 in the first half you've got 5 minutes to improve or your off. Within that time they had scored and he was involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfatjoe1 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Franco was not a facist. He was a military dictator, a royalist, supporter of the old order (landed elite) and the Catholic right. He had a few facists in his government and then quickly ditched them after the war,becoming a staunch friend of NATO in the Cold War. All facism is based on a racial code, is nationalist and militaristic and is supposed to be all-encompassing. It is based on the leadership principle and, although it was originally intended to have socialist elements (land reform, ownership of key industries etc) it really was a middle-class cop-out which favoured business, industry and the old landed elites, crushing any rival movements (especially the left/unions). Germany took the racial elements and twisted the anti-semitism to a new level. Italain facism was not as anti-semetic until the two bleeders became friends, but it was still based on race.
