NEWS: REVEALED - Player Power Led To Paolo Di Canio's Sack

No one is happy when he or she loses a job and certainly Italian Manager Paolo Di Canio(PDC) certainly falls into that category. Its no longer news that the former Swindon Town Manager lost his job less than six Months into it and after three wins from thirteen matches but what is shocking is Player power led to the demise of the fiery and at times clownish character. 

His high-profile clash with his Players has been well-documented long before he was booted out with Captain John O'shea, former Captain Lee Catermole as well as former ManUtd defender Phil Bardsley falling out with the ex-West ham and CharltonGoalpoacher. Though the 45-yr old's cause was not helped by a run of One draw andfour losses in the first five games at the start of the season his distraught players met with Sunderland Owner Ellis Short to influence his sack amidst their claims he had lost the dressing room. For now a Caretaker Manager in the name of Kevin Ball has been put in charge until a permanent Manager is announced. Chelsea's Champions league winner Roberto di Matteo, Steve McClaren, Gus Poyet, former Manager Peter Reid and Gianfranco Zola are all in the running to suceed Paolo Di Canio but at least its obvious he paid the price to Player Power after he ruled the Players with Fear factor.
