Emailed sky bet asked them could i bet on the next leicester manager who were the favourites, and they said they wete setting up a market and nigel adkins and paolo di canio would be there frontrunners, i think both would do a good job

one advantage of e mail is that you cant hear all the laughing in the background as they deal with the query

"Fascism views political violence, war and imperialism as a means to achieve national rejuvenation, spirit and vitality. It asserts that claimed superior nations and races that needliving space should displace claimed weak and inferior nations and races."

Well, that is a very broad definition and I think there is a little more wriggle room when it comes to particular brands of fascism.

And anyway, that description is valid for most Western European countries from the 16th Century up until the end of World War Two.

My point is, and only is, that Italian fascism in the 1920 and 30s wasn't particularly racist and nor is Paulo Di Canio necessarily racist for claiming he is a fascist. He claims to support anti-racist campaigns. Beyond this I am not party to his innermost thoughts and feelings.

Fascists are bad even if they claim not to be racist. As a child I saw what fascist bombs had done to our cities including Leicester so I don't what to see a fascist manager at LCFC.

Well said.

I'm not a fan of combining politics and sport, but a self-proclaimed fascist at the club I've supported since I was a child would be beyond the pale. Considering Wayne Brown was forced out of the club and hauled over the coals for supporting the BNP, rightly so in my opinion, it seems odd that some would be happy to see a man who supports an ideology responsible for the murder of millions in our dugout. Not for me thanks, principles are more important.

Ok, I'm fed up of arguing the toss now and realise that all you anti-fascists were probably right all along.

What bombs in Leicester?

he had a good record in europe, till a heavy pitch in russia fooked him up..

He definitely lacked a Plan B.

Playing his best troops out of position completely ruined his career.

Nigek adkins would be perfect the bloke has worked a miracle down at southampton. Obviously they have a pot of money like us but still 2 seasons 2 promotions and are likely to be staying in the prem this year.

Nigel Pearson is my favorite because it makes no sense to me for us to hit the panic button and change managers at this stage of the season. Should we not get promotion, I can see him being sacked. Adkins would be my favorite to take over.

This sort of post is all well and good but the form hasn't "dipped", it's nosedived.

This isn't mid-table or even relegation form. Given the opposition we've faced, this is bottom-of-the-table form that Bristol City, Barnsley, Posh - whoever - would be completely ashamed of.

All of the principles Pearson employed in getting us into the top 6 and then the top 2 in the first place seem to have been ditched in favour of the sort of percentage football that was successful in his first spell. It's plainly obvious to anybody watching that this is not working and hasn't been working at all since he started to implement it following Wood's arrival.

Pearson's failure to see sense after the Peterborough game was forgivable given the 5 match winning run we'd just had. But we had the same problems of failing to create any chances against Charlton and Huddersfield and still he didn't change things. At that point, automatic promotion was salvageable. Now it isn't because he hasn't learned. What's more, it worries me that I don't think he will learn. We're sliding out of the play-offs, and he's undoing all of his own good work. What is the point in that?

What did he change?

That seems extremely dumb given wood fitted right into the existing system.

You might not be a fan of combining sport with politics but that's exactly what you've done.

And why stop there? Why not extend your principles to the socialists? They've done far more damage than the BNP ever will as the death toll from Blair's trumped up Iraq adventure emphasises.

Okay, it didn't run into millions (in bodies i mean not £'s) so i don't suppose it really counts any more than the lies about the extent of immigration in Blair's time, at least in the eyes of the faithful.

But this is the reality, or as near as dammit.

Fascist DeCanio's legacy: An extended arm salute and a few largely forgotten words.

BNP's Nick Griffin legacy: A few unexpected seats, self-destruction in a television interview and a lot of personal ridicule.

Yes, I'm playing Devil's Advocate. But hypocrisy is never far away in any debate
