Apparently yes, if you're Swindon Town F.C. in England's League Two. Sure, I don't have (or desire) the ability to hire and fire people, and I have zero experience in the operations of a professional football club. These facts alone would lead many to rubbish my opinion on Swindon Town's decision to hire Paolo Di Canio as their next manager. If that's you, you're always free to stop reading here and I bid thee addio!
Now, I've disclosed previously that I'm a supporter of West Ham United - a club where to this day Di Canio receives a hero's welcome. Speaking strictly of footballing skills, many fans of the Claret and Blue would argue that the Hammers haven't had a player with such ability in and around the box since Di Canio's departure. Shoot, I still consider his wonder-volley against Wimbledon in March of 2000 as the best goal I've ever seen. Fantastico!
Taking a look at the entire package though, this parcel has arrived in Wiltshire marked 'EXTREME LIABILITY'. Maybe this decision makes sense given Swindon Town's consistent financial woes, or considering they've cycled through no less than 10 managers (including caretakers) since 2005 - what's another punt on a retired footballer with no managerial experience? But let's not also forget that this crate comes stamped with the big black, ugly letters of 'FASCIST'!
