Paolo Di Canio has ruled himself out of the West Ham job. A shame, as the prospect of him working for Sullivan and Gold would have been, erm, intriguing.
You wonder how Paolo might have reacted to critical programme notes from the Club Landlord. You suspect there might be some proper "gross misconduct". Suffice to say that in his autobiography PDC has a marvellous argument with Fabio Capello, in which Capello rants "Get the f**k out my sight. Get back to the f**king hotel!" and Paolo retorts "You're not going to tell me what to do… I'm not going to hang around here and look at your ugly penis face any longer!"
You sense he might not be quite the applicant the Club Landlords are looking for…

i think lots of people will look at the way gentleman Gianfranco has been treated and rule themselves out. Please not Allardyce -- this is West Ham, not Thuggery United -- although with these owners perhaps it might be.
You can't think of a worse fit than West Ham and Sam Allardyce apart from maybe Newcastle and Allardyce.
You can't argue with his record at Bolton and Blackburn, but there would be open rebellion from the fans and he Club Landlords would be crazy to appoint him. At least Grant had Portsmouth playing some decent football...
Quote of the day in The Independent comes from South Africa's fitness coach, Francisco Gonzalez: "He is overweight. What's the point in having a player who isn't in good physical condition and is therefore useless to the coach." Yes, Benni McCarthy, who is on our books for another two seasons. Given his contribution of no goals at all as we almost got relegated, another triumph for the Club landlords.
