anyone seen those shots on SSN of Di Canio having a ruck with one of his players?
Its tacked on the end of the bbc highlights too! Very funny that Di Canio didn't seem to enjoy the game... (Swindon is top of the list of places ill never go back to still)
Apparently the guy missed a couple of chances and Di Canio has now banished him from the Swindon sqaud, there might be some details I've missed.
Ah apparently he submitted a transfer request two days earlier.

Apparently he was having an argument with a fitness coach, then mouthed off to Di Canio, apparently a couple days before the game he asked to leave (he's only been at the club like 2 weeks!).
yeah I just read up on it, sounds like a clash of egos and Leon Clarke probably thinks he's above Swindon.
To be fair to Clarke he is
We had him in the Championship and he showed a bit of class in the season we went down, scored a few goals and got his big move to QPR where he warmed the bench, never understood why we didn't offer him a contract he clearly enjoyed playing for us.
