Retro Di Canio madness (Video)

In a week where Paulo Di Canio reminded us just how absolutely off his rocker he is, now would be a good time to delve into the vaults for some examples.

Yeah we could go into various arguments with just about anyone from his time at West Ham, or the infamous Paul Alcock incident or even the stopping play against Everton clip (cos good sportsmanship is mental in this day and age) but I’ve chosen this one.

Witness Di Canio, plying his trade at Celtic, do what can be described as leg-breaker on Rangers’ Ian Ferguson before the argument is solved with each offering the other one outside and Di Canio performing a gesture which probably doesn’t mean “I’ll break my Dairy Milk in half so we can share it”.

At the final whistle, Di Canio walks away down the tunnel after starting a near riot in a similar way to an action hero walking away from an explosion.

Truly mad.
