Breaking bad: Swindon forced to change locks as Di Canio breaks into old office at midnight

If further proof were needed as to why now is not the right time for Paolo Di Canio to be appointed as West Ham manager, this is it. Charles Reynolds reports for the Independent this morning that ex Swindon boss Di Canio made a successful bid last night to break into his old office at the County Ground. Accompanied by a member of his backroom staff; the Italian, who quit as Swindon manager on Monday; was allegedly caught on CCTV at the club letting himself into his old office with keys from his time in Wiltshire at approximately 11.50pm last night and proceeded to "remove photographs from his successful spell as boss at the club from the walls." Reynolds states that Town have now "changed the codes on the stadium entrance and replaced the locks to his (old) office," and that whilst the club had been hopeful of persuading Di Canio to return as manager, "this incident looks to have scuppered" that idea. Extraordinary. I should have changed the lock, I should have changed the key- if I'd know, Paolo, for just one second that you'd be back to bother me!
