RESULT: Preston North End 4 Swindon Town 1

 

Town scorers: De Vita 58

Preston scorers: Sodje 5, Wroe 10, Beavon 43, Welsh 68

 

Paolo Di Canio blasted Swindon keeper Wes Foderingham (to put it mildly) after watching his team lose their first game of the season.

 

Foderingham was substituted after 20 minutes with Town 2-0 down.

 

"Out there he behaved as the worst professional, arrogant, ignorant athlete I have ever seen. And if he doesn't come out and apologise to the fans, to the professionals in general, he is out from my team,"  Di Canio is quoted.

 

The Robins were three behind by half-time, with the only consolation being a De Vita effort just before the hour. A goal that was quickly cancelled out by Preston's fourth on 68 minutes.

 

Di Canio's comments come just days after the manager publicly criticised captain Paul Caddis, who was then left out of the side before signing on-loan at Birmingham last week.
