West Ham legend Di Canio commits to Swindon

West Ham United legend Paolo di Canio insists he's committed to Swindon town.

Di Canio has confirmed he is staying at Swindon after showdown talks with new chairman Sir William Patey.

The Italian was considering his position after Jeremy Wray - the man behind Di Canio's appointment - was replaced by Patey on the orders of majority shareholder Andrew Black.

He told BBC Wiltshire: "The words that he said to me are more than positive."

He continued: "After we spent an hour together, even if I was angry from the game [against Scunthorpe], I was happy thinking about what he said to me about the future and about me.

"I can't wait. We have to think that from now we can work for the future."
