I’m excited, just hope he actually gets backed financially and can build his own squad. 

Hope not actually, as I hope he is here too and genuinely wants to, develop the team around our exciting crop of youngsters, supplementing them in a very limited way with new signings.

Stupidly slow as ever. Probably an early red flag for him.

 

Good luck Marti. Don't make me call you Russell Marti at any point in this tenure and you have probably done well.

[PhillippaT]

Typical - everything always happens while I'm out shopping    About bloody time, though!

The swamp needs draining and we’ll need some hungry players to fill the void. If the youth are good enough they’ll have a place but we’re almost certainly going to need some strikers at the very least

If stories are to be believed and he’s paid a lot of his own compo, I’d suggest that this is a good indication that he wants to be here..

His style of football marries to our squad perfectly for this level. I’m really positive about this appointment.
 

Might not be as smooth for Marti as it was Maresca when he had KDH and Vardy, but can expect similarities in the performances/style if the players perform to the best of their abilities. 

[Hitesh]

Any news on if he's bringing a team in?

[Verumex]

Did anyone pick up on them not proofreading the headline in the announcement?

They've not had time, such a quick turn around and all that

[MPH]

Should we read into the fact they have announced him as first team manager and not just head coach?

Having consulted with our Spanish waiter during a meal here in Tenerife, I have it on best authority that it's pronounced Sif Who N Tes. You're welcome 😁

Now confused, heard it was Sif-wen-tes (3 syllables).

Ill informed

Opened the door and you walked right on through, good for you. Missed the dash between the words though, so you lose a couple of points for missing out basic punctuation.

Or dyche

Think he will be a perfect fit for where we are at and will be able to take us forward, seems like he want's to be here as well which is a plus.

Loved a bookface comment Iv’e just seen by a season ticket holder and I quote “ what an appalling appointment I’m considering chucking in my season  ticket I’ve never heard of him “
