Too Much Optimism??

[Deleted]

So we finally have our new management team, this board has gone crazy with people declaring how succesful we are gonna be.
Based on what?

Lee Clark has achieved great things as a player, and looking at what has been written about him, is keen to become a good manager, but he has little experience to back up his aspirations.

The appointments of Fazackerly and Black look good, perhaps more credible than the appointment of Mr Clark.

Is this really enough for us to all start declaring we're gonna take the league by storm.

I don't think so.

BUT,

we also have what most other football fans in the country dream of - a Chairman who has walked off the terraces, into the boardroom and laid his money, and reputation on the line for the club that HE supports.
Ternent was sacked because he didn't have the right ethos, a sign that Mr Hoyle wants to be in total control of his investment.
Dean has chosen our new manager with both care, and courage, and failure for both the chairman and the new manager is not an option.
And we won't fail because we have what looks like the best combination of board and management team, that I have ever seen while following Huddersfield town, it's as simple as that.

Surely the second part of your post answers the questions posed in the first part?

Just what I was about to post.

I am excited and ethusiastic about his appointment for the following reasons.

We have a manager and coaching team that are in touch with todays game, who will used todays methods to get there ideas across.

Also we have a manager that if he wants to be as succesful as he says he cannot afford to fail!!!

Along with a Owner who is passionate and wants to move in the right direction.

Surely a recipe for success

None of us know that it's going to work. But the optimism is a breath of fresh air, this appointment really seems to have got the fans on side. Well done Deano

Yes I agree Paul!!!

Iv got a very good gut feeling about this appointment (something I havnt had for the last 2 although I have given managers of the club my full backing) It's almost a feeling when Jacko was first appointed..........

Having just come back from the Q & A session billy, i genuinely feel there is substantial room for optimism going forward.
It is a well balanced team who each know their roles, and Mr Hoyle is backing him 100%.
LC knows he cant afford to fail in his first job, and his hunger and ambition shone through like a beacon. He will give each and every player a clean slate and it is up to them to perform on a consistent basis. His passion for developing players is readily apparent and he intends to have a very hands on role from the first team right down to the U8/9s.
What we need now is 3 pts tomorrow and a big crowd fully backing the new man to achieve another 3 next week!!!!!!!!

Its just a shame that his first home game is on the last Saturday before xmas when crowds are traditionally low.

True; but remember - 16'000 people already have tickets for the game!
