Another interview that gives me confidence that the club has made the right decision to get Corberán.

I’m looking forward to seeing what improvement he can get out of people, particularly Diakhaby and Mbenza. I mean, the bar is so low with those two there is plenty of room for improvement - it’s just whether he can turn them into the Premier League standard footballers that we hoped we’d bought. Fingers crossed!

If one thing that the passage of time supporting Town has taught me, take no notice of the talk, what happens on the pitch is where the answer lies, talk is cheap as they say. Let's be honest, we've heard it all before from every incoming Town manager.

Let's be honest, we've heard it all before from every incoming Town manager. You’re right of course, but, at long last the word from Devlin, Bromby and Corberán is consistent, sounds exciting, and I’ve liked what I’ve heard from all three of them. I think it’s been a good few days for the club.

Quite a lot of sound bites and seemingly current buzz words - "vision", "project","no limits" - and quite a lot of implied promises about future performance.
The key, as ever, is not about words and slogans but, particularly in our case, about recruitment. Nothing has been mentioned by anybody about what finances are/aren't available and we could do with a statement, ideally from our Chairman, about the next steps - is Carlos supposed to be a miracle worker and bring on the young kids dramatically ? is he supposed to change those players - we all know them - who've been taking literally millions out of the club without giving anything back for 2 years - change them into motivated proud professionals ? if we sell the Grants and O'Briens (we've nobody else have we) will that money be used to replace them or keep going to Mr Hoyle ?
I must admit I was disappointed with the way the Cowleys were treated but since their departure what I've heard from the club does give me a bit more confidence.
Whether this is genuinely an exciting new vision or a massive (possibly necessary, I don't know) PR exercise to hide the fact we're going to do everything on the cheap with youngsters only the next few weeks will tell. Leigh Bromby and the recruitment team are going to have to earn their money. I've no idea who brought the Mbenzas, Pritchards, Diakhabys in but hopefully they are not involved in any way.

Usual speak from employees of the club. Devlin. Bromby etc. Town have a DNA and all that. Seen and heard a lot of this modern football talk. My take on this is good luck to Carlos. As a Town fan, I want him to succeed

I’m looking forward to seeing what improvement he can get out of people, particularly Diakhaby and Mbenza. I mean, the bar is so low with those two there is plenty of room for improvement - it’s just whether he can turn them into the Premier League standard footballers that we hoped we’d bought. Fingers crossed! I don’t wanna see those two useless, sulky feckers in the building ever again and if the club has any sense they’ll make sure it doesn’t happen. The last thing the new coach needs is £21M worth of sulky league two wingers bringing down the mood whilst earning three times more than proper players and characters like toffalo for example. Hopefully get them a loan move worst case scenario and subsidise the wage, galling but better than having them back. This time next year they’ll be history.

If these two are anywhere near the squad then we are fucked and it’ll show we haven’t learned a single thing.

Not sure if it's due to the strong yorkshire accent but he just sounds a bit thick

My optimism has certainly been raised in these past few days with the sounds coming out of the club. Going to be an interesting summer and I'm looking forward to seeing where we go.
In fact, the only thing I have a niggling concern about now is why Bromby has the face of a 35 year old but the haircut of an ageing lesbian?

All he is saying is we now have a head coach who wants to work with the system the club wants to use. This would seem to be something the Cowleys didn't as they insisted on doing things their own way. I hope we work better when everyone is pulling in the same direction. I also hope that Carlos wants to produce the same type of football we fans want to see. It feels like it has been a long wait. The proof of the pudding, as many have said, will be in the eating.

Just need to hear from big Phil now. He can’t do right for doing wrong though can he? If he says something positive, he’s a used car salesman, if he’s delivers a realistic message he’s potless? And let’s not hear any positivity from the club, it’s all been heard before, footballing speak etc etc....HTFC ‘the happy, but not always and mostly miserable club’

Just need to hear from big Phil now. To be fair I don't, let him get on with things in the back ground and let his employees take the media side. I think for everyone sake phill staying out the limelight is best for everyone.

We’re going to need some new players.

I wonder what the success rate (I’ll define success as not being in a relegation dogfight) is for foreign coaches taking their first managerial job in the cut-throat world of Championship football with a club operating on a near-shoestring budget? May I suggest that the answer is close to zero.
