Not sure how much is just bluster and bullsh1t but he doesn't half talk a good fight. His enthusiasm seems boundless - IF (and I know if is a big IF) he can 'walk the walk like he talks the talk' we are in for fun and games and ultimately (hopefully quite soon) good times This bit especially

I'm firmly in the Give them the support until they f*ck up camp. At least we have something different now eh? When was the last time we were linked with so many players? Or an owner was willing to spend some money acquiring players? Ross has been sold, yes, but we got an unreal price for him

I think if this had happened 10 years ago, there would be riots down at the ground and Cellino would have had his arse kicked back to Italy but Ridsdale, Krasner , bates , Haigh and co make the Hock and Cellino seem quite appealing in a self mocking sort of way. The joking will of course

I think Cellino said in his interview that the money from the Ross sale was going to buy Elland Road. But he also said that he has 15 million to buy new players. As for Hockaday, his CV is not impressive. But given the Cellino track record of sacking coaches, he wont last long anyhow. Torrey

McCormack put in a transfer request. None of us wanted him to go but he got more than double what he is worth. When has Cellini fleeced the fans? He was very popular with Calgary fans which is pretty unique in that country. We all have reservations about Hockaday but he does have PL experience

Cellino ran a small club with average gates of 5k for 22 years and 17 of them were in Seria A. Fact that is a success. McCormack looked for any excuse to jump ship and if he hadn't I would still have ripped Fulham hands off for £11m. You are focusing on Hockaday's last job so why am I the

Average gates of 5k because he ran the stadium into the ground and fell out with the council. He had them playing as far from Cagliari as it's possible to be and still be in italy. The equivalent of us playing our home games in launceston. I'm focussing on the fact that he's a loser who no one

There is only one man running this club and that's Cellino! Hockaday is there to train the players to order. Crucial to the success is whether hock has credibility or whether that fake twitter account is true or not Sent from my iPhone On 18 Jul 2014, at 18:06, Ian Murray

Yours is the curate's question, sort of good in parts. The bit that makes me wonder is how did Hockaday be in a position to get the job in the first place? Did he write in on spec? Was he head-hunted? Is he somebody's mate? Results will tell us if he just got on the end of the wrong queue when
