LATICS fans took to social media following confirmation that Keith Curle had signed a two-year deal as head coach at Boundary Park.
Here's what they had to say:
@ChrisJStott19
Positive news and on a 2 year deal, please give him the "autonomy" and support and learn from the past. Now please sort the north stand and salvage what you can with the disgruntled fans, communication is key but action speaks louder than words #oafc
@DavidELSE13
Good luck Keith you have my backing but as for the other two Just sell the club please
@Chrisjh2910
Great news! Now, trust him and let him get on with the job he's paid to do! Support him, when he asks for it!! No questions asked!!!
@guyfoxy
I doubt anything will change unless he can bring his own players and get rid of all the deadwood. And if he could get some promising youngsters from his contacts at City who knows
@GcOafc
Don't wanna get to carried away but i have a good feeling about this manager and season ahead
@LaticsPaul
Good move... IF he can pick his signings and he’s given a chance to do HIS thing then we will have a better season #oafc
@bardsleybutcher
Good news but please let him sign his own players and let him pick the team/tactics and then maybe we're onto a winner.
@itsafarce
A solid appointment - good luck KC!
@karlBardsley
Good luck Keith get us out of this division please
@OAFCabroad
Be very interesting to see if he will be allowed to bring in some of his own players or if it will be the same old same old as the last few seasons
