I agree re:a lot of people are going to be disappointed the name

but it is a new beginning and a chance to go again as a crowd and build some atmosphere for the team. The unknown should be a little bit exciting, the chance to get the new season expectation going again.

Unfortunately unless the new man hits the ground at full speed people are going to moan at the 1st sign of disappointment
