Earlier today we reported that Billy McKinlay was set to depart from Watford FC to be replaced by Slaviša Jokanović as head coach.
We announced the news on our Twitter feed, @Observer_Owl and Hornets fans reacted to the appointment of a fourth head coach in one of five ways (well, six if you count just clicking "reweet").
1. There was initial suprise:
@Observer_Owl WOW! Watford can never be called boring.
— Chris. (@I_am_Hornet) October 7, 2014
2. Followed by suspicion:
@Observer_Owl obviously true behind the scenes reasons being witheld.

3. Then there were quite a few of these:
@Observer_Owl Who?

@Observer_Owl Who? must say not impressed. we 'lost' a manger who knew English football for a chap we have never heard of. Hope it comes off

@Observer_Owl who, what... So confused by all this. Where is the official club statement? #watfordfc

4. People asked how long he would last:
@Observer_Owl Long- term meaning 'until the end of the month'?
— Paul Mathews (@Watford_Politic) October 7, 2014
@Observer_Owl how long will this one last??!

@Observer_Owl All aboard the watford merry go round! By the time I learn how to say/spell his name he will be history

5. And finally, the eternal optimist:
@Observer_Owl Well if you're going to get a proven Manager, then this guy seems to be a winner. Hopefully that winning touch works at WFC
