Kaizer bosses ended a week of speculation Thursday afternoon when they announced the former mentor of Wits, Gavin hunt as your new head coach.
Hunt replaces Ernst Middendorp, who was fired by the club last Wednesday after narrowly missing the league title to Mamelodi Sundowns.
The bosses believe that Hunt, who has proven success often in local football, is the right man to end the club’s trophy drought dating back to the 2014/2015 season.
“We believe that with Hunt we have brought in a person with the right experience and energy to do just that,” Chiefs supreme Kaizer Motaung said in a statement announcing the signing.
Naturally, after the announcement, Twitter picked up speed as Chiefs fans (and others) took to social media to make their thoughts known.
These are some of the best tweets:

Gavin Hunt to Kaizer Chiefs is a big deal …
Gav has done a great job at various clubs so I am fascinated to see how he fares with one of South Africa’s giants.
His pedigree is unquestionable and Naturena is in desperate need of a restructuring. He will bring that to you. pic.twitter.com/mOWVETAhhM

Now that Gavin Hunt to Kaizer Chiefs is a done deal, they should scrap their lackluster transfer policy. Gavin Hunt should be the one buying players, not Bobby. pic.twitter.com/YfqgxiUlTX

The only way Gavin Hunt can be successful at Chiefs is when he is given full control of the team, without interference from Kasi’s so-called soccer specialists, who have never won anything as coaches.

So now that Gavin Hunt has signed with Kaizer Chiefs, does that mean it’s the end of Pitso Mosimane’s dominance? But how when Gavin Hunt has been there the entire time during Pitso’s reign? pic.twitter.com/Xbrlrim8yI

Kaizer Chiefs fans are happy about the appointment of Gavin Hunt from Wits, but that won’t automatically help the club win trophies. The coach does not play the field, so problems will continue to occur as long as Willard Katsande and Parker remain. ????? ?????? ?? pic.twitter.com/HkurhmoQX0

I’m happy that Gavin Hunt has joined our team, but I’m not going to put all my heart into next season with Kaizer Chiefs.
I still haven’t gotten over my disappointment this season. ????
