A warm welcome to Everton's new manager.
That is... welcome potentially to the most, shall we say, 'interesting' appointment of your career thus far.
Not only is there significant pressure to perform on the pitch for the new boss - who looks set to be Frank Lampard based on a flurry of reports on Friday - but there's a desperation for things off it to improve as well.
Now, realistically, the manager can't do much in this sense other than try and unite supporters behind him as best he possibly can. The real work is down to Farhad Moshiri, that much is clear.
But the incoming boss will no doubt have seen what a tumultuous week it has been at his new club.
Without a deep knowledge of the fanbase, he might not know the full ins and outs of why multiple protests have happened over the course of recent days. The long and short of it is that a growing group of Evertonians have seen enough.

They've seen their club mis-managed for years. The money that came in 2016 did not bring the promised amount of stability and success. In fact, their club seems to be rapidly regressing rather than progressing.
With the team teetering above the relegation places after a horrendous run of form, a group of fans are taking it into their own hands to bring their views to the attention of Moshiri.
The walk-out protest against Arsenal did not have the desired effect, but it was always an ambitious idea to begin with. It's hard to know just how many took part, but you'd need thousands to make a visible difference inside the stadium, realistically.
However, a week ago, the sit-in demonstration seemed much more profound and noticeable.
Again there weren't huge numbers involved, but they made a loud difference inside an unusually eerily quiet Goodison Park following the final whistle against Aston Villa.
Chants of 'sack the board' and 'Kenwright and Co, it's time to go' were the most popular throughout the 90 minutes-or-so that the protest took place - with many involved believing Moshiri needs to change those who work around him if he is to improve the club's fortunes.
*Take part in our Everton survey:
A few days later, banners were hung outside Goodison. A day afterward, there was the graffiti relating to the managerial search on the side of the stadium, which everyone can agree was disgraceful.
But then Wednesday evening brought with it a different kind of protest.
There was an oddly jovial atmosphere among the demonstration, despite the dire situation that the club finds itself in.
The event, which had only been shared on social media earlier that same morning, had managed to amass a good crowd of people. A precise number is impossible to estimate, but there was certainly a few hundred gathered near the Dixie Dean statue on what was a chilly evening.
Up until 7pm, the scheduled start-time for the demonstration, there was little noise other than a sense of murmuring anticipation among the crowd - save for the beeps of some cars as they went past and saw the protest.
But, after the clock passed 7pm, the chants begun to ring out.
In front of the Sky Sports cameras, initially the banners were on full display, before they were moved to the railing on the side of the road to give a group of about 20 people a good picture opportunity from the opposite side.
Someone even brought their own speaker to the event to blast Everton songs, although after a couple of minutes that could be seen flying from the middle of the crowd and slamming into the road, nearly being run over in the process.
But there was a sense of togetherness among the people involved. They were of a like-mind, they wanted to get their point across as loudly and (for the most part) respectfully as possibly.
The low-light was, of course, the vandalism on the side of Goodison Park, which was a completely unacceptable act that was slated by many of those who were there on the night - let alone anyone else watching from home.
As the group took a slow-walking lap around the stadium, their chants were loud and pointed. The banners at the front made for a striking visual.
After around an hour in the cold evening air in L4, the group had dispersed and headed back home, having made their point.
It's not something that every supporter agrees with - hardly any view with regard to a football club ever is, never mind that of Everton.
There are those who believe a new manager could be the answer. Others are waiting for the result of the club's strategic review.
But seeing the twists and turns of the managerial search so far has been the last straw for some. Seeing Kia Joorabchian, an extremely divisive figure to say the least, in the director's box did not paint a good picture.
Vitor Pereira appearing on Sky Sports News in the midst of an interview process for the Everton job was a concerning metaphor for the perceived shambles that is going on behind the scenes.
The Blues increasingly have a rudderless feel to them as they fall further and further down the table - and that is a scary prospect for a lot of fans.
And so, they have taken to the streets and performed their right to protest. Wednesday's demonstration was probably the most effective so far - and you can bet it won't be the last.
The new manager will probably have to deal with that in the first few weeks of his tenure. That's the nature of what being Everton boss is at this moment in time.
Those organising the protests have made clear that this was not about the man in charge of the players, instead it was about the majority shareholder and those who work in tandem with him.
Given the club's position as things stand, it doesn't seem as if a solution to the rife problems is right around the corner.
So welcome to Everton's new manager. This is a club in trouble, but you can go part of the way to turning things around.
