Leeds United boss David Hockaday has insisted that being the head coach of such a prestigious team has been a dream for him.
The 56-year-old was appointed the manager at Elland Road during the summer and have made a comfortable start to his career at the helm, with his team winning three, drawing one and losing one of their last five pre-season friendlies.
And now with Dundee United scheduled to visit Elland Road next for Hockaday's first match in charge at home, the man concerned reveals that the match is going to be a special occasion for him.
“For me to be the head coach at Leeds United and to lead a team out at Elland Road, you can only dream about that", Hockaday told his club's official site.
