Fuccillo confident Hatters made the right appointment
Speaking when the former Torquay and Bristol Rovers boss was unveiled to the media last Sunday morning, Fuccillo said: “I think the way Paul spoke, the way he wanted to do things, how vibrant he is and the enthusiasm he can bring to the club with the way he wants to portray it, was a bit factor.
“We sat there listening to him for a good 10-15 minutes and he had us in his hands. When you look at the candidates we did speak to, he came out on top.

Fuccillo has only been recently brought into the club himself and when asked how his role would work alongside Buckle, he added: “I’m there to assist him, not there to tell him what to do, how to do it.
“He’s his own man, he’s the one who will pick the team. He might ask for my opinion, I’ll give him my opinion.
“We’re there to help from recruitment right through to the playing staff. Everything we do at this club has to be in a forward manner and having the combination between the three of us.

“Not being disrespectful to previous people, but you could say the team is unbalanced or not got this, not got that.
“Everyone has an opinion on players, but he’s (Buckle) got to find out very quickly, who he wants to be the starting 11 as games are coming thick and fast.
“One thing we can’t have is the way we performed against Braintree.
