Tommy Crawshaw Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Cook's Wigan scored in just 1 home game the same number of goals as we have scored in 16. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adelphi1867 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I can just see it now: February 2021, Wednesday in the Bottom 3 and fans calling for Cook to be sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could easily happen, managing Wednesday is a bit of poisoned chalice. Still think Monk should get a bit more time but think Paul Cook is best manager out there we have a realistic chance of getting. I know people say he has never finished above mid table in the Championship but that's he has only managed Wigan at this level. Done his time at Chesterfield, Portsmouth and Wigan and done well at all of those. Someone who deserves a crack at a bigger club further up the food chain. I also thought this of the Cowley brothers and they seem to have found Huddersfield a bit too big for them and not seen them linked with any other jobs at this level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex-Lincoln City manager Danny Cowley has taken up a new role in football in the city — he’s now coaching his daughter’s under 12s football team.

He’s in the Burtenshaw, Lukuhay, Eustace group. Some of the worst managers we’ve ever had and 2 have been on DC’s watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of you calling for Paul Cook to come - tell me the answer to this one.. Has Paul Cook ever finished above 12th in the Championship? It would seem that the position of 12th or above is important to you, so I will use that as the bar and ask the following: Dean Smith pre Brentford Ian Holloway pre Blackpoll Eddie Howe Pre Bournmouth Nigel Person Pre Leicester (I think He was at Hull prior Brian Clough And even That Clown along DD way Were any of the above managers who had finished 12th or above in the 2nd tier before going on to have success? I believe you can have success and a playing style at a lower league club, I also accept that the size off the club, fan base is so massive that it would take someone special to achieve, but lets not dismiss all those that have not got to 12th or above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swfc-dan Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 What are the chances? Does Chansiri even know who he is, though? Let alone the fact he's available and a good manager at this level and realistic appointment. If we were another championship club like Forest etc then it would be nailed on he'd come. But with Chansiri you never have a ******** clue who he's going to pull out of the hat. Could be a Bruce appointment (which I guess would be Cook now) or could be another inept wildcard like Jos.

DobbinTheDonkey Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) There's a chance DC doesn't even know the score from tonight's game. In fact he might not even know we've played. What with restrictions and the time zone difference. Edited October 28, 2020 by DobbinTheDonkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I’m not keen on Cook. Prefer him to Monk, but it would be another sticking plaster job. Don’t ask me who though, but I’d like someone with a footballing philosophy, who can build something sustainable I hate all this, we’re in a relegation battle, we need players who can scrap and fight. Look where’s that’s taking us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronio Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Cook would be a brilliant appointment. Worked his way up from the bottom as a player and manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
