Whereas Monks teams continue to show no fight and collapse at the season end. Cook would fill Monk in easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really don't know the answer to our problems but a manager who signs injured players probably isn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 PAUL COOK. I backed him all the way back in 2015. Since then he has won three promotions, more than Monk ever has. And last season he performed absolutely unbelievably fighting against the tide to keep Wigan promoted despite a looming 12 point deduction - WHICH WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF HIS HANDS. He showed more fight and charisma than Monk has in his little finger. PAUL COOK IS THE MAN. A proper football club would sack Monk and employ the sexy scouser this instant. PS. I’m never wrong on managerial appointments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doom mongering on a whole new level. Utter rubbish. I dunno. I kind of agree with the OP sports writer who calls it as he see's it. If we go down on points because we missed out on one or two points then it could well be George Hirst that kills us off I see where that (excellent) sports writer is coming from there to be fair to him (or her) 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 1 minute ago, @owlstalk said: Why - could (recently relegated) Paul Cook have recommended a manager for us who was capable of beating the drop? Wigan out performed us last season. Wigan had 15 wins and 14 draws but went down because of their points deduction being applied last season, due to them being outside of the bottom three. We finished the season with 15 wins and 11 draws, without their points deduction we'd have finished below them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One De Bilde Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 1 minute ago, @owlstalk said: Paul Cook - got Wigan Athletic relegated to Division One No he didn't, the sale of the club got them relegated. The EFL failed in their duty and the fit and proper owners test (or whatever it is called now) was proved not fit for purpose. The club was put into administration a day after purchase, there was also a huge bet laid in Malaysia for them to go down, coincidentally where the takeover consortium were based. It is an absolute disgrace they got relegated and the EFL should hang their heads in shame. As it was Cook almost steered them clear regardless of the points deduction. He is a far, far better option than Monk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
