Guest Grandad Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Please - go for an experienced manager with a track record of success in this Division. Not someone whos only ever won promotion twice - in divisions below this one. Lets not waste any more time hoping we can get someone who will give it a good go - lets get someone like we did with Bruce. Someone we can believe in - rather than put out hope in.

mcmigo Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Paul Cook. The most recent example anywhere in world football to relegate a team from this league who got a points deduction. Replacing Garry Monk, the most recent example anywhere in world football to keep a team in this league with a points deduction. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue and white Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Paul Cook would be very underwhelming. Now is not the time to be gambling on unproven managers at this level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson colluded in the bad taste in the mouth affair of the the Hurst Saga. Dont trust him or Hurst senior regardless of the fact they were superb players for the OPwls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what we are saying is, he hasn't got to be all that big a name for us to punch above our weight at the present time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got three promotions. With 2 clubs that were in a massive mess at the time and then solidified Wigan. I don't want him either anymore as he and windass don't get on and he is the only striker we have who actually looks like scoring. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StudentOwl Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 What's the point in this thread? Chansiri is hardly gonna be sipping his morning coffee, scrolling through Owlstalk and spotting this thread and going "Ah, the Oracle Grandad has spoken". *phones up Cook*. "Hi Paul... yes I know you're on the Snake Pass, but listen, this bloke called Grandad has asked nicely... I'm afraid you should turn around. Yeah, it's just not the job for you. Don't worry, I'll pay for petrol". One of two things are going to happen... either we hire Cook, at which point there's already a small gaggle of dissenting voices on Day 0, or we don't and we get someone else. The former scenario is just a fat load of unneeded negativity in a very negative season so far, the latter scenario renders this thread pointless. So essentially, the only scenario this thread has a reason to exist is to be negative about a manager the very millisecond he walks through the door. Kind of callous really. 24 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone like Bruce is not going to come. Nigel Pearson is only name that is equivalent to Bruce without a job and I very much doubt he would even entertain coming with our points deduction, low budget, dysfunctional running of the club and poor playing squad. Chansiri was right we are not a big club to attract a big name. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdan2003 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I think Cooks alright, might not be the spectacular signing that people want but i think of the list of managers realistically available he'd be near the top of my list. I think he'd get a tune out of this team, which right now is the priority. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
