same as Garry monk, who incidentally is the most recent manager to do what Paul cook didn’t do - keep a team up with a points deduction .

 

 

I'm confused,  not sure what your point is?

‘Realistically’

McMigo clearly missed out on Maths lessons at school.

 

Well done Devonstrix for exposing McMigo's delusions:

 

"It was a 12 point deduction and it was only imposed about four weeks before the end of the season as far as I recall, so McMigo's criticism of Cook is ridiculous. Between them, Pulis and Monk have had far longer to overhaul our six points."

Who would you realistically like to take over? 

 

As long as it's someone who play nice football as the club implodes to oblivion ....that's the main thing...

We have a points deduction 

 

we need to stay up 

 

why hire a manager who literally failed to do the exact thing we need to do, when last month we sacked a manager who literally succeeded in the exact thing we needed to do.

Not even gonna think about it because no matter who you came up with it won't be that person

 

 

Chansiri will pull some old gimmer out of retirement in South Korea or summat

Mr Mayagi it is then “it is ok to lose to an opponent “  will fit in well.

I am begiining to worry about McMigo's sanity

 

What did he not understand in Devonstrix's response:

My advocacy of Cook was based on more than clubs having a points deduction, although still do not understand your reasoning. What do you suggest Cook could have done to affect the points deduction at Wigan considering the point in the season it was imposed?

 

Who do you recommend then who has kept a team up following a points deduction, if that's your crucial recruitment criteria?

So you think Duncan Ferguson would leave a cushty job at a club who are second in the PL and who he supports to come and manage us? 
 

I’ll have one of whatever you’ve got. 

I'd have him as a player.

Cook has always played good attacking football.

I am a simple man yes.

 

I see Paul cook was the manager of Wigan for the whole season. They got relegated. They got a points deduction. I feel for Paul cook I really do. I would love to do Karaoke with Paul cook, a medley of scouse specials like Cast and Sonia.  I like Paul cook. But the one thing Paul cook appears to be bad at is keeping teams with a points deduction in this league.

 

look, we go down to league 1 , bring Paul cook in .  He is good at promotions at northern teams . I can see that .

 

but let’s not pick him to do that one thing we need, when it’s that One thing he appears to be terrible at.

Sadly relegation football as well

No he didn't. His Wigan team acquired enough points to stay up, it was the administrative failings that got the club relegated. In your mind, Klopp would be a poor choice had Liverpool been given a 60 point penalty last season.

That’s not true. Promoted at three separate clubs and led Wigan to a mid table finish before a points deduction came in which he was unaware off. 

[Owls Loyal]

Very politely Devonstrix and Striker are trying to help McMigo understand.

 

Perhaps when you are in a hole McMigo you should stop digging.

Would you be ok if Paul cook took over and we were relegated by 3 points ?

[Owls Loyal]

McMigo does say that Paul Cook is good at getting northern teams promoted.

 

But it is also important to remember that he also got Portsmouth promoted.

Completely different scenario and you know it. He would have taken the job and failed to get the requisite number of points, knowing in advance about the deduction. At Wigan, he did a decent job and then, due to the financial and administrative failure of the new owner, had twelve points taken off. That’s bad luck on Cook's part, not failure.

I'd like Stuart Gray to be approached, purely to give him the opportunity to tell Chancer-i to go and f*** himself.

[S40owl]

Another season at Chesterfield and a bit more backing money wise I think he'd have got them to the Championship .
