I know he’s a scouser, but he needs to declare he has some family association before signing to ensure he lasts longer than a couple of months. Maybe his Mum is a Wednesday fan?

As we’ve seen with Jos/Westwood/Hutchinson and Monk/Westwood/Hutchinson, clashes seem to end in exile. Windass’ comments about staff at Wigan were pretty damning. Can we risk it?

I don’t disagree. But that’s not the culture of SWFC or the fan base. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that right? Simple yes or no answers will do Is he a long ball merchant? I didn’t know that, then it’s a big NO from me.

Bluesteel Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 1 hour ago, Quist said: It hurts me to say it but we have become a bit of an underdog these last few years. Think he has good knowledge and like players his club sign. If you look at Wigan where he and club were shafted by owner just look at talent he assembled. I wouldn’t mind seeing how he does. He’s got as much chance as a random coach from abroad has of doing something. We are in a true underdog position with the points deduction and FFP issues but that’s not the point I’m making. Managers like wilder, Warnock, evans and perhaps cook use sound bytes in the media with fans and also players about how no one expects them to be competitive and they shouldn’t be on a level with the big clubs and big spenders etc and that then takes pressure off and coaxes performances. We could possibly use that for this season but generally, as a club, we wouldn’t buy that as it doesn’t fit. We do seem to spend and despite our issues Sheffield Wednesday doesn’t identify itself as subservient to other clubs at this level even if we are. Having said that, there was expectation and a different culture at Pompey so that’s encouraging 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 For example if Wilder went to Everton and gave the shtick about not being able to match Man U or Liverpool for some reason they’d hate it. But that’s his way of operating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno why you are struggling with this. Ah, so you're just going with anti-scouse bigotry, then? It didn't disqualify our previous scouse managers, so I'm not sure why it would disqualify Cook.
