Odds collapsing on Cook now odds on. Good appointment IMO wanted him when Monk was sacked Cook is 2/1 on. When he gets to 10/1 on, I'd agree a deal has been done. The fact Joey Barton is still second favourite (who has zero chance) tells me it is not a done deal yet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he in a car supplied by Montys Toyota perchance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a google and it doesn’t say much beyond that they didn’t see eye to eye and that he had to train with the kids towards the end at Wigan. Sounds a bit like Monk getting a new job and rocking up to find Westwood in goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea Baggins Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 In regards to this Windass/Cook feud. We all know it exists, but obviously not the finer details. I would like to imagine they could both sit down like men and talk it out, come to some agreement and carry on as professionals. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was Cowley and Rowett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I think he would be a decent appointment. Not an exciting one but a stable one. Done decent jobs wherever he has been. You would guess something has happened for his odds to drop or perhaps it’s just people on here putting a few £ on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deano Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Always liked Paul Cook, no issues if its him. As for those saying they hope it's a foreign manager, surely that depends who the foreign manager is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogbob Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I'd be happy with it. Just think he fits us right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose with Chansiri in charge we can’t exactly dream of promotion anytime soon anyway, so Cook will do for me. Who is the exciting appointment you were hoping for? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Sensible choice, if true and appointed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cook only played attacking football at the clubs he was expecting to get promotion at. I dont know whether this is true or not but his Wigan side did score 57 goals last season which put them roughly mid table in terms of scoring. So perhaps not attacking football as such but not completely defensively minded either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Cook has had an interview or something, but 1/2 odds alone don't imply a done deal to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmigo Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I just don't see this happening. I am sure Cook would love the job , but I do think DC will look to the overseas market having been burned by Bruce and Pulis, and falling out with Monk at the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Barton is only there because he is available, but no indication that club are remotely interested. Easy money for bookies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are correct here, pretty sure DC would see a foreign coach as easier to deal with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
