Bark1062 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 21 minutes ago, striker said: It's not beyond the realms of possibility that Chansiri's advisor sounded out Cook, explained the role, remit and a contract to the end of the season. That's probably as far as it went if Cook looking for a longer contract or assurances over footballing matters, unless Chansiri indicated to his advisor that conditions were to change. I don't think Cook has been unprofessional, in fact complimentary when asked questions about us. I don't see quotes from him in any of the stories put out by the Athletic and picked up by others in terms of an offer. I think Chansiri is out of order, can have an issue with the media who reported, but not a job applicant. Think Chansiri is feeling the heat to be lashing out publicly like he is. Where are his “friends” in his hour of need. Cook has probably hit a nerve with his remark about being a employee not a manager, obviously not prepared to be a puppet.or another fall guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I can't wait for that when we are using 8G network and coming out of the 35th national lockdown while Boris tells us not to worry, the R rate shall soon be below 1 and we can start to look forward to being able to watch the Owls from inside the stadium again.

OwlsAustralia Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I was happy to defend DC early days as I thought he had genuine love for the club - had money to spend and he wanted success as much as the supporters. Since he moved Carlos on it's just been a catalogue of stuff ups. No one has any idea of what path he is walking or what his long term plan is? he wouldn't know himself. While I think we all admit our current playing squad is not particularly good and devoid of class it still has enough quality to finish about relegation. But the constant changing of managers - change of tactics - lack of players bought in - no strikers and all the mis messaging from the DC will will result in certain relegation. Relegation is a disaster but if we can someone how sort out off field issues like DC which won't be easy and get rid of players who are on silly money and pass their use by dates and start a fresh with new manager and players who are young and hungry we might come back stronger but that right nows a pipe dream. First we need to get DC out because every day he says the club falls further into the mire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wor’Jackie Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Would anyone be surprised if Chansiri made up the narrative of “I offered him a (short term) contract and he turned it down. End of story, forget about him, let me choose someone now” to try and show he at least ‘tried’ to keep the fans happy? I’ve no proof of that before anyone says anything, but Chansiri seems to be intentionally alienating the supporters from the club as an property. He really doesn’t care about the fans (customers) at all. He doesn’t understand the mindset of the asset he’s bought and the community and feeling around it. It’s a child’s view of what football is, being “Football’s all about money, Champions League, Tiki-Taka and inane tekkers YouTube twaddle” perhaps I'm also angry about the direction Football has taken, but I’m certainly convinced that our club is gone and I’m personally in the process of detachment from the current club and it’s state. I’ll continue to support ‘the team’ if that makes any sense, but no more than that until the ownership has changed or until we have a hard reset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
