KDZ I think you need to look at the last few months' draws & losses not on results but performances. If you've watched the whole games you'd see lots & lots of positives. I must admit I wasn't worried but thought we might just scrap through. Individual mistakes imo was the problem. Cook has proved to be the right manager for Wigan - he has the players' respect. We need to keep him and with that means stability for the club.IEC have a decision to make now on Cook - i suspect the next 2 performances will play into that.
Human nature means often the freshest thing in peoples minds disproportionately tilts opinion over what came before - so if we go back to sleep and or finishing on a high could tip the scales in either direction. If IEC haven't already made up their mind.
We've only won 6 games in 35, most of that run the performances and approach have been painful as relieved and pleased we are at the last week it doesn't make that vanish from consideration. Thanks to the 2 and a win Easter Cook has now has now just edged ahead of the universally panned Joyce in win ratio - throw into the mix finishing on 2 bad performances and results in the final 2 and we drop to 4th bottom i think it's very justifiable pulling the trigger. But on the flip side if he puts on another 2 good performances and results and we smash the away hoodoo with back to back away wins, and finish the season with 4 wins as high as 16th in the table 14 points clear of relegation then it completely transforms perception.
I think it could all still to play for for Cook. If i was him I'd be going all out in the final two to prove it's a real turn around and not just 1 good week. It's a important decision with big implications for IEC they will most likely want to take into account what happens in the following 2 rather than make a decision now on emotion.
