Can I just clarify something - we are lucky to have Paul Cook, not the other way around.
I know you’re not getting on his back and I appreciate that if we lose the next 5 games you’ll have concerns. But the very fact that the name linked with potentially replacing Paul Cook is David Unsworth should tell you everything you need to know about where we’re at as a club. We are SO lucky to have Cooky and, if we lose him or are stupid enough to one day get rid of him, then how many awful managers are we going to go through this time before we find the next good one?
I was at Middlesbrough last weekend and it was awful. But you need to look at the actual reasons for why. At the moment Cook is the glue holding us together while the contract situations, injuries and potential lack of funds are causing us big issues.
It’s not always the managers fault is what I’m trying to say. In fact I believe it’s solely down to the manager that we’re not battling with Bolton at the bottom.
