Steve Evans seems to think Paul Cook will take us up 13:19 - Mar 5 with 4420 viewsBlueWorldOrder

[He has gone to a giant and one thing that giant will be is in the Championship under Cooky. I never thought it would happen under where they have been in the last year or so. Paul Cook changes it for Ipswich Town.]

Almost dead cert.

He also doesn't like Lambert, which is partly where that comment comes from.

I think SE is also trying a bit of subliminal psychology, but trying to make our players feel ( subconsciously), that it’ll be easy tomorrow vs Gills. He’s not daft and anything to gain an edge. It’ll be a hard game tomorrow- again, and the one thing I fear is tour lot starting to show signs of tired legs and travel fatigue from recent fixtures.

You are right. That pie eating balloon used to come out with the same sort of garbage when McCarthy was here, regardless of what team he was with.

This. Also trying to lump pressure onto Cook.

He doesn't seem to like Ipswich full stop. He was a sore loser when Mccarthy beat his Leeds side.

Cook has it harder than most new managers as we have not lost for 5 games. If we were to lose the next 3 then he's going to feel bad about that and the pressure will begin to mount again.

He's under no pressure at all for the rest of this season.

Mind games to put the pressure on isn't it?

As for no pressure, I would suggest that failure to make the play-offs from here would be a failure. I am very confident that Cook will take this squad into the play-offs as a minimum.

However, the bigger job is building a squad ready to compete in the Championship. We are a long way from that, having gone backwards a long way from when we went down without a fight.

I was thinking this earlier.

Go up now, and build in the summer for a go in the Championship, or give Cook a full summer to build and next season to storm League 1, and maybe have a 'better go' at the Championship?

We'd all say go up now, but it's an interesting one.

It would be easier to build a team for the Championship in the Championship. We can always loan out younger players and they will play at a higher level, the higher we are as a club. We would be able to attract different players in the Championship too.

It is a no-brainer for me that we target promotion this season. However, the over-riding goal must be longer term. Cook could get this squad to stay up in the Championship I am sure. He would have the summer to make changes and January to tweak further. I would rather he was building the squad while in the Championship. Either way, there is going to be some clear out in the summer isn't there? There is no way any manager can keep our current squad all happy.

Then there is something fundamentally wrong with this club. So far he's picked up a point over two games we've not looked great in. We've also conceded 4 goals in those two games. We have to have higher standards or we can forget about this club being promoted again. I see that Peterborough's Chairman is also saying Cook will take us up but if there is no pressure then we will never do it. Too much of an easy ride at Ipswich.

What do you expect any manager to do with a team that has struggled to score goals all season with barely 1.5 days worth of training available per week.

At best all Cook is able to do is speak to players and pick a lineup.. pretty much anyone on this forum could do that for the rest of the season.
There is no magic formula for management.

Tuesday for example was a great point against a solid top 2 league 1 side. Yet there was a mass disappointment that we didnt outplay them. On what basis do people have these thoughts.

It's the same lackluster squad Cook has inherited with no training time. What do you actually expect a manager to do to suddenly turn things around and make the side a formidable promotion challenging team.

And before you bring up previous wins... all wins were against sides on mass drop offs of form. Hull for example were below us in the form team.

Thoughts like yours with respect is what is wrong with modern football.

But how many goes should they get? Lambert was allowed to finish 11th after relegation. How long does Cook get to make it right? We're a push over club with fans that will tolerate too much. He should get just 1 year to make it work. So far he's failed to motivate our existing squad which most on here prior to Cook thought were good enough to win this league. We have played awfully in all the games so far despite getting a draw and a win and the football has devolved in recent weeks back to aimless pumping. If this is the sort of play we can expect under Cook then we're in for a miserable time. 1 year, no second chances. Ipswich should not be in this league and there should be no excuses for anyone.

I am still not impressed. We've played terribly under Cook and the response from the players (who you all keep telling me are good) has been terrible. So either Cook isn't able to get anything out of these players because they are no good, or like Lambert, he's not a very good manager. I appreciate it's early days but considering we were playing well before he arrived, the change is the biggest slide we have seen in performances from any incoming manager at Ipswich. If he cannot improve it withing a year he must go.

Obviously you haven't been following the results. We were heading to the Playoffs before Cook arrived and had been playing the best we had been all season. Gill continued this. Cook has pulled them down.
