Flouncing is unreal. These players and team in general will take a while to get going. Yes, last night was frustrating. However, I am sure things will get better soon. Hang on in there. This is a marathon not a sprint. Have a great day and let's have positive vibes. |  | | |  |

Joe definitely has a much better understanding of the game than you do, it's not even close to be fair.
Cook has good pedigree and that's reassuring, other managers with pedigree have come here and failed though so it's no guarantee. Thus far his tenure hasn't been great, I find it odd that people get precious when this is pointed out given that he's more or less said so himself. Everyone wants him to succeed here, let's hope it starts happening sooner rather than later. |
And the matches come thick and fast now which is a great chance to build up a head of steam, and against average sides too. 3 points on saturday and we'll all be happier. |  | | |

We need a 10-match moratorium (at least) on serious judgements on Cook's performance in both directions IMO. No re-litigating last season (in either direction!), no handing out medals for improved performances (or even for winning a game!), no declaring that Cook's screwed everything up, until we have a decent sample size from this season. |  |

haha. Rather proves my point.
I'm not remotely bothered if you're not going to engage. It won't stop me pointing out your nonsense for the benefit of others.
Like for example how you keep posting it was Newport's youths. Not only was it also mostly our youths (which you weirdly don't mention when mentioning theirs) but I've just read in another thread that 5 of the players involved started the play-off final last season. So you were posting nonsense in that regard too.
The only reason you won't engage with me is I argue my points too well.
Carry on going for the low hanging fruit, it's what you do best. | |

The reason I won't engage with you is because you're a tedious bellend, but keep telling yourself it's because you're a master debater if it makes you feel better. Have a nice evening, I'm off out for sushi now. | |

"Chico said his results have been useless and was accused of flouncing - they have been useless. 4 wins out of 18 for us in League 1 is useless."
Because Chico had clearly ignored the context of those results, as even you appear to be doing.
When 90% of managers go into new jobs at new clubs, I'd venture to say that 99% of those clubs weren't in anything approaching the kind of appalling mess that ITFC were in after 13 years of ME's ineptitude & neglect. You've only got to consider things like dismal state of our "Sports Science" dept., with one physio expected to multi-task in a whole heap of other roles, our fitness coach being expected to do the job remotely from 400 miles away!! etc etc |
I’m full6 behind PC and people really shouldn’t be panicking one week into the season. Hoooooooooowwwwwwwwwever……..
I don’t buy into this coming into a mess of a club as an excuse to our poor finish last season.
Yes, in the long run, rebuilding the club from the Evans era is a massive Job which requires time and patience. But we were in a great position to get into the top six when Cook came in. He didn’t need to rip anything apart. He didn’t even need to get that group of players to replicate their early season form. He just need to get them to win something like 6 games out of 17 to get us in the top six. It wasn’t a big ask. [Post edited 11 Aug 2021 19:25]

The only thing that hasn't been reinvigorated so far is a winning mentality. So I can appreciate why a number of people are uncomfortable, and rightly so.
That said, there is some extreme flouncing going on to convey that. |  |

Very sensible.
It’s effing painful on here currently and I’ve limited myself to how much I’m in here but have to occasionally check in to see who’s likely to be the next signing.
Bit of patience guys and girls, if we don’t win 5 of our first 10 games I will be very surprised. We’ve had one league game which we didn’t actually lose and everyone is panicking.
I even posted my own doubts last night but last nights defeat was nothing like any defeat we’ve suffered in last 2 years, we’d win that game 9 times out of 10 with that performance. |  |

The minnows made as many changes as us though, that's the point. Morecambe handed out pretty much as many debuts as we did, Newport handed out even more. Gelling becomes less of a mitigating factor when playing other sides who are in the same boat. We should have had more than enough about us to win these first two games. |
And Morcambe have just won away at Blackburn. Why shouldn`t they be a good team, just because they are Morcambe.?. small teams can be good as well you know. NOBODY has a given right to win. just let the project grow, There will be results that don`t go our way, but that is part of it, it`s called learning, at least after going behind in both games, they didn`t lay down, they fought back. | | | |

Sorry, you're right. I should be delighted at a home draw against Morecambe, ecstatic even. | |

Doesn't detract from the fact we should be winning against Morecambe with our squad, resources, and supposed top manager. | | | |

By your logic we should be comfortably winning every game. Thankfully money isn't the only basis for success. |  |

You've overlooked my points about the state of our "Sports Science" dept., and our "fitness coach" working remotely from 400 miles away, which would have been pretty key, esp considering our injury record & the state of fitness of our players referred to by our new owners/management team. | |

Ah, but what happens if we're never up and running?  
It's all part of the 'fun' of supporting a team innit. Everyone's different. Some fans are happy with the promise of better times, some need more evidence. Some only care about results, some are happy with better performances. Some have made their mind up about Cook and are already fully support or not.
I'm yet to be convinced either way and I don't see the point of drawing any conclusions yet following the complete squad reboot. Patience is a virtue and all that. |  |

90% of managers come into jobs where they are in rubbish form, without their own players and the club is in a bad state otherwise there wouldn't be a change.
Chico said his results have been useless and was accused of flouncing - they have been useless. 4 wins out of 18 for us in League 1 is useless.
It's hardly that controversial a statement |
