If so, what are you basing it on? |  |

I rate Cook think he is the best man to get us promoted.
Experience and squad is key here
Keep the faith | | | |

they are just words without meaning I am afraid.
The proof is in the pudding he has made. - he is a terrible cook. | | | |

Yes, but on an increasingly inaccurate notion that anyone could succesfully manage this group of players in this league. |  | | |

I don't think he will.
However, the route to it being possible is him getting a very good tactician and motivator to work alongside him. It is not impossible to go on a great run and move up the table quickly. Look at the state nodge were in when Lambert came in for them at this level.
However, the longer we fail to go on that run, the less likely it is. |  |

Honestly, no.
He was my pick for manager, and I still don't think it is time to sack him (though not far off!), but you can't ignore just how bad his record is since he joined us. How we repeatedly get bullied in away games by bang average teams, that we've not won 2 league games in succession in 28 games, that our defensive record is so remarkably bad.
I just don't see how you turn that around into being a genuine promotion challenger. |  |

I don't think anyone can say they think he WILL get us promoted, not even Cook or anyone at the club. It's a bit of a daft question, frankly. |  |

No. Nothing to suggest he has the tactical ability to do so. Couple of wins at home to struggling clubs has been the exception to the norm - poor performances and/or throwing games away. I can’t see it getting any better, but hope to be proved wrong. | | | |

No, I think it looks very unlikely that Cook will get us promoted unfortunately. He's shown nothing here to suggest he's capable of doing so. |  |

No
I've been his biggest fan, tried to give as much time as possible this season forgetting last.
But as soon as it turns positive, he then shows why overall it's not gonna happen
The inability to give a HT team talk, the inability to see a game out with sensible subs.
The inability to change a style to suit the flow of the game LIVE.
We're currently in Lambert December/Jan period, where each little win gives hope. but then you'll soon see a result that reminds you how inept he was. |  |

Why is it a daft question? I didn’t speak to one Town fan in the Summer who wasn’t expecting us to be challenging. We’re in mid-October and that pre-season optimism has completely gone. If he’s not the man then we need to appoint someone who can turn it around. There are enough games and enough points to get into the play offs with momentum. That won’t happen if Cook stays. If we wait until Christmas to make a change it’s going to be too late for this season. It’s slipping away very quickly. | |

Saying you can't say we'll go up under him doesn't automatically mean we won't either.
You could've asked "Is it time to make a change?" but you deliberately loaded your question so it was impossible to answer in the affirmative. | |

I don't see where the turnaround is coming from, really. It's the same performances over and over again, with no sign that anything in particular is being learned or improving.
Today was identical to half a dozen other performances this season, including 2 of our 3 wins. It's just what we look like now and I haven't seen anything to suggest we'll look any different in 10-15 games' time. |  |

No.
Id take steps forward though. As long as I see us going forward then I think thats ok.
But right now we are struggling. Its hard to be positive when we keep looking so weak defensively.
I think Cook will get to Christmas. |  |

Very little chance now. He could have won the Champions League five times over for all I care. Top half for him and his team will be an achievement. Why? Because here and now they aren’t very good for League One and neither is he. We are lucky to have the points we have. Seven months of shocking management.
He has between now and the end of October for me to find a team to not only control games, but win them well. While the opposition know that if they get stuck in, get in the faces of this mob one to three points are guaranteed, we can forget it.
Frankly, it’s not good enough. We should be winning games like this with ease. We can’t because I worry the players bought are not as good as the hype and Cook’s a joke compared with his track record. It’s like his clueless identical twin has turned up and giving it a go.
However, unless the club s going to bring in a top level manager (not a tomato faced tool like Bruce!), there’s little point in changing things unless the remaining October games prove totally disastrous. Sad, but that’s where I think we are. It’s get rid in two weeks time or write off the season and bin him in March for me. [Post edited 16 Oct 2021 18:10]

“We are lucky to have the points we have”
Nonsense. Plenty of things to legitimately complain about without talking out of your arse |  |

I didn’t load it in that way at all. It was a genuine question. I want to understand what those who still think he’s the man to take us up this season to explain why. | |

Agreed. I think that we have been a bit unlucky not to have a few more points. Just based on the fact that nearly every shot a team has had against us has ended up in our net. | | | |

Yeah, if we had even the average save percentage for the division our goal difference would be as good as Wigan's. Whether that's bad luck or badly misjudging Hladky's quality relative to ordinary L1 goalkeepers is a question too. | |

I think he might yes. I base this on the gradual improvements we have shown since Bolton. |  |

No
He looks lost here
100% he will not be here next season so hopefully somone will lead us to promotion, but it won't be Cook |  |

And we’ve basically done the same at the other end, fortunately |  |

No and it pains me to say it because was the manager whom I wanted to replace Lambert. Would love Cook to succeed and prove us he is the right man for us but can't see it
Second half today was a carbon copy of Cheltenham and Accrington. We have never troubled Cambridge goalie. We never learn as we don't kill the games off. Time and time again the same s**t. Too many points dropped against so called crap teams and we are yet to play Sunderland, Wigan, Portsmouth, Rotherham. I am afraid we will need a miracle to go up.
He is very stubborn with his 4-2-3-1 and doesn't seem to have plan B or C.
And how on earth Burgess is an upgrade on Nsiala is beyond me. We were nowhere near as bad with Toto in defence last season as we are now. |  | | |
