Go on Cookie!! “I think no different from all supporters, you’ll always get good supporters, in my opinion, who have genuine conversations about the club, you’ll always get people in the modern world now through social media who are just drama queens, if you like. They’re just drama queens in my world.” | |

He is, up to a point. But he keeps talking about “culture and work ethic” as if that’s the answer to our woes. Surely it’s more about tactics and game management. | |

It is purely a deflection tactic because he is under pressure. Lambert was like this when he was reaching the end as well. | | | |

Right or wrong. It's a dangerous game to play when we saw what happened with MM when he said it He's left himself nowhere to go now. He has to turn the tide and quickly. Otherwise that relationship with the drama queen's will only get worse. | |

Not sure I agree. If you listen to the fans forums and other interviews with Mark Ashton, he constantly beats that drum too. At times, I don’t think some people understand the amount of change that has happened at our club in such a short space of time. (Not aimed specifically at you). | | | |

One thing I’ve learnt after witnessing Ipswich in the era of the Internet and social media is that those drama queens never go away. Almost no matter what happens on the pitch. They’re just part and parcel of the game now. And all you can do is ignore them/take the p/ss. | |

Trouble is, same with Mick, it’s only a small minority but they’re always the loudest. | |

I think his interview is massively indicative of where we're at. Stating the obvious, but if all was well, he wouldn't be making those comments. He's right of course, but whether or not it's a good idea to come out and say it is another matter. They way I look at it, Cook has started the war for our support. We're not where we want to be, so he needs time to try and improve us. In order to do that, he needs to get the hardcore support behind him and drown out his detractors. It's divisive of course, but the war is coming whether he wants it or not, so better to fire the first salvo. December is huge. If we pick up enough points to climb the table, he'll buy himself the time he wants from the fans. If we don't, he's quickly going to lose the war. | |

Genuine question Darth. Do you think it's sensible to name tag those who aren't supportive of what he's achieving? We know he's right. But it's not something that needs to be said by a manager imo. | |

Drama queens on 12:28 - Dec 3 with 2124 views | clive_baker | It's always easier to make such remarks from a base of success, there's more credability. When you're coming out with calling supporters drama queens because they're understandably showing some concerns that we're 11th in the league and miles off the top sides, then it looks a bit...desperate and misplaced IMO. | |

Quite an interesting time to do it coming upto packPR where the new attendees you'd imagine are the ones who have stayed away due to the pain of recent failures.... not sure they'll sit quietly if those games don't pan out how we want them too. | |

Agreed, the criticism is obviously getting to him. Also disagree when he says we've had one bad performance. | |

I think it’s sensible and right to call out drama queens wherever they are. They’re social and footballing vampires. | |

Drama queens on 12:45 - Dec 3 with 1957 views | sflurrie | In my most humble of opinions, I think that we should just remain supportive of Cook and the team regardless of results. My reason for thinking this, is that whatever our opinions - the team at the helm are actually quite astute and also quite ruthless. I believe they will dispose of Cookie at exactly the point where they see their investment failing; and might even be set - and known by all parties including Cook? Cook obviously not where he wants to be. Nor am I, nor are my friends and family! But evidence of capability is best judged by looking at past performance - and that of Cook and his players is impressive. I'll be disappointed if they release him this season, but think they be attempting to make the right decision for the club. | | | |
Drama queens on 12:50 - Dec 3 with 1911 views | jeera | I've seen a post or three accusing posters of hating the manager for questioning whether he's the right man for Town. Hating ffs. I'd say that's dramatic. | |

I know what you're saying. But for balance, Robson had a dig at the supporters more than once (famously called us a bunch of zombies on one occasion). It didn't end too badly for him. Football is largely a game of opinions and if you want to be billy bollox by dishing it out, then you shouldn't object if you get some back. | | | |
