It’s good to know that 9 months later he can use the exact same quote:

From March:

Mentally we are not as strong as we should be. You always feel at the minute that there might be something in us that can go wrong the wrong way.

Can't really criticise him for simply using Cook's own words. They are hardly taken out of context and not overly selective.

I like this one, a few weeks before he announced he was going to dump the whole squad and bring in a new one.

“Over two years we've probably seen a real big turnaround in players, probably too many coming in and out the club in too quick a time."

I am also reminded just how bad the end of last season was.

Proper bad, wasn’t it? Like really really bad. I think I tuned it all out around the time of the 0-0 at Rochdale. Ipswich-based therapists will have a field day in years to come as we all come to terms with the trauma we’ve seen.

Don’t see an issue with that quote or sentiment given the state of things at the time. As long as the squad he has in place doesn’t have a load more changes made to in Jan then no issue.

“Lots” being the operative word. No issues with a couple coming in and a few going out. No point Nolan or Barrie being here and we may as well swap Coulson out. Other than the obvious who are in the window, I’m hoping we keep it lean.

it won't have a load more but there are clearly areas that need addressing. We had a squad overhaul in the summer but that doesn't mean things won't need shuffling moving forward. I genuinely don't have an issue with it. I think the club is progressing in the right direction, just not as fast as we all would like.

Fans flouncing and sniping at every little thing is just daft after 9 month imo. Certain board legends forcing an agenda is a bit irksome too but what can you do.

Think you'll be surprised by the number tbh it won't be a couple.

Tbh. With 19 singings plus those who stayed plus our u23s. It shouldn't need a Jan window to get the squad working.
What if those players don't work either.. just buy more in the summer again?

There's no reason we should be struggling with the squad we have. But PCs lack of movement on team set up doesn't make use of it wisely.

football doesn't always work that way. Never would all 19 signings work out for whatever reason. If he 'shopped a fair bit' at previous clubs, what's the issue? It worked.

For the avoidance of doubt I think the quote is funny/awkward rather than see it as a stick to beat him with.

What's the issue. I dunno ask PC. He said the club had to many players coming in and going out.

He was talking about the previous 2 years. And then went on to do what he felt was wrong for the club originally.. so any more signings in Jan just continues the contradiction.

Hiw do these little provincial news outlets make any money when their websites are borderline unusable? Every time I try to read it the text moves up or down!
Anyway having persevered it’s quite funny reading those quotes. I think Cook is a good bloke despite being a bin dipper who genuinely wants us to go well unlike the previous incumbent. Let’s hope somehow he can find a way to get some form going consistently.

We're fairly consistent. We manage a good win every 3-4 weeks (first 6 games excepted) and then follow it with 4 or 5 performances that range from 'meh' to 'oh ffs'. We're probably due one of the good wins again soon, hopefully.

There is huge expectation here, and if we are not doing well there are plenty of people waiting to stick the boot in. The reality is a lot of football players don’t have that mental strength but a winning team is generally a team of players that do.

The defensive recruitment did not go well last summer.

It’s shame we can transfer some of our so called fans, because we need an overhaul in that department too.
