So we basically needed Paul Cooks previous coach when Paul Cook was appointed............

I've just read this piece on him too. He sounds brilliant and exactly the sort I'd like to see us go for.

This quote made me laugh....

My thoughts exactly. It would be brilliant to have a specialist coach like that on the books, but how is his man management, formations, tactics, player selection, etc. etc.? Is he happy to travel up and down the country watching the opposition? A lot more to being a manager than just being on the training ground.

My reading of it was that was how he got started in coaching, and now he's improved his all around game.

Our persistent inability to take a good set piece?

To be fair, either there are Championship clubs interested and it is between them and whether Chelsea can attract him to stay or his agent has made that up for the article in order to attract interest in him.

I would have no issue with us going for someone untried as long as they are the right character and will put a management team together.

Quite clearly enough have been persuaded to bet on him that his odds have closed. The bookies must be rubbing their hands with glee.

His wikipedia page said he was assistant head coach to McInnes at Ipswich Town a couple of minutes ago but has since been changed back.

I doubt any of the board were editing his Wikipedia today in case of an announcement

Would this article - which mentions other clubs and not us - start shortening the odds?

Could be nothing and just there’s no real news getting out with our real candidates. Ashton did seem to plug the rumours in the summer.

Would expect us to be very interested in him.

Fits the mold of a head coach rather than an old school manager.

Would be an appointment I would thoroughly support - comes with a very good reputation and high praise from Tuchel (doesn't get much better than that).

In the current market of realistic options, he is seemingly the best option.

We could do a lot worse. I just worry if we go for someone like Harris who is out of work we will just end up going through the same old motions and changes , building up our expectations and quote possibly still staying in this division.

We certainly need to do something new and different as the tried and trusted approach has led us, amongst other restrictions, to this point , which is half way down the Third division with a slight chance of the play offs.

He’s meant to be an outstanding general coach not just set pieces. Was part of Cook’s team at Wigan before moving on.

Risky appointment no doubt but he has some serious redentials.

We are after a Head Coach, not a manager. The fact that Barry has specialised at Chelsea is probably more to do with the fact that they have tieing up laces coaches, goal celebration coaches and time-wasting coaches - ie a lot of coaches! He is highly regarded, and has qualifications of a more general nature. He is more than just a set-piece coach (although that skillset could well prove to be handy!

Ready! Steady! Cook!

There are plenty of encouraging articles about him, which show he's more than that. Why don't you read a few!

Well if a manager does not make a decent set piece coach ! maybe ?

No idea if he's the right man or not (although looks good at first read), but he's definitely the right sort of man for me, and the right sort of approach from the club - head coach type, building for next season and beyond. Promotion this season possible, but club systematic progress more important, promotion next season at latest vital.

Yeah, he feels like another missing piece of the jigsaw to me.

Agreed, a bit like Hurst, the idea is right but whether he is the right man… would be more than happy with appointing him but if Aberdeen and Cardiff are interested he might have his eye on those jobs?

Hurst was the wrong man and the wrong idea - he was never a head coach, hasn't been before or since, and wasn't an up and coming manager.

Thanks for all your answers.

Was a genuine question, and some good reading.

Some of you got a little bit precious, but that's to be expected.
