I agree but Christ that’s a terrible stat I’m behind Cook and can see improvement it just seems to be a slower process that I expected |  |

Cooks record v top 10 is worse than Lambert's I would think. |  |

That’s the thing. Blackpool away didn’t count as a win against a leading team in the league until later in the season. Who knows where Plymouth will end up ? |  | |  |

The removal of manager bounce. We were hardly fluid football in those games simply a freedom uplift before returning to type. If we had appointed Gill and Walker full time I genuinely don’t think we would be storming the Championship right now with Chambo as skip. |  | |  |

Cooks responsible now, but our League One record is laughable for a club our size and we’ve not even had the excuse of having a decent Trophy run like Sunderland and Pompey have had to divert from the fact we are underperforming at this level and have done for close to three years under two managers. We can’t keep accepting failure and telling people to sit down and shut up for pointing out how bad it has been. Cook has failed. He shouldn’t be given much longer to do more damage and if Gamechanger are happy with this, then how is it any different than Evans? Better PR but equally bad results… Cook out. |  | |  |

Boring. Saddling Cook with last season’s squad and then the effect of a complete change of personnel doesn’t help anyone. Of course he needs to do better. But the point is, he and the team are doing better now, even if the gains are slow and not yet enough to recover from a poor start. This insistence with burdening the present with the past is futile. What’s next? Cook doesn’t improve us enough and gets sacked but then we start questioning Gamechanger’s record when the new manager comes in and doesn’t start tearing up trees? It’s ludicrous when there’s been so much change on and off the pitch to deal with. Unless you think change wasn’t necessary? You need to be looking for progress not complaining about stuff that’s already happened and is, in itself, the whole basis of what we’re trying to change from. Your knee-jerk reactions because change isn’t happening overnight are a literal waste of time and energy. |  |

So far this season we are underperforming that dismal stat, played 5 of the current top 10 and got 2 pts. |  |

3 of the 5 also in our improved run of form (i.e. looking at games since Bolton) and led to 1 point. That record either improves very quickly, or a new man will be in |  |

Which isn’t good enough. But we’re the captive of a past that’s gone and trapped in a future that hasn’t happened yet. We can only focus on the present and how the performances and results have been slowly improving. If that stops or we go backwards then that’s the actual problem and why Cook would be sacked. |  |

We will never know will we? However, Russell Martin certainly thinks Matt Gill has got something about him (at Championship level). With regards to the "new manager bounce/removal of manager bounce", when exactly are we likely to see that kick in for Hurst/Lambert/Cook? |  |

No we won’t but to keep alluding that Gill was some magical moment in time we ignored is simply ludicrous. His mate has taken him to the Championship with him, so what? Lambert took him to the champ to and had him as coach throughout - we hardly looked we drilled. The insistence on trawling through a car wreck to find a new angle to beat the club with is just so damn boring. |  | |  |

The point being made which you seem to have missed entirely was that half of the wins at this level being referred to were under them. If they are that poor what does that actually say about Lambert and Cook? What's more you haven't explained why they didn't get this magic bounce you explain those results away with. I wasn't suggesting that they were the answer but clearly they were able to get something from last season's players that Cook was unable to. |  |

No, I’ve really not missed that point just making the point that a few others on here keep on raising them as if they turned things round and we should have stuck with them. it was three games and two of them were still dire. Maybe we should have stuck with them who knows? But the agenda is that it was a no brainer. Maybe we should have kept Chris Hogg after Mick? Maybe Everton should have kept big Dunc? Who knows? |  | |  |

A continually forced narrative is not a light hearted remark. For some reason you won’t discuss it. |  | |  |
