Paul Cook gone on 19:13 - Dec 4 with 2215 views | Steve_M | The worst Paul of the four Evans appointed. No messing about here, let’s get the next one right. |  |

Paul Cook gone on 19:13 - Dec 4 with 2205 views | Dubtractor | Wow. He can't have too many complaints really, but I thought he'd get till the end of the month at least. |  |

Paul Cook gone on 19:15 - Dec 4 with 2116 views | chicoazul | He seemed like a genuinely good bloke. Unlike some of the muppets we’ve had here. Good luck to him. What now? |  |

Paul Cook gone on 19:15 - Dec 4 with 2083 views | JDB23 | Wow, as bad as it has been I genuinely thought he would get the next couple of league games to see if there was any hope of turning it around. Sad to see it end this way as I genuinely like the bloke and would have loved for him to be the one to take us forward but it just wasn’t happening. I’m sure he’ll go on to be successful elsewhere but I don’t think he can have any complaints here. Wonder if the ownership group have anyone lined up or felt they were forced into this position after the last few days? |  | |  |

Agreed, liked the bloke but the signs haven't been right for a while. No problem with people who wanted to continue to support and see how it panned out but the board disagree clearly. |  |

Paul Cook gone on 19:17 - Dec 4 with 1983 views | Herbivore | Right call. I feel sad that it's not worked out for him here but the fact is it hasn't and he's shown no real sign of being able to turn it round. |  |

Yes and no. There has clearly been something going on behind the scenes for a little while. Paul Cook is well connected and would have known as soon as Ashton started sounding out potential replacements. |  | |  |

McGreal for the next few weeks. May even get it permanently. One thing is true, we have great finances and infrastructure in place now. Can Gamechanger bring in the man they want? |  |

Paul Cook gone on 19:22 - Dec 4 with 1630 views | Ryorry | 😱 Not surprised, but didn't think it'd be tonight. OK Gamechanger, I'll go along with whoever you choose - **as long as s/he's not called Paul/ine**!! |  |

Cook himself thought he was getting sacked two weeks ago! McGreal coming in was the writing on the wall. |  |

I know you've been supportive of cook till the end, but you can't be surprised? |  |

Paul Cook gone on 19:23 - Dec 4 with 1610 views | Darth_Koont | Wow! I hope we know what we’re doing and this isn’t just the new Banter era taking shape. Wish Cook well and hope his career gets back on track. But most importantly that we start building some momentum and confidence as a club. |  |

I actually am, and think most are! Perhaps Cook knew he needed three wins the week after all. |  |

Think we need to get the new man in ASAP tbh. McGreal won’t be the one to take us forward and we need to put wins together now if we want anything to come of this season. |  | |  |

Sorry, surprised is prob the wrong term, I more mean that you can understand why he's gone. |  |

This is going to cost them a few USD! |  | |  |

Are you saying the players caught wind of it, and that's why they weren't playing for him, ie not putting enough effort in? Someone (forget who, apols) said during the game that it looked as though he'd lost the dressing room. |  |

I'm not convinced he's ever really had the dressing room to lose. |  |
