Speaks volumes doesn't it, perhaps coming across as not up to it, too inexperienced and maybe not as professional as required. Jobs for the boys just didn't work and did look somewhat unbalanced and unthought. |  |

It was the most unconvincing part of the Paul Cook project. |  | | |

Too inexperienced? I don't think that was the issue.
We have replaced them with Rene Gilmartin who has never been in the dugout for a competitive game, and Kieron Dyer who has only ever done interim spells as an assistant, and Carl Putney who is the academy GK coach. |  | | |

The owners and Ashton authorised the recruitment of them. The only one that was already here would have been Roberts, unless I'm mistaken? [Post edited 6 Dec 2021 10:56]

To be fair to Dyer, he's been coaching quite a long time now. |  |

Gary Roberts? No, he was brought in at the same time Cook was. | |

Not really surprising though. That's fairly normal with any manager change and they weren't up to it. |  |

It was obvious as soon as Cook couldn't get Richardson, that we were badly served with experienced coaching staff.
No one amongst them with the gravitas to question any of Cook's tactics or substitutions.
Paul Cook will get another job very soon. Other than the kitman I doubt he will call on Jeffers or Roberts again. |  |

"Craney was recruited as a coach at the same time having previously worked with Cook at Wigan as kitman, although the Blues manager subsequently said that while that was his job title with the Latics that wasn’t his job, that was the only way to get him on to his staff."
Surprised it's ended like this because this sounded really professional and not tinpot at all. |  | | |

Think it's just standard, same happened with previous bosses. And from what I gather PC didn't actually know Franny Jeffers before he brought him in, had been recommended. I'm guessing but I wonder whether that was by Joe Royle. |  | | |

We should have had Dyer coaching the first team years ago. Madness that Cook didn't use him more. I'm really not sad to see Cook go when I think about the backroom staff he put together. |  |

There was no discernible coaching under Cook. Except for Celina who was slowly getting up to speed again, and Edmundsen, most of our players were going backwards rather than forwards.
I liked the bloke's honesty and enthusiasm, and was just desperate for Town to do well, but let's face it Cook's one and only tactic is get better players than the oppo who can do the same thing better than them, and over the course of a season we'll be there or thereabouts. The footy was more fun generally, but that is such an old school strategy and Cook is indeed of the old school. Deffo Evans' appointment and needed to do a hell of a lot better in the short time he had to keep his role in the post Evans structure. |  |

Franny Jeffers had been coaching around the same time period as Dyer.
Didn't stop question marks around his experience. | | | |

Yep, so under Evans rather than Gamechanger, no? | |

I think it was the combined experience that was perceived to be the issue, rather than just one.
And with Jeffers I didn't hear too much of the inexperience complaints, it was more the off the field stuff people (including myself) took issue with. | |

Although when Keane, Jewell and Lambert were sacked, one of the coaching staff stayed on as caretaker manager until a replacement could be found. McPartland, Hutchinson & Gill.
I said on Saturday that it was a sad indictment of Cook's backroom staff that not one of them could be considered as up to the job of being a caretaker manager for Tuesday's game.
Cook was mad not to have kept Gill as part of his team. | |

McParland and Hutchings stayed on until their contracts were settled, while Gill left once his contract was up. I think they wanted someone with experience to do the caretaker's job, for however long it is, and none of PC's staff have taken a game above U23s level. Assume Gilmartin has been brought in as there aren't enough coaches on the staff for the day to day. | | | |
