Wigan Boss - Paul Cook



Think the idea we can promote someone now who is a cert for long term is fanciful mind. not saying that cook is a good or bad thing, but Ross was meant to be long term. Long term is almost a rarity at the moment, you're looking for someone to do something a bit special for that.

Unfortunately, I think you are right.
 
I think he could become unpopular very quickly, sometimes it's not what you say but how you say it.
As many said at the start it’s no good telling the fans anything. This update is ridiculous. Does anyone expect us to be happy with that bald bloke at Wigan or Him out of toploader from Wycombe? Some update that
 
Cook would have a better chance of getting you promoted than Ross . But if it’s entertainment you want it’s on a par with Jacketball . Absolute dross to watch .
 
Why because he got promoted then couldn’t do anything in the league above and left. His team didn’t beat jack Ross team? Very strange

By all accounts that is not the reason he left. It was allegedly down to recruitment.
“He was desperate for the club - whose defined recruitment model is not to sign players over 23 and to purchase players to develop and sell on in the future - to be pragmatic and bring in two or three 'senior heads' to help the young players acclimatise to the unforgiving Championship.
“But his pleas seemed to fall on deaf ears. Results suffered and his frustrations grew.”
Co_owner Paul Conway said after promotion that the majority of the squad would be kept together but more than a third of the regular starting 11 left. Their replacements, although talented, are painfully young and inexperienced so, with the oldest players aged 24 in most games, Stendel was asked to compete in one of the most gruelling leagues in the world with a squad who are simply not ready yet.

So he would come to us because I recruitment is better?
