Ipswich must be some snake pit. Granted today’s result will have been disappointing and their not 20 points clear at the top etc. What do they expect?
There were clearly problems in the club long before Cookie took charge and it takes more than money to sort them out.
Cook has not just had to rebuild a team on the pitch, he’s had to do it off the pitch too. He was doing this and it was obviously a blow not to get Leam in.It does make me realise, more than ever, what a great setup we have from top to bottom, including us fans.
He spent a fortune to build a team and its not pulling up trees.
Hope Morsy feels good about moving down from the championship. What the hell was he thinking of?. Shows even more what impact Richardson had on the success wherever Cook has been.
Lee Johnson been photographed giving fans the v sign after they slagged him off after another poor result.
I said he would be out before the January window.
Perhaps Cooky might fancy his chances at Sunderland come January. From Matlock to ManU
What a journey!He should have stayed at Wigan IMHO, even though it meant working for considerably less £££. He had a chance to have become a legend, but instead he thought himself too good to build a club back from nothing, or maybe he realised that he wasn’t up to the task and could only work well when he was spending someone else’s money on players. He seems to have blamed everyone else, including the fans, for his 19 signings not doing the business at Ipswich.
Typical scouser – always the victim, its never my fault.
The problems with clubs like Ipswich & even your very own Sunderland is that they think they are bigger & better than what they actually & realistically are. I think even the likes of Klopp & Pep would struggle at said clubs.

To be fair he did us a huge favour by resigning ,removing his substantial salary from the wage bill when we were in administration. I don’t think he thought Leam would stay with us .He clearly needed him by his side at Ipswich. We now have the benefit of Leam’s considerable potential as a top manager.
As I said, “working for considerably less £££”. He earned nowt between leaving Wigan and joining Ipswich, so he could have worked that time at Wigan for minimal salary and renegotiated once the takeover was completed, but he thought he was better than having to manage in L1, yet now he’s got a sacking from L1 on his CV, so how good exactly is Cook.
To Runcorn’s little dig – we are a 3rd division club with 3rd division players and a 3rd division manager, but play in an international standard stadium, train at a Cat 1 academy and have 25000 season ticket holders. Everything off-field is premier league standard. Everything on-field is pub-league standard. I agree that Klopp and Pep would struggle to get a tune out of this, and any other 3rd division squad, simply because they are 3rd rate players who play in this league because nobody higher up wants them.

Not sure you are right with that Mutty . Cook was clearly gutted that the brilliant side he had put together ( with Richardson ) in the Championship had been dismantled and sold for peanuts. That side was going places and would have been strong challengers for promotion the following season. I don’t think he thought he was better than league 1 , he just needed a break from football .
He is a slow burner so they may have got to January and turned the tide.
I think that is what would have happened with Cook and they are only 7 points from play off places.
Maybe more to this than meets the eye because he hasn’t been given enough time.

I thought you’d signed championship quality players this time?
