No he didn't.  Is this seriously how the forum's going to be until May?  Come on folks.


I've a feeling it might not be lasting until May...

That's fine, that's your opinion . Now your last sentence you state you wasn't a fan of Cook....that's the same as the negative ones on here now not being a fan of LJL . Just saying like.....


Yeah, I suppose I ought to go around spamming every other thread with anti-Cook digs and criticism, just to get into the current "Fishy vibe".

See what I mean, you stated you wasn't a fan of Cook, I've stated I'm not a fan of Lewis and now you come back with a load of boll ocks because it's not of the same opinion as you...

Quoted from gytone
Hurst once said that if you play well you will keep youre place, in the Huddersfield game Cook played really well, as did most of the team, but was dropped for the next game. Cook was obviously a confidence player and IMO perhaps that is one of the reasons his confidence was shot and then maybe he let his standards drop in training !!


The Huddersfield game was in January!  He looked unfit at the start of the season and got left behind. Cook had several chances to show what he could do and as I recall blew them all. One that sticks in my mind was the replay against Coalville when he was substituted to save him any further embarrassment...


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Nope, I was just being facetious. Just a sarky comment to point out that pretty much every thread on the forum has descended into diatribes against LJL or Hurst over the past few days. Endless (and mostly pointless) digs at both.

It'll be nice when the football begins again to give us something proper to talk about.

That's because Cook hardly played last season!

Effectiveness?

Player   Goals   Mins On Pitch    Mins Per Goal

LJL         8           3,684             460.50
Cook       7           1,497             213.86

I suppose it depends how you define 'effective' ....







There is far more to being a good striker than just scoring goals. Cook's general play was next to useless last season hence why he finds himself in the BSN.

I'd say location and £££££ decided that.

Perhaps but I shouldn't think he was in great demand any higher than that level because over two seasons his performances didn't warrant being at this level.

What do you mean about the £££££? We'd heard Cook was homesick during his time here so a move to the west coast was understandable (obviously well-settled over there), but he'll not be earning too much at Barrow I wouldn't expect.

I'd imagine that his pretty average goalscoring record over the past couple of years will probably mean that few, if any, Conference Premier clubs would have been interested in him.

Barrow have got a rich benefactor but I think you're right about very few (if any) Conference teams being interested.
