Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

I think Cook will end up fitting this category. See Brett Williams also, loads of goals at Aldershot but barely any at FGR. You face different challenges when teams are deeper against you and you're marked tighter. I don't believe Cook had the technical ability or intelligence to play regularly at a team fighting for promotion. He may prove me wrong but I'd see his level at mid-conference level teams.

Too many on here and some town fans generally live in the past. My advice is let it go and look to the future. New opportunities, new players, new opposition and new higher standards. That is where we are now. A big challenge but one we have to grasp and recruiting ex players and has beens will only take us backwards.

Absolutely unbelievable!

There were spells in his first season here where he was almost unplayable, one game sticks out in my memory on a Tuesday night at home.  Town were losing 1-0, can't remember who it was against, but Cook came on with about 20 to go and just destroyed their defence, grabbing two goals along the way.  The Huddersfield cup game was another game where he was on fire, think that was his second season though. Problem is that his head was never quite right here.  He was more often than not carrying far too much timber and by all accounts was incredibly homesick.

Box to box, great engine, excellent tackler and an eye for a goal as well. That was pretty much dizza up until the last 12/18 months but not now he has had to change his game. UTFM
