Garry Cook resigns (merged)

Re: Garry Cook resigns

Moomba, I'm not thick. Of course the press would run with it. My post clearly points to the motivations behind why it was 'sat on' and the driving forces behind it.

I can think of two reasons why it may have been "sat on". First, it's a valuable bargaining chip in a particularly nasty game. A shame, but I don't think think it's a tactic that only one side of the agent/club relationship would use.

Second, and one I hadn't really considered before today, was it held off on to protect someone? Maybe SWP with the Ian Wright link, maybe Nedum with a hope to get back on side at the club. Doesn't make sense to piss off the CEO of a club when there is still something to lose.

If I was twenty years younger, I'd probably use the expression "don't hate the player, hate the game".

But I don't believe this is some conspiracy designed to get at the club and Cook. The press would be onto this story regardless of the clubs (except the rags).

I'm under the impression it was a mixture of both. If I were to put a bet down, it would be that she and that cancer, Ian Wright, (Yes I see what I did there. ;) ) probably told Cook et al. they had damaging information on him to try and force a move. When it didn't work out for both players, they pulled this after the window closed.

Do you know what part Ian Wright played in this? Someone alluded to it a few pages back. I too could see how that would fit, considering the timing etc etc

No, but I did read on here that he was the one responsible for the leak to the Sun.

No idea if it's true but it does seem to fit.

Re: Garry Cook resigns

He nearly got the boot in early 2010.

He made a mistake, lied about it then took the easy route out..

i'm not too bothered to be honest, i don't see why this will affect what happens on the pitch in any shape or form.

he's done alot of good work for city and you can't ever take that away from him.

but sometimes what he has done in his time at city was criminal, and as good as he is he's a snake aswell.

glad it's sorted, it's been done and it's over.

now we can focus to what's happening back on the pitch.

SHES BATTLING FUCKING CANCER YOU FUCKWITS

I've had a family member die of cancer and 1 I visit 3 times a week because they can't leave their bed due to cancer. Neither of them would use their cancer to gain sympathy/money in the way Nedums mum has.

Yes cook was wrong and probably right to resign but she is pathetic and far worse than cook, for using her illness like that.

Because he os not good enough and maybe just maybe have something to do With him trash talking our manager and club om soccer am?
And his stupid mother WHO Waits fucking eleven months and goes to the fucking sun. They can Both fuck off.

sorry to hear about your family members,

but maybe she is just looking out for her son and who can blame her? he's been frozen out for what reason???
and she may not have long left!
