May I take you all back 10 years... we are in division 2 fighting for promotion playing away at Port Vale. If someone told you 'you will be the richest club in the world in 10 years, with a new stadium with a board who appreciate and welcome your opinions... after Novemebr you are 6th in the Premier League and on target for a top 4 finish having just secured 2 huge big money sponsorship deals. However a vast majority of the fans will moaning about Football and the running of the club.' Wonder what you would have said back then?

Well I would have said... 'Ungrateful! They don't know how lucky they are.'

Funnily enough i'm still of that opinion!

I love this idea that we're not allowed to be annoyed/angry at the CEO saying "United" instead of "City" just because we've got a lot of money.

I have just got back from the do now and I came on this board fully expecting the thread and knowing exactly what I was going to say.

Gary Cook has made a monumental faux pas. There is absolutely no doubt about that. However, being a man who regularly sees words coming out of his mouth that are the exact opposite of what he means to say, I can empathise. It's funny but sometimes you are aware of what you cannot say and that bloody phrase just shoots out of your mouth. I believe that is what has happened here having seen it happen. He gave a great speech beforehand and I am absolutely sure that he is mortified by what has slipped out.

For all the bad words against him though, none of them compare to the vermin that booed and heckled in the aftermath. Uwe Rösler came a long way for the benefit of us yet his whole speech was virtually inaudible because of ignorant, obsessed muppets who were too busy giving it the anti-Cook, he's a rag, shit. These fucking wankers had no respect for a guy who played his heart out for us because it was too important to them to have a pop at some perceived rag.

I tell you what, I have been supporting this club for thirty years but one thing has been proven tonight, there is a significant element of our support who deserve every last bit of failure they have been given.

Re: End of Gary Cook

If someone had told me 10 years ago that we would have a load of money but weren't able to comment on the club for fear of not towing the company line I would have passed.

I agree, we have some monumental morons supporting our club. But it seems so does every other club.
 
Re: End of Gary Cook

Sorry, but I'm laughing a bit now. Idiot.

Seriously, it's a shame it (and the reaction) spoiled the night, but.... c'mon....

He should be made to do a training session with the first team, and clean all their boots afterwards. Or run around COMS naked at half time. That's how it would work in the rest of the world. You make a cock-up, you get humiliated, then everyone forgives and forgets.

I didnt think the booing infringed on when he was talking to be honest. Most of the reaction was shock and the flack came after.

DD, d you not think he should of apologised though? ITs not the gaff its how he dealt with it. Especially after the speach he had just given
