Thanks To Garry Cook.

Sound guy Cookie.

He falls into the 'if I saw him walking down the othet side of the street I'd cross over and talk to him'.

Some current and past players don't fall into that category.

Shame he made the odd fuck up but nobody is infallible. I doubt we'd have had such a poor transfer window after winning the league with him still here.
 
Think Garry Cook was the Boris Johnson of City. Occasional foot in mouth stuff of course but generally did a good job and had the club at heart. Maybe did some unorthodox things but can't really dispute that he always wanted the best for the club.
 
Absolute top guy IMO. For those who are familiar with the very successful Sierra Leone Appeal this would never have happened at the level it did without his support. One of the first jobs he gave Paul Lake in his role of Ambassador for CITC was to make the Sierra Leone Appeal happen and to ensure we got that fantastic 30 seater coach to take over there. Some people think that Garry is something of a publicity seeker but he made it clear when myself and the other guys met him that he wanted his part kept quiet and for others to take all the credit.
 
He probably meant to give the tickets to someone else but sent them over to you by mistake.

On Wednesday night me and a few friends were in the Bierkeller (Printworks) Garry was only in doing a press conference for the UFC. After the conference he came into the bar and had a few beers with us which he paid for as well very kind of him. He told us a few stories good 1s we chatted and watched the match he's really down to earth that's the 3rd time i've met him. Just before he left he gave us promoter tickets (6) for this Saturdays UFC at the Arena and i've just been checking the prices but wow I didn't realise how much they cost £200. Anyway I wish to thank him and I can't wait for it now :)

Thought i'd share my story he's a great person and still follows City very much.

I don't suppose anyone reading that will have their mind changed on the fella, he seems to be marmite to city fans.
My view, FWIW, is that on balance he was a positive influence & a force for good in the club. I've never met him, but from all I read he's a good bloke who wants the best for the club.

Cheers for posting & enjoy the UFC (I think!)

I agree with you .....
