Andy Cook

Wreham are not going to have players based near there they will be signing players from all over the Uk. Sure he will bag a lift and get his experience covered.

Staying away a few nights a week while earning more money than he would staying at Bradford City will surely be something he will do if it came to it. Last big contact chance for Cook.

 

In all honesty Sparks and Rupp will be foolish to break the bank for Cook. If he leaves good luck but if he stays it has to be within our wage structure.

He carried us last season but overall he isn’t that good.

 

I don't understand your thinking, just bagged 30+ balls goals and carried us but ''isn't that good''. Baffling really.

 

Agree about the not breaking the wage structure but christ the last comment is up there with your ‘best’, to an extent (no reason he shouldn’t be our best paid player though),
He didn’t just carry the burden of goals, he probably kept us in the top half single handedly

 

Purple patch of a season.

Nowhere to be seen in the play off games.

 

Haaland would have struggled to get on the score sheet with those tactics. Nothing to do with Cooks ability

 

His goal scoring record whilst at Valley Parade suggests your wrong again.

Season 2020/21 played 21 scored 8 leading scorer.
Season 2021/22 played 39 scored 12 leading scorer.
Season 2022/23 played 44 scored 27 leading scorer.

 

Very few do, but he's harmless.

 

Cook wants to stay in the North or North East so realistically there's only Burton that I can see coming in for him . If we offer him decent terms I definitely think he will stay after all he travels down with his mates and I really think he's settled here at the club which showed by his return of goals this season.

 

He’ll either stay with us on improved terms or he’l sign for the league2 play off winner.
Could even go to Salford if the money was right.

 

Burton? In the midlands, no chance he will end up there

 

W

What if Carlisle get promoted,would they be interested?.

 

I agree. I could see him possibly moving to Stockport or Carlisle (depending on which of them goes up), if he fancies a spell in league 1 and of course, if those clubs are interested in him. I don't think he'd want to go to Salford as I think he loves playing in front of big crowds, but money talks and if they offered him silly money, he might be tempted.

 

His goals have dried up a bit recently too...

 

Can you honestly see MH signing a comparable replacement and pay him less
30 goal a season strikers are a rare breed accepting it was an exceptional season with the supply he got it's a great achievement
I give you Oliver as an example !!!!
You've been saying all season he isn't that good the record book tells a very different story

 

Something we have to change next season is our reliance on goals from one player

 

As Roy happy man Keane dats give me a 20 goal striker any day. Sod the tracking back and defending etc etc. we have an outlet don’t lose it.

 

Oh and cook defends very well.

 

Absolutely
We got lucky with Cook last season, to say he wasn't 1st choice to begin with and despite being dropped mid season he still scored the goals he did
Tactics, Formation personnel etc will have to change or next season with or without Cook will be a struggle
Hope lessons have been learned it will be a far stronger league next season

 

Stockport, Salford, Carlisle - all up north.

He isn’t going to short of options and teams that can offer more than us.
