    Oh FFS! Talk about overreaction. He looks out of form and probably injured. But anyone who thinks that a fit Andy Cook isn’t a decent striker at this level needs to watch different sport.

    I got ridiculed for saying similar much earlier in the season. Totally different physique to start of last season.

    A corner that their defender heads away from outside the box.

    Sums up the half.

    Playing and set up exactly like MH would have done.

    Player's see themselves as playing in league 1 apparently.. :joy:

    Its not BS. Look at his physique, this kit really shows it up. You can see his belly and a sizeable arse. And when he jumps he doesn't get off the ground. He's gone back to where he was before last season, probably down to complacency after his 3 years deal as you say.

    He certainly does look to be carrying some timber.

    You'll have to fight off Andy Cook first.

    This blame is all on the management above
    They allowed Hughes to throw away cash on what looked like pick and mix signings not worthy of pub football
    That just showed the lack of experience he had at this level
    This was quite clear after the first season which ended in massive failure
    Not recruiting another striker and goalkeeper is ridiculous

    Commercially you can’t knock it but actually what a football is all about is offensive!
    Massive failure
    The sooner Rupp has disappeared the better. He is poison to the club

    Bollocks. He’s clearly overweight and carrying an injury. If you can’t see the difference in his physique and the way he moves from last season then you’re not paying attention.

    If he’s any sense, he’s hiding somewhere in the Everglades.

    A rebuild in January will cost serious money. Irrespective of who is appointed as manager, we'll need to be paying off 3 or 4 players with some on lengthy contracts. We'll need to recruit some genuine quality to improve the squad. We might well be stuck with some loanees until the end of the season. Do you imagine that will happen under Rupp's ownership?

    When he's scoring - no mention of his apparent weight problems
    When he's not scoring - cos he's fat and overweight innit
