Seems like a really strange career move. I would have thought a championship club would be snapping him up. Burn out?
Cookie back to Chesterfield

Maybe he's been found out like Jackett and L1 & 2 are his limit

But managers are attracted to clubs obviously on the up and a couple of promotions there would rebuild his reputation.

He was ticking along nicely at Wigan before the shit hit the fan. Losing Richardson was a big blow though...

its just a short term, til the end of the season thing. He is well placed to get another promotion on his CV. Better to do that and get paid for a few months than siting around earning nothing much.

Did someone get sacked at Chesterfield? Would seem a bit harsh as they’re doing well.

Bullying, I believe, P_m.

Both Cook & Jackett loved 4-2-3-1.
Great formation away bur so Negative at home. At least Cook was prepared to listen to supporters & become morec adventurous unlike Mr Negative Jackett!

I don't think Cook listened to the supporters, more to the player revolt

Cook is in the Sky Studio tonight covering Fulham v Millwall. The panel tried to get out of him if he is taking over Chesterfield, he knows they are at Weymouth Saturday so perhaps he is. One of my favourite Pompey wins was the 6.1 Cheltenham one which gave us the Div 2 title. Grateful for that and wish him well wherever he finishes up

He probably recognises he needs to start over without Richardson and build back up. Chesterfield is as good a place is any to do that

Personally, all respect to him for taking a job at a lower level rather than seeing himself as the big I am who would not dirty his hands

Appointment confirmed today.

When we won the League 2 Championship was it due to the stirling work that he did up to and including the infamous home game with Crewe or what the players did in the last part of the season? I think that the general concensus is that it was the latter.
As for Jackett, well he was four years wasted and looking at the O's current form (two points from last eight games) I think it's highly likely that his tenure there won't be lasting much longer. You've got to read what their supporters are saying; they're virtually identical to our fans over the two year period after he engineered an abject surrender in the second leg of the play-off s/final against Sunderland up to the point we finally let him go. After all it's Pompey, isn't it?

I liked Cook and would have him back in a heart beat. Passionate, knew his own mind, had no problem telling journos and fans to foxtrot Oscar, demanded an identity from his team and signed a blend of youth and experience to deliver his plan.

Personally,I couldn’t ever understand a word he said.
