As for jackett at the time I bet if you looked back you wouldn’t have found many people complaining it looked like we were actually getting an upgrade but then that was before we found out for ourselves how mind numbing his football was ........ and if the egos of the trust were in charge this last year we’d be proper fvcked.
Savs ... the PST vote to sell to the Eisners was in May, before Jackett was appointed. Cook left because of the change of ownership and the Eisners approved the appointment, as confirmed by Catlin when he was announced.
And you're right, his CV with three promotions from this league was perfect for our needs at the time and no-one was complaining. Not sure about him being an upgrade but certainly not a downgrade.
