Quote ="The Avenger"I mentioned Cooke because I know a number of players át both Doncaster and Leigh who think he’s the best coach they’ve ever worked with and some of them have worked with some highly regarded coaches. The biggest ćompliments are that he is genuinely invested in the players, really wants to help them and [uhas the communication and man management skills to do so[/u.'"
That is good to hear and quite contrary to the view I formed of him when he was with us.
Whilst playing at Wakey I remember him being very vocal on the field. I remember one instance where he was having a go at Luke George for his positional play. What Cooke said to him may or may not have been very smart, however the tone and the words he used to deliver it didn't inspire me, if I'd been Luke George at the time I'd probably felt like belting him.
