[tweet]1525035214816280578[/tweet] Fair play to Rob Staton for sticking to his guns on it.  Always liked Cook, ever since he made a point of joining in with the minutes applause for Futch but he doesn't come across well here at all...

He repeated time after time that he was only prepared to answer questions on the Woking game, yet the interviewer kept wanting to ask other questions. PC gave him his chance but the interviewer was too persistent.

His managerial record is generally very good and I honestly expected him to take Chesterfield up this season. He still might of course, but they look the least likely of those in the play-offs to go all the way as things stand. Evidently the injury to Kabongo Tshimanga hasn't helped, but he ripped up the James Rowe playbook and tried to implement his own ideas, to no great avail. He's got it horribly, horribly wrong, and he knows it in that interview. A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

He missed training last week to go to Villareal - Liverpool and this is the first (i think) pre-match interview hes done, previously hes made the players do it

They’re very divided about him, guess he a very divisive character

I don't think Rob Staton does a lot wrong. The day managers pick the questions journalists can ask is the day sports journalism dies in my eyes. As others have said, Cook is a well respected manager. Had Chesterfield been where they are now when he took over, I wouldn't have been surprised to see him turn them around. But walking into a winning dressing room with a winning formula and trying to implement your own ethos from there is a very tricky prospect. It would not surprise me in the slightest if they weren't in the play-offs come FT on Sunday. In fact, I'm expecting that. Codhead, socialist, recovered addict.
