UTC Legend
I really hope he’s recognised in some way for all that he’s done for the club.Steve Cook, absolute AFCB legend. Will be very sad to see him go.

Shame if cookie leaves before end of season. Long way to go and injuries always likely given the hectic schedule. Think he is above meps and Ibsen Rossi if fully fit
Wow, didn’t see that coming. Was convinced he was only left home from the pre season tour due to a legitimate injury.Probably what we all expected to be the case but according to Kris Temple, Steve Cook has been told he can leave the club.
I understand the fresh broom approach but I'm a little uncomfortable about how some of the departures of players who will be AFCB legends has been handled. And that goes back to the start of last season, I'm not referring only to this.
Meanwhile, I'll be sad to see SC go. He's helped create AFCB memories I never thought I would get. I hope he finds a good new home.
Thread merge coming in 3.... 2.... 1....
Didn’t Parker confirm he’d kept the club captaincy? Clearly that decision was made whilst knowing he wasn’t in the first team plans, and I’d imagine it was done out of respect for what he’s given the club.Not a lot of class shown.
Clearly not what SP thinks, given he's not even on the bench. Thought Kelly had a good game today, not sure what your issue with him is. Not like cook hasn't got a mistake in him.Think he’s a better defender than Kelly tbh so not sure why he isn’t in the team. Far from perfect, but I’d feel more comfortable with him next to Cahill.
True CherryBare thought Kelly was excellent today and under Cahill is becoming a leaderClearly not what SP thinks, given he's not even on the bench. Thought Kelly had a good game today, not sure what your issue with him is. Not like cook hasn't got a mistake in him.
What did you think of your favourite team, Fulham performance today? Frightening squad they have
not any more

Not too surprising given Cahill's performances since he came in. Gutted for Cookie that'll end like this though, especially as his sending off was the catalyst for ending our promotion hopes last season.
That said we must look forward and not be too sentimental at times with decision making if its felt him going helps the club progress
Agree with this.

Yes. Your opinion is right and his is wrong. Oh hang on a minute, the nature of opinions means that cannot be the case! Imo Cook and Kelly are both good championship defenders who are both prone to a gaffe/lapse in concentration. Imo cook’s lapses are less frequent than Kelly’s and he is positionally better. Just an opinion.You need to re-learn football if you think that.

no one is bigger than the club. he had a great career here. sometimes its time to move on.
A bit crass, Cookie was unassuming and lead by example on the pitch. I've not seen or heard any evidence of him throwing his weight around.
