Cook needed to step up and get a goal, especially now Danny Rose might be out. Annoyed he didn’t want it.
Why are you annoyed that an experienced striker gave a youth player a chance to grab his first league goal and his second in as many games?
We know cook needs a goal, but he is getting in good positions and it'll come soon.
Mal offered the ball to Cook who refused. Mal then gave it to Knowles who took it on, and fair play to him. I’m not annoyed Knowles scored obviously, I’m annoyed that Cook didn’t want to step up first. He’s missed 3 sitters and a penalty in his time here so far, we need him to start scoring alongside Maynard, and as such, today (under no pressure as we’d already wrapped the game up) he should’ve stepped up and got his first goal to kick on the rest of his season!

The straight red was correct, the 2nd yellow for me a bit harsh, a word would have done. The penalty was a truly horrific decision. We definitely got the right side of the ref today, he was truly terrible.

For me, this squad should be up there in the league and we should be seeing attacking performances like that on the regular. The fact that we battered a team, with what was Dempster full throttle performance makes me think why haven't we done that to the other poor sides that we've play?

I don't know Chris so can't answer for him, but as a vocal 'dempster out' campaigner to date I thought I'd step in.
The thing is Spiro, is that yesterdays kind of performance and result shouldn't be 'once in a blue moon' with this squad.
The fact that we haven't provided those kind of levels yet this season, having played Morecambe, Orient, Stevenage, and Scunthorpe still adds questions over the manager. Why are we still trying out ideas. Turns out it was a good idea to change shape. We just need wins consistently now and that's Dempsters job to work out how to do that.
For me, this squad should be up there in the league and we should be seeing attacking performances like that on the regular. The fact that we battered a team, with what was Dempster full throttle performance makes me think why haven't we done that to the other poor sides that we've play?
I know we might not be able to smash every team 6-1, but it'd be great to watch if we tried to.
As stated, I do think this squad can and should be challenging, and yesterday has proved to me that that belief is correct, so it's up to Dempster to deliver now. I hope he makes me look a fool come May, I really do.
Onwards and upwards to 'Ooh-aargh FGR'

Thought it quite prophetic what Maynard said about enjoying yesterday as opposed to the previous 13 games.
Well done everyone including JD

I’d say a truly great bloke.
