Says who?
And if it is Cooke and he looks like a house side (if he does), then the deal will fall through naturally, because people won't want to put money in.
So we move on somewhere else.
If Cooke is in shape then fine, but anecdotal evidence and the fact that he has been out of the game for a year suggests he won't be.
So just like DM I hope it's someone else for that reason only. But you seem to think it is Cooke.
Or perhaps you were just playing games.
And is Cooke in shape?
Would you be happy with Cooke?
Still you can carry on throwing one-liners in that don't really contribute to the debate if you like.
After all we will be the ones asked to stump up the dosh, and I think that this gives us a reason to have a view and speculate on our preferences.
So if you are implying that we are somehow prejudicing and putting at risk the possible outcome, that would be a shame.
