Very committed but simply not a League One midfielder.
Discuss.

Not bad for a youngster learning his trade under tough circumstances. Can't do it all by himself though. Been carrying the midfield with Migz and Whalley ineffective. You're right when you say he is not League 1 - more likely to go up than down though.

Not talented in the way that some of our recent midfielders have been (Howard & Igoe) but ten times more committed.
Can use the ball and win it, which is fine by me.
As santini says, he's a youngster who has been thrown into the deep end in difficult times at Swindon.

puts in his best performance every week but looks poor in a poor team around him. I think he can improve though and does look like an okay player when he plays well.

I think Pook is a good player, he works hard and puts the effort in. He isnt the most technically gifted, but I'd rather have a work horse than a nancy boy (ala Fat Bastard Howard).
He is probably our best midfielder thus far this season, and I do think when he leaves at the end of the season it will be to someone better and in a higher division than us.
However, he is already known for being out on the town alot which doesnt do anyones career much good.

Pook just isnt at the current time good enough to play for Swindon, he runs alot but doesnt really do much at least with a Brian Howard he could produce a bit of magic to score or create a goal

I'm not questioning what people are saying, but maybe the 'players out on the town' stories we hear are exaggerated a lot of the time?
He is a decent player under our current circumstances, but can't see him being any better than League 1 in the near future. But we can afford him, he works his backside off, and he loves STFC. What more can you ask for when you are bottom fo the league?
