Re: Steve Cooper sacked

He will replace Woy at Palace

If he's a 'fit' for lower table London club, how about Chelsea?

Their three saving graces are Luton, Burnley & Sheffield United.

This.

Be interesting to see how Wilder does at Sheffield United though. I fancy him to pick up more points, just not enough.

If I were Forest, I would've stuck with Cooper. I'm assuming he's 'last the dressing room' (adage speak that players are snivelling little cuunts throwing the manager under the bus)? The Forest owner is trigger happy mind.

Wouldn’t do worse than having him down here.. Very good and underrated Mananger.

Re: Steve Cooper sacked

All aboard the Cooper Express, the Bulut Train has been sidelined!

I'd have him here in a heartbeat. He'd be a very good long term appointment.

His stock is much higher than a struggling Championship club.

I'd imagine Cooper will sit tight for the remainder of the season and see what he gets offered in the summer?

Could be plenty of managerial change in the Premier League and the only Championship clubs he'd consider are possibly Leeds, Leicester perhaps Sunderland?

Leicester will be promoted so I don't see any managerial change there.

I seem to remember that Moyes is leaving West Ham at the end of the season.

Maybe they bring him in now as part of a hand over process.

My grandaughter's partner is a Forest fan and is a big supporter of Steve Cooper, but even he felt that his time was up at Forest. He doesn't believe that Cooper lost the dressing room, in fact Forest have mostly played well in recent games, just not well enough. The one criticism coming through here, the same one as I heard at Swansea, is that he is too defensive in the way he sets up his teams.

Having said all of that, I'd still love him instead of Rob Page.

Re: Steve Cooper sacked

I wonder if Forest signing twenty players a summer (an exaggeration, but not too much of one) was driven by Cooper, Director of Footballer (if there is one) or the owner?

Paul, Steve Cooper had little, or no, say in recruitment. This was borne out by the fact, that the whole recruitment team were sacked. The word is that the owner told them I've got X to spend and instead of buying quality players, for the positions that were required, they splashed it on players, regardless of where they'd fit in the team.

Re: Steve Cooper sacked

Cooper would be a really good appointment for the Welsh F.A.

And they could research some of those English youngsters he used to manage to find Welsh connections.

I'd have his father Keith over Rob Page.

Absolutely no chance Steve Cooper coaches Wales at this moment and not in the next 10 years.

Re: Steve Cooper sacked

I think we need to replace Bulut, i don't rate him. I've always had reservations

Re: Steve Cooper sacked

Forest appointed Nuno already.

Re: Steve Cooper sacked

Odd appointment
