Watched the game back this morning and realised that throughout the game the camera must have panned to Cooper about 20 times.
Just concerned that should come with a warning pre watershed, the blokes like a unfinished waxwork.
It is but I had to laugh when my missus, who has no clue who he is, glimpsed at the telly last night and blurted out ‘Christ, who’s that? He’s got a face only a mother could love’. We’ve all had the piss taken out of us over the years over looks, hairstyles, clothes etc, it happens.
Why do they go to him so much anyway? Usually just paced around looking confused.
Hard to like him, Swansea manager and some of his comments when I've heard him speak but not much to do with how he looks.
If anyone should be wearing a Mask 😷 it's got to be him.............
Should be showing an example to the Gypos
You need to get out more, over time on this board alone, Bale, Morrison, Pack have been ridiculed for their top knots, Brown was likened to a 90s magician, Vincent Tan’s trousers had a weekly piss take slot, Scott Murray was regularly battered, Wayne Rooney’s good looks have been questioned now and again. It happens, people in the spotlight have always had this cross to bear, always.
In that case it’d be worse abuse wouldn’t it? Ridiculing someone for something they personally choose rather than something they can’t do bugger all about. I’m saying abuse, but is it? Some folk make or made a living out of such things, General Tom Thumb, Schnozzle Durante, Ginger Rogers, Two Ton Tessie O’Shea etc. I’ve got mates with big ears called ‘Flapper’, bulgie eyes we call Popeye, I’ve answered to the name Donkey Dick for years now.........as a piss take
For what it's worth, i do understand where you're coming from. It's a working class thing, factories, building sites, sports teams, the boozer, even within the family. I get and give heaps in work, sometimes on the end of a battering. The working classes have always been good at self depreciation and taking shit, they've had to be. It's a cultural thing. In the case of Cooper though, it's not done in a way that workmates and friends do it, it's probably not meant as a joke, although i don't think that you mean it in a nasty way.
Yes ... but come on ... have you actually seen Cooper ?
Really its all about the fact that he is Swansea manager of course. Its all about context. If I saw someone who looked like him in the street (but wasn't him), of course I wouldn't say anything or talk about him to other people.
It's possible he has ptosis. Would a medical condition stop the piss taking or is that okay? Just wondering, like, I haven't been out much.
