Steve Cooper leaving Swansea - Confirmed

Re: Steve Cooper - Leaving Swansea

From forty odd miles away, it seems the jacks fans never really took to him - wonder if it had anything to do with his connections with Cardiff?

No they just have a deluded and toxic fan base.

Gylfi as player manager

Do they have a women’s team down west?

It’s a shambolic way to run a club, when the season is almost upon us.
The players they’ve signed in the close season are going to be feeling just a bit demotivated after this!

Re: Steve Cooper - Leaving Swansea

pretty unfortunate timing for the swans though

Re: Steve Cooper - Leaving Swansea

What do the Jacks get by mutually agreeing to this? If he's under contract surely they can keep him?

As ever, football is big business now and keeps people in jobs. Pretty short-sighted to wish relegation on anyone especially a fellow Welsh team.

Keith has always been a bluebird and Steve used to come and watch city with his dad.

To deny this when he got the jacks job was ridiculous.

I hope they go down.

Sadly they won't as they have a pretty good record at choosing managers.

They do indeed have a good record when it comes to recruiting managers.
That trend has to end some time, surely?

Well someone has to be relegated so someone can be promoted. Not that they will be in any trouble anyway, they always land on their amphibious looking feet manager wise.

Re: Steve Cooper - Leaving Swansea

I don't think there's any official announcement yet?

But he has taken them to a Play Off semi and a PO Final in his two seasons. And yet the fans down there don't seem to like him, but judging by comments on their PlanetSwans message board they wouldn't ber happy with pep Guardiola!
As someone above says his stock is high so maybe he has something lined up?

As an employer, if you have an employee who doesn't want to be there it's best to let them go. They lose out on compensation, but no point having a manager who isn't fully committed. He certainly has proved he has the talent to spot good young players to bring in on loan and seems well connected in that area.

I'm sure something will be announced soon. Then I can start liking him again, as he is from Pontypridd and used to support Cardiff, just like his dad, who was a youth player at City in the 1960s.

This is a bit if a myth. Theyve made some poor choices as well. They go through managers pretty quickly.

Bradley , Clement , Guidolin , Carvahal , Monk.

From near useless to bang average there.
