How depressing it would be if we got gormless looking Cooper as manager.

Thankfully, it will never happen.

We're not in the business of signing distinctly average managers with mediocre records and uninspiring football.
Agreed. We won’t be getting Potter either. I doubt either are on the shortlist. Not sure why so many are talking about the two of them all the time.

Realistically, who's available and likely to join us, that isn't a downgrade on De Zerbi?

Whoever we go for, let's not forget that Leicester fans were hugely underwhelmed by Claudio Ranieri's appointment.
That's the spirit. We are going to win the league with Cooper! 😁

Graham Potter is a superior manager to RDZ, and always has been.

He set the foundations for RDZs brilliant finish. But in RDZs second season it became abundantly clear that it was Potters foundation which was more pivotal to our success.

Yep, and we all laughed at Wolves when they hired Gary O'Neil. Whoever we go for it is ALWAYS a gamble so we might as well just get behind whoever the club choose.

Gallardo is my hope, and not just because I backed him at 40/1.

Cooper would be an ok manger and would good for our young players, however given his availability all taking to long to appoint which makes you feel there is someone else in the wings they are waiting to appoint

Depends. If we want the slight extra security that comes with a British manager, these two are among the ten or so realistic candidates. If we want to look abroad again, I can think of at least 20 managers that doesn't look too shabby on paper.

Except when they played each other, Roberto pulled Potty’s pants down and gave him a good spanking.

40/1, that's the same price as Kieran Mckenna.

John Terry and Steve Bruce are 33/1

100% behind the Steve Cooper campaign.

Great manager, interviews really well, always liked him and got Forest playing good attacking football with strong home form in the Championship, just like Hughton did for us.

Please - not Potter. Emotionally speaking, I still can’t get over his departure. I’d prefer relegation to him returning. 😡
Edited for you.

Popped in on this thread to learn a bit about Steve Cooper. Pretty pointless so far. Any chance of getting back to the topic?!
So, regardless of whether you think RDZ, Mullery, Potter, Steve Gritt or Brian Clough was our greatest ever manager, could Steve Cooper do a job??
I liked Mike Bamber :lol:

It was a special occasion. Probably the best Amex atmosphere of the season. Managerial ability had very little to do with the result, if anything at all.
Are you saying a squad full of internationals some of which are PL & CL winners were scared of little old Brightons ferocious fans. It was a great atmosphere but please no more excuses he got battered and didn’t have a clue how to change it.

Yes, that is my hope. Gallardo as an example, would be a great manger for our South American contingent.

Right, this argument has won me over, time to get Rob Edwards in
