Must say that penna shout/s for Huddersfield yesterday left me convinced Cooper has some sort of influence/favouritism going on when it comes to pressure on referees to make big calls in games
When he was up against us previously in recent times, I hadn't known much about the guy beforehand, but I put it down to fans' bitterness/nonsense that he had a hold on refs in games
... all that aside, the guy is clearly top-class
The job he has done at Forest is nowt short of brilliant, the fact we lost Spence to them and they were clearly superior hence their promotion does leave one feeling irked, but what can yer say .. I am sure no one would complain had he been in charge of us
... ever since the Wilder/Burnley chew on, things just seemed to go downhill fast for us, before that we were in the mix .. the signs were already there that we were sliding out of form and all that sh1te, it was an unfortunate coincidence. All of a sudden, it seemed Cooper's Forest side we a million miles from us.
Ever since I just don't feel convinced CW heart is in it enough to do the job required or what Boro fans are expecting of us next season but dearly hope I am wrong. I was buzzing we'd appointed him and thought the likes of him were out of our reach, progress finally being made behind the scenes, the lot ... now I just get this bad feeling.
The lines CW has come out with since about being committed to the challenge and finishing the job he was brought here for, obviously anyone would eventually have to come out and say so after such a situation ..
Sadly, I still sense a lack of sincerity, I am not sure what I would want him to say or what he's supposed to do. It's just I don't feel his heart is in it, though he makes out it is obviously. Things could go South very fast if we start next season badly as a result.
Should that happen and Forest are rock-bottom in the PL at the same time, I'd be more than happy to welcome Steve Cooper here.
