I think there is still a chance Cooper isn't here Friday, These Briefs this morning are obviously coming from the same person, TalkSport maybe jumped the gun with Cooper getting more time
Just like they did when they said he had been sacked
There's a video on twitter where he says he will be ready for Friday night, I'll try find it. His body language clearly suggests he knows other wise

I saw that the another night and thought he looked defeated and words about being here Friday were just him trying to be positive but knowing he’s probably gone. also hardly gonna say I won’t be here.

Lets get it over with then. No point hanging on like this. Feels like it's going to happen.

If it does happen then i support forest but Oliver Glasner seems like a sideways step from coops and i don't expect to see any change in the way we play judging on the information that is out there and watching clips of his past teams. Team movement, passing patterns and the low block are just the same and would mean we move back to 5 players at the back and hope for a counter. Then you also have to deal with the fact he is one of those managers who has a habit of disrespecting players and having angry outbursts in interviews which upsets the harmony of the clubs he has been at.
For me this is a risky appointment if it was to come to pass.

There is no guarantee we are going to see an improvement with another manager. Up until this point Cooper has been a massively succesful appointment. Promotion from being detached at the bottom of the championship and keeping us up last season when we were the bookies favourites to go down. Some will say he has spent so much we should be doing better but everybody knows our squad needed more investment than any other in the division to make it competitive. To bring all those players and keep us up was an achievement. Here we are a few months later after a poor run but still five points out of the relegation places and people on here are impatient for him to be sacked. I don’t think that is the view of most supporters who believe he has earnt some patience. This team hasn’t gelled yet but I thought there were some positive signs on saturday that it could be.

Basically Marinakis has 2 choices and he has to pick 1 of them.
Choice 1. Release a statement backing Cooper come what may until the end of the season. Any players who don’t like it and don’t want to be here leave in January.
Choice 2. Go for a new manager who may or may not get more out of the current squad and may or may not integrate them better.
What is totally unacceptable is choice 3:
Do nothing and lurch from game to game, win or perform well Cooper stays, lose or play badly Cooper back under pressure.
That is bonkers and unsustainable.

I absolutely get it this time around. My heart is saying absolutely not but head is starting to say twist if we have an alternative of good quality and by that I mean proven to some extent. I think Marinakis has been remarkably loyal to Steve. I also happen to know Kyriakos Dourekas has been in coopers corner this time and saved him on Wednesday night.

The big problem with Choice 1 is that we go on to lose against Tottenham and Bournemouth and then Marinakis is stuck in a massive hole.

The same could be said for choice 2 though

I asked a really good question yesterday but not one single person answered it.
So I will ask it again and there is no agenda behind it it's just a question.
So, are fans who are backing Cooper and constantly chanting his name during matches going to take responsibility if Steve gets us relegated?

No. They will just say... Steve is the right man to take us back up straight away. But won't understand the millions we have just lost out on.. as long as coops is here they don't care.. it's got that bad iv actually seen a bloke on twitter buy an expensive cheese hamper and sent it to cooper because he deserves it
