We were second best in the playoff semi and Sheffield Utd were the better team over two legs and certainly at the City Ground. The playoff final was won by an own goal and two good penalty shouts that should have been given. The first Premier league season the football was generally dire and one away win all season gives testament to it. Towards the end of the season Marinakis gave Coops an ultimatum of sorts saying that immediate  improvement was required. It didn't improve that much and we were all biting our nails right until the penultimate game. This season started off moderately better than where it left off but very soon became a mirror image of the end of last season without the home performance, despite millions spent during the summer. Thank you Steve but without the Rose tinted specs the right decision has been made. I think you have said your self that "whatever the right decision is for Nottingham Forest is the right decision for me"

What a crock of shit.

Agree with that.  The Cooper lovers will hate what you wrote.......but that is more to do with clinging on to some success as opposed to appreciating the game of football.

Yes must agree that taking a team from the bottom of the championship with one point from seven games to immediate promotion, survival in the premier league before the end of the following season, and five points off the relegation places the next season, just over two years after being appointed, is bang average. Some supporters have got such a sense of entitlement. Let’s see if we get many managers coming through the door who match what Cooper has achieved. Personally I doubt it.

Yep. He's really been great for us. Hes given us an incredibly enjoyable few years and I feel for the guy as he seems a genuinely decent person. I wish him well. But he a football coach and football coaches get sacked every couple of years. Its the game.
