Thoughts On The Next Nottingham Forest Manager

[wassy04]

Cooper has done amazing to get us this far, especially with all the injuries. But he has also been one of the reasons why we have dropped silly points at times.
I'm a massive fan of Cooper and he will be remembered forever for getting out of the Championship. I'll be very happy if he stays, but I can also understand if he goes. If he does then I will be supporting the new manager, whether I agree or disagree that he is the right person (or better than Cooper).

I agree up until the bit about understanding if he goes. If Cooper is forced out after keeping us up, I and I believe the majority of fans will be very angry. I also think we'd be a laughing stock to other teams. 

Whoever the new manager is, unless he has instant success the chants for Cooper will be there straight away.

I get that, but won't be joining in. I'm sure that if Marinakis does decide to change manager then it will be carefully considered. He has shown enormous restraint this season.
I don't care if the media or other fans think we are a laughing stock. So many other clubs are. All season people have been laughing at us for the amount of signings we have made!

Yeah I mean it's more just another reason not to do it, just feels like we've got such a good feeling around the ground at the moment. Atmosphere vs Brighton was surely the best it's ever been. I just don't understand why you'd want to give up that advantage and create likely divisions within the fanbase including inevitable anger towards the owners (in the event we stayed up)

I do agree that the end of the season is the correct time to change manager if you are going to do it. Best options available of new managers and allows any new manager to do pre-season and make any changes required early.

The good feeling around ground is very valid. It has been incredible at the City Ground (and the few away games I've been able to get tickets for).
The fans also loved Lamouchi, until they didn't. But we never got behind Houghton.

I do think Mr Marinakis will know this and it will be considered when Cooper is replaced (maybe a long time away). I was lucky enough to be in the Directors box recently, and Miltiadis was there and he definitely does care.

Its going to be interesting that's for sure, and above all I hope the good feeling at the City Ground continues, whatever league we are in and whoever is the manager. Hopefully Cooper in the PL.

Sabri was popular but this is just incomparable. Cooper is as popular as Klopp, Pep etc. It's an asset which we should be utilising, we're lucky.

I wonder whether Leeds fans would prefer they never sacked Bielsa? Pretty interesting comparison as they have had similar impacts on the club and fanbase. The difference being that Bielsa was at a different stage in his career and was very much stuck in his ways to his own detriment. Cooper hopefully still has time to change that (and I suspect if he leaves another team will benefit)
