@Muzzy_no7 unleash the list.

Fair enough, but if people truly believed it then a KP out thread would equally as hot, no? Seems to me people still believe we are the same club as we were at the height of our success, whereas in reality we have clearly been undone by mismanagement at many levels.

Cooper is the symptom, not the cause of our downfall as it is a far longer running decline, so not sure how pointing to the current incumbent helps.

Are you suggesting no Nation would fancy a sneaky punt at geoengineering to head off global warming?

It is hard to argue we are gambling when we sit where we sit, which is you would assume above the pre-season expectations, but I do agree that the situation has changed massively and I strongly doubt we would have appointed Cooper had we had no potential points deduction, so therefore the only question the board would need to answer is both simple and unknowable. Would changing manager now likely provide a greater point return? Any other reasons remain more intangible or personal opinion based and as long as the togetherness in the squad and the rate of gaining points is acceptable and I just cannot see any triggers being pulled as there is no reasonable cause to do so because Current trajectory, ignoring potential imminent downturn, is acceptable Why incur further costs of more staff churn? However in terms of reasons for a change There is seemingly a statistical bomb waiting to go off and a return to a statistical norm would see us drop points against any simple future projection based on past results this season Related to the point above, the points gathered thus far have been against low quality teams, and this is going to change significantly seen Personal takes The switch away from Enzo's rigorous tactical approach to Cooper's chaos is exceptionally jarring and concerning from a tactical capability perspective Unsure if Cooper is slow of thought or just very slowly methodical in terms of team selection

Anyone remember Harlequin? A failed competitor to Roses and Quality Street

As sure as the Sun sets, the Sun rises and @Happy Fox declares the next game to be the last saloon.

allegedly, or is that just migrants....

Last time around for Donald Elon getting the love to step up next time

what a shit show

Jose and Top? Cannot imagine a less likely partnership. Well maybe Gattuso….

Fair enough, thought this was the idea of the KDH sale, but guess we shall see!

To be fair, the Cooper In / Shrinking Violet thread is much younger and more insecure.

Stop reading it and stick to your echo room? On a less sarky note, I like the balance personally.

“Special purity” - report to the office Peter

Christ, what they did to Flint and the wider area was genuinely shocking, laissez-faire capitalism at its absolute worst.

I realise this, but pretty sure they also stated we may get another this year which seems highly unlikely.

Isn’t this the same Football Insider that says we are about to get yet another ffp sanction?

He has proper rustled some knickers on the Ipswich forum.

Doubt the long term was in the thinking when Cooper was given the job. Will the club recognise this if he keeps us up and just give him a new contract anyway if he does? Depends if Potter is still unemployed.

Not sure anybody is dismissing the fact that the stats do not make encouraging reading and it is undeniable that using statistics dictates we should be either doing worse, or are due a tumble. Though at the same time, either by some witchcraft or some unconsidered metric, we are doing ok. But why can’t both things be true? Stats say it’s poo, reality says bite me.

So you are conveniently Ignoring what should have been a red card on Facundo (Var kept the referee’s on field decision) Not accepting the second yellow for Phillips (Var again kept the on field referee’s decision) Not accepting the referee’s decision that the Fatawu ‘shoulder’ was not a foul (Again, var kept the referee’s on field decision) Var eh?

Can I ask why? Don’t think he is a good manager, but tough to deny we are not doing ‘just about ok’

Like a more verbose version of the Out thread then?

Zen yet relatable
