Could Cooper be the first manager sacked before a ball is kicked competitively?

You got to give the bloke a chance, he won't get sacked before we start.

[Vacamion]

 

No.

 

Not exactly the way to get the fans all on his side, though, if it does go tits up in the first few league games....

Is this the first 'be careful what you wish for' of the season?

[chapero82]

He won't be sacked until we are 2 games from certain relegation.

[urban.spaceman]

Potter’s available.

No chance as our decision making is glacial, and no, climate change will not expedite things..

He should never have been given a chance in the first place.

With the points deduction we’re looking at Derby’s record low points (11)

 

That performance really is as bad as it gets.

[john ridley]

Or even 37 games from certain  relegation. 

[foxinsocks]

No one is coming here till we know the points deduction.

Buckle up..

Let’s get the positions covered we so desperately need covering  and then judge him after that…

[adejo92]

He'll survive because expectations are so low.

Lets see if Top has learnt anything from last time (IF we're heading towards relegation at Christmas)...

Frank De Boer was sacked by Palace after 5 games. I'm not sure what sort of contract Cooper has though, which might make it very hard to remove him.

 

Usually I would say that people are getting worked up over meaningless pre-season fixtures. But not in this case at all. The best example I can give is this. Last pre-season Liverpool battered us 4-0, with Mads making two good saves to keep the score down. And yet in that game, in the first 20 minutes we looked brilliant, playing out of Liverpool's press and making several opportunities which we failed to score from. At the time I did a show on Beyond the 90 with Neel and told him that despite the result, I was convinced we would win the Championship because to get the team working that well, that quickly, despite the result, was the sign of a top coach.

 

Sadly after this preseason I see a team that is going to struggle all season long. Prior to the Lens game I thought the scorelines might not be that bad, but we would ultimately lose through a lack of attacking threat. But today we got beat by 3, and that scoreline flattered us.

No, knowing this board of directors they bound to give him a couple of seasons at least to try get things right!

[ealingfox]

Get rid and make Vardy player-manager, might as well at this point. If it's going to be a binfire might as well make it a popular shot in the dark experiment for the banter.

[Pliskin]

After we’ve been destroyed by Spurs, probably 6 or 9 - 0……. It might start to feel a bit different. 

[FrankieADZ]

he wont get sacked anytime soon, be very surprised if he lasts the season tho

[Jakemoore]

Can people stop blaming the manager.

 

He’s been in the job a month.
He  inherited a squad which already lacked creativity and then we sold our most creative player because of the total mismanagement of the club by people at the club long before Cooper arrived. 
The club have consistently struggled to recruit at the top end of the field and had to rely upon loaning teenagers in from clubs we used to finish comfortably above.
 

Be honest, you only want Cooper out because he’s ex Forest. Get a grip. Forest literally don’t give a shit about us so stop making a thing out of it.

 

Cooper has proven to be a decent manager but he’s working with at least one hand tied behind his back because of Rudkin etc. If you want to vent, vent at the right people.
