Well I'm glad I've been proved wrong about us staying up. I was adamant we were a going to a few weeks ago. Credit to the players for digging in and getting the results needed over the last 5 or so matches. Credit to the owner for sticking with Cooper, even though he did admit to looking for another manager. But most of all credit to Cooper for juggling 30 odd new players, injury after injury and constant rumours about being replaced. I'll mention our fans as well because they have shown steadfast loyalty to the players and the manager even when things looked bleak.
On a side note. Not sure why the Premier League announce contenders for players and manager of the season before the season ends, though. Because, without coming across as biased, Cooper should be on that manager of the season list for what he has had to contend with. I do know, however, that clubs, mangers and players near the bottom don't usually get noticed by the premier league.

I agree but pep is going to get it for sure?

That's my point exactly Balloons?
"Celebrating like we won the league, quite embarrassing really"
REALLY MATE?!
I screamed "We are staying up! Saying! We are staying up! " At the final whistle!
My son who couldn't care less about football gave me a big hug.
He said "Dad your sweating and shaking? "
My mates who are United and Liverpool fans text me saying
"God help your neighbours Rogie if last year's Play off Final was anything to go by! Well done mate! "
I would have LOVED to have been there last night. incredible scenes after yes, a quite awful season, however those fans never once turned on Cooper, and that's what sets us apart from the rest of the league, my wife thinks I'm "Nuts about that bloody team of yours" and I'm nowhere near "Embarrassed" about it mate, as I said yesterday I never swear on this site, however I'm proud as F@#k this morning.
FTID!

Rogie. ???.
4.) 21 May 2023 09:07:51
No more excited than me Rogie but fist pumping 16th in the league, not really mate ?. There's a lot of work to do in the summer and bags of time to do it this year. In and outs will be fascinating I'm sure ?.
5.) 21 May 2023 09:46:58
Fist pumping is all about the connection with us fans, I love it and why not. No negatives from me, I thought we had gone after Leeds, what a turn around.

Red did you see Everton celebrating their last minute equaliser that keeps them in with a shout of staying up! That's football mate, celebrating the good times! Surely staying up is just as important as promotion last year? The result is the same, premiership footy.
7.) 21 May 2023 12:08:41
Probably more important financially for Marinakas cockney ?.

Well done Cooper. Taking an attacker off for a defender with 20 minutes left at home. I was a big supporter of Cooper but if we don't beat Wolves then sack him after that decision.
1.) 01 Apr 2023 17:18:25
Sooner the better sir Brian ?.
2.) 01 Apr 2023 17:42:23
Agreed Red! ?
Where are the Cooper Fan Boy's this evening? ??.

Oli McBurnie found not guilty of assault. I didn't buy any of it in the first place. The video 'evidence' is inconclusive. Just a fan wanting some compo in my opinion.

Only players allowed on the pitch ,end of .

After the VAR playback it did look dodgy.
3.) 15 Dec 2022 19:48:33
If that’s the case Carlo we would have had a few fines over the last few seasons . plenty of ours wouldn’t have passed for players ?.
4.) 16 Dec 2022 09:19:53
What a waste of tax payer’s money taking the case to court along with thousands of others including Boris Becker, costs all that money, gets 2 1/ 2 years let out after 8 months.
5.) 16 Dec 2022 09:23:46
What a waste of taxpayers money bringing the case to court along with thousands of others, take Boris Becker given 21/ 2 years serves 8 months, effin farce.

It's a "Racket" mate ???.

Personally, I'm quite pleased with the signings so far. Looks like defence is sorted but maybe another full back for good measure, unless Cooper is thinking Ioannou is alright for back-up. Midfield is lacking in the central positions for me. Yates and Colback are ok and combative but could do with some quality on the ball in there. Possibly another striker and a forward. Up to now been impressed with recruitment.
1.) 12 Jul 2022 10:53:15
I'd like to see us go for Maxwell Cornet next. He's a dangerous forward and can cover LWB too. I believe there's a clause in his contract for about £15m. I'd go for him.
I'd be after O'Brien for a midfield spot too, he could play the CM or AM position that Garner used to fill. Forget Toffolo if we can get Cornet.
Then another midfield player, Morgan Gibbs-White would be great but probably too expensive. Surprised we've not been linked with Harry Winks, maybe he'd be too expensive too.
Then we're almost ready to go :)
2.) 12 Jul 2022 11:23:28
Cornet and O'Brian are great calls. Exactly what I'd do as well. Wolves are taking the p1ss with the fee for Gibbs-White.
We do still have Ioannou, Laryea and Colback if there was an injury crisis at Wing-Back.
I think they might go for another player who can play a few forward positions and Striker yet too.
3.) 12 Jul 2022 13:55:04
Cornet £13m release clause
O’Brien £10m.
Offer wolves £20m plus another £10m if we stay up.
If they refuse walk away.
Davis £8m if villa refuse walk away
Maybe other possibilities
Garner loan to buy
Winks £10m
Chamberlain £10m
Che adams £15m
Borja loan
Plenty of quality alternatives to ge after.
4.) 12 Jul 2022 14:22:56
Just read that Cornet's release clause is £17.5m. Well worth it, imo.
I reckon Winks will cost 20m or more too, unfortunately. Also, he'll be on big wages being an England International at Spurs.
Dont fancy Che Adams but Broja would be great.
23 May 2023 07:47:21
Sharey, you say he wasn't going to get sacked but Marinakis after the match on Saturday more or less admitted to looking for another manager but couldn't find one that was available and better than Cooper. So, he would've git sacked if the owner could find another manager.
23 Mar 2023 18:16:23
Henderson will go to a premier league next season. So that rules us out.
21 Mar 2023 07:44:42
Our medical department must be terrible.
18 Mar 2023 12:27:15
It was Ginger. I stand corrected. Apologies.
17 Mar 2023 17:36:18
Full of it.
19 Mar 2024 12:23:51
Absolutely not, Cyclist.
19 Mar 2024 12:22:45
We can only comment and react to what we see on the pitch, Stevie. It doesn't fill many with confidence. It's been the same story in the last 4 matches. Poor finishing and strange choice's by the coach. Terrible at set-pieces, as well, from both an attacking and defensive perspective. We need to change that quickly.
29 May 2023 11:15:50
Successful season in some respects. Survival and a semi final appearance. Losing to the eventual winners.

Never liked her music but she had a great voice. How many idiots/ tin foil wearers on social media are shouting 'c.v. vax' as the reason for her sad death?
25 May 2023 08:16:09
Gibbs-White is effectively a forward. He's not going to get into the squad over the one's already selected. He's not better than Foden, Grealish, Sako or Rashford.
