when did you know that Steve Cooper was going to be a good manager for forest

[Alf-engelos Mindminackers]

Partly when the top brass appointed Murphy. We suddenly saw a level of quality and professionalism which we'd not had at the club in years, and his approach to everything was bang on the cock. Appointing Cooper was just part of that.

But watching Swansea fans talking Cooper down in a desperate attempt to hide their butthurt backed that up, and was the real watershed moment for me. What they were saying simply didn't stack up, and...like Derby's "fight till the end" sense of denial...folk only do that when they are trying to hide the obvious from themselves.

When Swansea destroyed us in the cup I said to my sons 'that Cooper bloke might be funny looking but he's a hell of a manager and will be in the PL very soon.'
So when we sacked Hughton and were linked with Cooper I honestly thought he was too good for us.

When they asked Chairman Mao what he thought of the French Revolution, he said it's too early to say.

But then Mao was a prat.

Glad you lot had good birthdays...

The only time we have ever played a competitive match on my birthday - we lost 4-1 to Stoke and bottled a 6 goal swing against Steve Cooper's Swansea

Barnsley away with how attacking we were

Just had a look back at the BBC article from when Hughton was sacked and some of the comments are wonderful.

Honestly like reading DCFC fans for accuracy.

That comment about us needing to look at Leicester to see how to run a club properly has aged like milk.

Trust the dozy sheepshagger to top all those comments by telling us all Lester are the model to follow. hello

As soon as we got to Wembley in my opinion. He got us through a psychological barrier where countless had failed before. I believed even if we’d lost at Wembley that I wanted him to stay to be given an entire season.

love at first sight really, he went straight to business (I enjoyed his first interview). Had to get our boys right and oh man did he ever.

I can't put an exact timescale on it. All I know is that I'll love him forever.
