I can't see Cooper getting the bullet just yet but I'd love him here, not Brenda though.

Cooper doesn't deserve to get the push yet. But I think their owner has very high - and arguably entirely unrealistic - expectations. It sounds like a lot of Forest fans are worried that he'll pull the trigger on Cooper.
 
Originally put in wrong thread.

I am in the “if he goes then so be it” camp.
I keep on saying the same things about him.
His pressing style made a group of average individual players look like a good team.
I think he now has some better individual players but he has abandoned the style that gives players a little bit extra and that made us competitive.
It’s his giving up on his way of playing that I don’t get.
If he can’t get the new players to adapt to his style then I think it is clear that the wrong players were recruited.
All I want is to watch a game and then be able to say, afterwards, win or lose that “I enjoyed that” more often than I say “that was crap”.
 
I’m in Jordan atm as will be attempting to run a 250km race in the desert...I just hope it’s less painful than supporting Saints! Got to think that the board have their options lined up ready to go at this point, and may have feelers out to see if who we want is interested. Was this one game too far? Do you really want to give a new coach Man City away as their first game? It is feeling inevitable now either way but by the time I have internet again next weekend I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s gone.
 
Just seen this on Twitter:

“Seen quite a few stats tonight flying around regarding recent form

Well since Southampton beat Liverpool 1-0 at St Marys in January 2021 they have won 15 out of 67 league matches”

Horrific. Truly horrific

While you're there can you see if you can pick up the ball from ABKs shot today? Save the club a few quid to put in the Ralph replacement fund :emoticon-0148-yes:

Good luck mate!
 
We'll that wasn't the anniversary and birthday joy I was hoping for. I find myself in a dark place along with several who have reached the crossroads. No idea about who the new Messiah will be or how we could attract him (or her).
