It's football for him. Obviously not in Brucey's plans. Thought he did well at the back end of last season.
He's 21 and going out to a League Two club. Maybe it's time we accepted he's never going to be good enough.
Good piece in the HDM about this. http://www.thisishullandeastriding....help-careers/story-17208792-detail/story.html This been the crucial point "The diminished standards at reserve level though make it an increasingly difficult stage for a rookie to convince manager Steve Bruce of their talents. So Cooper was a bloody idiot not to go out and get first team football.
He didn't look out of place in the Premier League or the Championship, the only reason he's not involved for us is because Stevie replaced him with his son. The loan has now been confirmed. Devitt is also going out on loan to Rotherham.
If that was true teams would have been clamouring for his signature. He only played once in the prem didnt he?
It was a one loan in Portsmouth, I can see why it didn't appeal all that much, three or four games at best and month living out of a suitcase, all when you know you've been replaced by the gaffers son and will almost certainly be released at the end of the season. He was obviously willing to take a loan if it was nearer or was long enough for him to mark an impact.
Who has done brilliantly. I think Coops is the only player we have seen publicly slated by Bruce so it's fair to say he wont figure again. Bit of a shame but hey-ho.
Fat boy Evans on the signing of Devitt... http://audioboo.fm/boos/1035936 It's only a one month loan. Edit - It turns out Cooper's loan is only a month too.
Chester and AB have done brilliantly but dont we play 3 at the back? Macca has been average at best and i could see why cooper thought he could have that spot. Hopefully this loan spell is going to sharpen him up further and maybe show SB what an asset he can be
No. He was doomed when Alex did'nt have a club interested in him so his dad sorted him out with 6 grand a week for 2 years. Good luck Coops, hope their fans think more about you than your home town fans. What a bunch of complete ****s you lot are.
Anyway, who has been slagging off Coops? I don't think anyone said anything negative about him and certainly nothing to warrant '****s'.
