Cooper is, apparently, favourite to replace Hodgson.

Hope it’s not Heckingbottom, he’s doing a fine job.

Cooper will be sacked only because the owner really can't kill him and get away with it 8-)

Sky reporting Cooper needs a positive result against Wolves to save his job.

Nothing like that sort of pressure is there?

After their support at Fulham the Forest fans definitely disagree with the Forest owner on this one.

Nobody wants the sack but at the higher level like him at least he’ll be on a good salary and payout if he is fired. Also he’s someone I think that would get another good club and fairly quickly.

Whilst being the ugliest geezer, Mr Cooper rescued his club, Nottingham Forest from Championship relegation issues to promotion in the same season. Then had bucket loads of new players to sort and blend into a team. They survived after an awful start.

Now they are in their correct place. The Prem list of safe clubs gets longer. He deserves to keep his job. That is also what the fans think.

I thought this was going to be a thread about "Who is our next manager?".

The Burnley job must be the safest in the PL. Can’t see any other club retaining a manager with our record. Crystal Palace were at the other end of the spectrum giving Frank De Boer just 4 league games which was ridiculous.
