Wagner did exactly the same job as Cooper and never got another Premier league gig Palace always sign ex arsenal players or foreigners In essence Cooper is a championship manager Also David Wagner didn't have 150 million to spend on players the first season we got promoted He's not pep guardiola...he's a good championship manager Cooper hasn't been crap at 3 teams since getting a team promoted to the PL, Kaiser Dave has. He will now get the chance to be sh!t Cooper failed miserably at forest...kaiser dave as you say didn't get 150 million to spend in his first season in the Premier league...but still kept us up And kaiser dave may well be in the Premier league next season with Norwich As for Cooper going to Palace...why on earth would they choose him when the likes of Graham Potter are wanting jobs??

If there were no contributions there would be no debate and no forum. What harm does it do? Are you capable of showing any passion at all? Are you still a virgin?

If you're after some news there's plenty of news sites focusing on Town that I can recommend. If everyone took the 'wait and see' attitude on here there'd be no posts!

Why would a manager who has had nothing but success want to come to Huddersfield Town and why would we risk someone who’s never achieved anything? Of course our next man will have failed somewhere previously.

Yeah, you're right. Won the U17 WC with England, performed miracles at Swansea, the first bloke in over 20 years to get Forest promoted. What a failure. Why would Potter never interested in a perennial bottom 6 team 🤷

A driving ban just makes Huddersfield an even more attractive proposition for Heckingbottom, or Heckbum which my son called him when he played for Bradford, than a club further from Barnsley. After all the errmms and told listen! scaffolding and spanish/english no one understands, his press stuff will be a nice change. He talks great, he even sounds like most of us. If we’ve met him, which we have, i can’t believe we were anything other than impressed. I also like Stuart McCall. Everyone fails at Bradford, can’t hold that against him. I think they're supposed to.

Coopers next job will be in the Championship IMO. He did well keeping forest up, with a lot of backing it has to be said, but didnt do so well that I can imagine any PL club giving him their job if it came up.
Dont think its that far fetched that he'd come here provided that Nagle sells his ambition to him and shows him that good backing will be there. But there'd be a lot of bigger clubs than us in this division who'd have him next time they change managers.

Cooper could wait for a prem club, that never comes . There has been a manager in the past who did that and is still waiting a certain mr alan curbs..... The guy's seat in the dugout at Forest has barely gone cold yet. I'm sure a job will become available to him that is more suited than we are. TBH, if Norwich ditch Wagner I could easily see him there.

Rowett all day for me over Heckingbottom, take him until the end of the season if possible then re evaluate then.

I have been told its not Paul Heckingbottom, so considering my recent posts I would be going to your betting apps and lumping on him to be next manager its got to be a sure thing now I have said its not him. And yes I am prepared to get shot down again !!!!! In all honesty I was getting information from someone inside the club a couple of sources, but my main source is now no longer employed by HTAFC (not DM). “Honestly “ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Rowett all day for me over Heckingbottom, take him until the end of the season if possible then re evaluate then. Good shout. Decent record. Would make us hard to beat and add a bit of nastiness to us. His teams were always tough games. Not pretty, and not the long term plan but we've been on the wrong end of some poor tackles that have cost us, and I'd have no issue with settling some scores. Would have been a potentially underwhelming appointment post Colin/pre bore but Dave has really lowered the bar. If it was to be Rowett, maybe we could hire him until the summer, load the offer with bonuses and incentives to keep us up and if the football is good enough then reevaluate in the summer. Didn't he apply for the job previously? Plus he speaks well and makes sense on the box. Ideally we get the right man for a long time but with safety our main objective, a championship experienced manager has to be the priority.

Here’s an idea, why don’t you and Castle Hill Terrier set up a direct message between you both & you can share these made up names with each other and both wank to feeling self important? To be fair kjf4682 is a decent poster and seems to be in the know. How about just being decent? No he isn’t, it’s been proven time and time again, in which he/she deletes it. Nothing about being decent? Just bored of people making stuff up for their own kick.

I'd have no issue with Rowett taking charge. Not 100% sure he'd be my first choice, but we can't gamble on a rookie or someone who's only managed for half a season or something daft like that. Plenty of experience, including at this level, generally done ok at most teams. There's certainly far worse names being thrown about as possible options

Ideally we get the right man for a long time but with safety our main objective, a championship experienced manager has to be the priority. He'd my top choice. Experienced, ambitious, used to working within a tight(ish) budget, sets his teams up well and will get us out of trouble. Four top half seasons with Millwall and two of them they went into the final game with a shot at the play-offs. He did that with pretty average teams and a budget that was in the bottom 6 of the league. Also took Derby into the Championship play-offs.

18 pages of pointless speculative bollocks so far. What drives folk to contribute? I'm happy to wait and see. Well, why don't you stay away from this thread and wait for BBC Football to announce it. I am sure that is the most exciting, thrilling way to do things. I live in hope that folk read my post and think ‘yes, we are spouting bollocks. Perhaps we should just wait and see’ However, I appreciate that I may currently be perceived as being in a minority. Still, every protest starts with one person objecting to the status quo….

Tonight I will watch a game on tv. I might prefer one team to win, but if they don’t - hey ho. That’s how I feel about watching Town these days. Tonight I’ll be at a game, Sutton United v Harrogate Town, leaving in five minutes. I’m looking forward to it, I hope passionately that Sutton win. If it was Town I was going to see tonight that passion would rise tenfold. If I got no enjoyment out of it I wouldn’t go. Why do you even bother?

The original post started with an opinion poll, so it’s fair to assume the following posts will be people stating who they would prefer and why, so I can’t see the problem with people “spouting” their theories

Dont think its that far fetched that he'd come here provided that Nagle sells his ambition to him and shows him that good backing will be there. But there'd be a lot of bigger clubs than us in this division who'd have him next time they change managers. There's merit in your argument but I would ask if you are really convinced that Mr Nagle's ambition stretches this far? I think Mr Nagle is sincere and well intentioned but I don't get any sense that his ambition supports attracting a top notch (irrespective of what people think about Cooper as an individual he has just left a Premier League job) manager. If we did get a "name" it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume they had been attracted by a promise of support in the longer term. For many reasons the next appointment has to excite, enthuse and have the ability to change the narrative at the club. It's easy for me to write that, but far more difficult to fulfil. The Nagle era desperately needs something to get it on track. The next appointment can go a long way to achieving that. It is equally true it could completely derail the entire project. To be fair I expect Mr Nagle is acutely aware of this. It's a pivotal moment potentially in his tenure as our custodian.
