It's the same people appointing now, that appointed Darren Moore. And we were appointing from a position of strength at the time. There are some exciting looking appointments but it's difficult to predict how well they'll do here. Look at Jos Lukuhay's CV prior to him getting the job at Massive. Looked a great appointment at the time. I can understand the rationale behind the opening sentence. This time things are a little bit different. In what way different? When we appointed Moore we weren't definitely locked in a relegation battle ie we had many more games left. Or do you mean different in the mindset of finding the right man?

We were speaking to SC whilst DM was here and there is interest. The rivalry is heating up! Will castlehill be wrong yet again and desertstorm prevail victorious? I know who I'd be backing...

dont want him at all, feels like Darren Moore all over again, zero excitment in that appointment. You would not have said that before his spell at Swansea. It's a funny old game, isn't it?! Duff was genuinely hot property little over six months ago. One poor career choice later and he's getting lumped in with Darren Moore

It’d be hard to overstate how much of a boost bringing Cooper in would give to the fans and the players. It would be a massive step change from the unambitious way the club has been run post-Prem relegation.

I have consistantly said it wont be Steve Cooper from the start at no point did I say dont rule him out that was "Desertstorm" I was told we spoke to Steve Cooper early in the process to be told he was not interested in the job, now unless something has dramaticaly changed I still believe this to be correct. However I for one would say if we get him, I am not sure we could have appointed anyone better and he would be the outstanding candidate I just dont believe its realistic and or an option dissapointingly. just to add I would be delighted to be wrong on this occasion........ "Welcome Steve Cooper!!! please can we do welcome photos in the dark for this one and Audio only press conferences !!!" On this occasion. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I think someone else has already said it but bringing Cooper in would seriously improve the impending season ticket sales.

It was that twat Jon Moss!

One poor career choice later and he's getting lumped in with Darren Moore One poor career choice and loss of his assistant... I don't know how much of his success was down to Paterson, or whether he can find someone who offers as much or more.

I’m thinking mr Cartwright has less free rein to make the decision and it’s much more a group effort this time round.

This could do be plastered all over twitter and everywhere and anywhere in between in order to maybe give the powers that be the nudge to get most likely a tough sell over the line

Can you imagine the different between playing for a side coached by Darren Moore to one with Cooper. Like ditching your banged up Larda for a Ferrari.

I'd be amazed if there was a single town fan that would be unhappy with Cooper. Yes he's not the best looker and likes a moan about referees but his coaching ability is on another planet to Moore and Fotheringham.
When you consider how much it has cost us to hire and fire, they should be thinking long term and offering him the salary required to convince him to sign

There was a quote on the highlights from Saturday that Town and Leeds are the only Championship teams who haven't lost from a winning position in the league yet this season. (although we did score first in the loss to Cardiff!)Really? The 0-4 game? An invisible goal was it? Yes, really. Matty Pearson scored after just 2minutes.

You also have to promise him the transfers funds he wants would be available too. If we pull Cooper off it would be astonishing, can't see any chance he'd take it. Edit - just realised I said 'pull Cooper off'. Sorry.

Well - you can at least be certain none of his success prior to last season was anything to do with Paterson

I think maybe he’s suggesting other people are driving it.and the one that was maybe driving the Moore hire is now more or less playing a lesser role.

He hasn’t been offered the palace job, it was hearsay. Was just going to say this he’s in the bookies running but according to Nixon(I know) he hasn’t actually been offered the job I posted this yesterday, it was from the BBC Sport gossip column. Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish strongly contemplated dismissing Roy Hodgson after Saturday's loss to Brighton but is struggling to find a replacement willing to take over at this stage of the season. (Guardian)

Would that be a former centre half who has played under him by any chance? Nope, he did score vs Man City, if that’s any indicator 😉 How is Stank ? His boss, atm, has been mentioned too

When you consider how much it has cost us to hire and fire, they should be thinking long term and offering him the salary required to convince him to sign I would certainly not be unhappy with steve cooper he would be a bit of a coup for a club of our size in our current predicament. He wasn't universally popular at swansea though before he left for forest and it is interesting that we will judge duff on using the opinions of swansea fans but not cooper. www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/swanseacity/news/55143/when-steve-cooper-wasn%E2%80%99t-flavour-of-the-month-at-swansea-city-short-memory-jogger-!

To surmise: most Town fans would be in favour of Cooper, but some would struggle to see past his inability to cover his teeth with his own lips - no matter how successful he may turn out to be.
Sounds like perfect Town fan logic. Let’s get style guru Gareth Ainsworth instead. The football will be shit but we’ll sell a few calendars to bored housewives.

Well he is an ugly bastard but I would just not watch the press conferences. Problem solved. If he doesn’t want to go to Palace though I can’t see him coming here.

Its not the fact he doesn't want the Palace job he does want it he just doesn't want it right now because of the amount of games remaining and if we talking about remaining games he's more than likely wont come here either if that's the case.
