Also the Power/Cooper relationship has broken down completely so he wants out
How do you know this? |

If the relationship has genuinely broken down, he's clearly going, so bloody well go and let us move on. It's been rumbling on for too long now.
FWIW, he's done a good job, but I don't think he would have ever taken us out of League 1 . Nothing to base that on other than my own feeling and lack of ability to change things when required/against certain teams. It may be no different with the next man in charge either if as some are alluding to, the decisions were never down to Cooper. We shall see.

Well if that's true, Power will be delighted to be compensated for losing him. As long as Power's at the helm, the project's intact. I'm not overly worried.

I still don't buy into this 'Williams is the cause of our success, Cooper is just a frontman' talk.
It's a shame that when we do finally have a half decent manager, fans see fit to belittle him
Totally agree. |

Totally agree.
And me. Cooper's done a decent job and deserves more credit than he's getting |

The last Swindon boss to leave us for Wendies, didn't last long, and he was a much better operator than Cooper. I'm not expecting Cooper to last long. |

You surprise me Reg. You're normally such a cheery bundle of optimism with a sunny outlook on life  |

No one did here to be fair. I reckon he'll do well there.

On what basis....Wendies will be expecting Prem football by season's end, or at least a decent crack at it. Very different to expectations here. |

How can this saga be taking so long?
They want him, we have no objections, he wants to go, compo shouldn't really be a problem.
If they aint going to piss, get off the pot!

And from what I can gather from their forums, I don't think the appointment of Cooper and the foreign bloke is going to be a popular one. It is therefore reasonable to assume, because it is the nature of football fans in these situations, that they will be on their backs as soon as things start to go against them. |

But it's 15 years since they went down from the Prem, since when they've never got anywhere near the 2nd tier playoffs and have had 2 spells in the third tier. |

I know that and you know that, but some club's fans, can't help themselves. Take Oxford for example, they've been in Div 4 or non league for at least the last 15 years, and non league for the majority of Headington's history, yet a short top flight spell on the back of Maxwell's corrruption, means they think that's where they belong. |
