Early June is always quiet on the football front. It's the one time of year that you can guarantee nothing will happen. Why else do you think that they scheduled the Women's World Cup at this time?
If it's still like this at the beginning of next month, I'll start to worry. They're on holiday. They deserve one.

I assumed because the Canadians had paid Chuck Blazer and Jack Warner shed loads to get it in CONCACAF. You'd have thought the Qataris, would have been after this one. |

cooper going = bad on the face of it. we have a formula that works, changing it risks this.
but obviously it's impossible to tell what will happen given we are likely starting completely from scratch. no way of telling whether last seasons squad was a game changing formula to success, or a total fluke.

Agree with that.
I also agree it could be a bad thing, as said we have a formula of power, cooper & Williams and it worked. It seems to be that many think we can easy lose Cooper and Williams will step up, I unsure if this will work. Granted Williams appears to be a excellent coach but there a difference to coaching on training ground and managing the team. I view Williams very much as the Gorman role, brilliant number 2. I may well be wrong, but Williams never seems to show his self or be in any interview with the Press, also on a match day I don't notice much of him instructing from the bench, |

It would be good, for ticket sales and an increase in interest, if the club appointed a high profile manager should Cooper go. An ex player who is well known and could generate media interest.

A sort of Gareth Barry type player?  Actually for the record I totally agree with you Steve, another in the mould of Macari, Ardiles, Hoddle, (a lesser extent) McMahon, Di Canio etc would be ideal, a famous(ish) player coming to the end of his long Premiership/international career who wants to start the management ladder not at the total bottom rung but about 3/4 of the way up. |

And we're not little children
And we know what we want

Give us time to work it out

We now have a template, and I say what we'll get is someone who knows lower/non league, has a track record for developng players, currently out of work, cheap and low profile. Dave Hockaday might fit the bill. |

I don't disagree, but please not Hockaday. I don't think he did a very good job at all at Forest Green and his time at Leeds was a bit of a joke. |

Yes but at Lids he had no control over training, tactics, team talks, man management or signings......oh wait. |
