I'm more unhappy that we're using a European set up of director of football and head coach than anything. I don't think it matters who the manager is as it's still Power calling the important shots anyway.

Add Jimmy Quinn to that as well
Jimmy Quinn had taken Reading to the Championship PO final, albeit as part of a duo. He also did manage to keep us up, taking over from the train wreck left by McMahon. |

KMac was appointed pre Power...and I've yet to see anything to contradict the notion that he quit because of Power's influence on decision making
Two way street that though - not seen anything saying he quit at all |

And I've yet to see anything proving it.... |

Fot those wishing we appoint a proven league manager; the last, experienced league manager we had was Paul (4-3-3) Hart....
Picking a manager that's going to be successful isn't as easy or straightforward as some seem to think. I also think arriba got it spot on re Cooper's role, he's Head Coach.

No that was George Reynolds.
I quoted the bloke who saved them in 2009.
You can take a turn now - Tell us all why you are happy with Cooper being appointed as manager of our football club.
Go!
Ahh this bloke. What a saviour http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raj_Singh,_businessmanI just think we should give Cooper more than 4 games before we start forming opinions on whether he's a good choice or not. If we did everything based on successful track records with no negatives then we wouldn't appoint anyone. |

After the Stevenage game everyone was singing Cooper's praises, that they'd be behind him if he got the job blah blah blah.. If he gets it I'm going to get behind him, I don't particularly want him to get it, but it seems that he has, certainly not going to hope for him to fail.
