Chairman backs Swindon boss Cooper
       


Criticism aimed at Swindon Town manager Mark Cooper has been unfair, according to Robins chairman Lee Power.

As long as your mate is Sherwood and not Mallet that is ok

Sherwoods job at Spurs looking a bit rocky to say the least.

True, but even with Power's connection, do you think Sherwood would actually come to us?

I always like the idea of a top pro coming in as manager at a lower level, at the very least they will have high standards/expectations and should, in theory, command the respect of L1 level players.

Worked with PDC, Wise etc.

I think he went about things the right way to start his coaching career, the best part of 5/6 working behind the scenes learning the ropes rather than jump into management.

In hindsight taking the Spurs job will probably be turn out to be a mistake but he could hardly turn the opportunity down.

I'd have here in a shot, he is highly regarded as a coach which let's face it is what our manager position actually is.

I pay little to no attention to the Premier League, but Spurs are in 5th place so surely he must be doing reasonable job at least.
