Yon weird-looking guy at Forest looking like the next one for the chop. Taking them from bottom of the championship to the premier league not good enough apparently, even with 22 new signings to try and build into a team.

Would be ridiculous if Forrest sacked Cooper after what he did last season. The huge number of players brought in during the Summer means he needs time to find his best team. After getting them promoted last season he surely deserves to be given more than a couple of months to do that.

Cooper seems to have been given the dreaded vote of confidence. Looks like they'll need to start winning within the next couple of games. Mental.

The world of football management is indeed a fickle business.

Got to ask what more could they realistically expected from Cooper. Survival in top league was always going to number one objective for Forest.

Think it would be a scandalous decision if they punted Cooper at this early stage of the season, particularly having backed him yto the extent they did in the last transfer window

Who'd have thought replacing 72% of the team that got you promoted would cause any problems?

Far from being sacked, Cooper has just signed a new three year contract.

Got hard job a head of him as large number players who have been signed by 6 different managers all of whom seem to have had different styles of play. Will be difficult getting a team together.

Another that falls in to the no surprise box Nathan Jones sacked by Southampton.

Should clarify that while results and chucking the players under the bus in recent interviews make his sacking no surprise I did think he would do well there and I am surprised it has gone bad so quickly.

According to the Guardian today Roy Hodgson is on his way back to them.

Guardian were correct as Roy Hodgson back at Palace.
