Kevin Cullis.
Cullis' brief managerial career at the professional level came when he was appointed manager of Third Division Swansea City on 8 February 1996 by prospective new chairman Michael Thompson. He had never played nor coached in professional football and his only previous management experience was as the youth coach of non-league club Cradley Town,[1] then of the West Midlands (Regional) League Premier Division, and based at Cradley in the Black Country.

Cullis managed Swansea City for just one-and-a-half games: a 1—0 home defeat to Swindon Town and 45 minutes of an eventual 4-0 defeat at Blackpool. In the second match, which took place at Bloomfield Road on 13 February 1996, Cullis’ planned half-time team talk was ignored as the players took control. Christian Edwards gave the team talk and game plan instead, and Cullis resigned shortly afterwards.

Steve Cooper
At the age of 27, Cooper became a UEFA Pro Licence holder. On 3 September 2008, after being head of youth development at Wrexham, he was appointed at Liverpool, initially taking charge of the under-12's. On 18 July 2011, he was named Academy manager. Whilst at Liverpool, Cooper oversaw the development of such players as Raheem Sterling, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Ben Woodburn. In 2013, Cooper joined the FA as a youth coach educator

On 13 October 2014, Cooper was appointed as manager of the England national under-16 team. The following year, he took charge of the under-17s, coaching players such as Jadon Sancho, Phil Foden, and Callum Hudson-Odoi. Cooper led his side to the final of the 2017 UEFA European U17 Championship, where they lost to Spain 4—1 on penalties following a 2—2 draw. Cooper's U17s then won the 2017 FIFA U17 World Cup in October 2017, beating Spain 5—2 in the final.

Cooper likes his teams to play "attractive football" with a "clear identity" and "good organisation and structure". He prefers his teams to control the game, stating "It's about playing our way... we want to play with purpose, dominate possession, play forward and get the ball back as quick as we can. That's always our plan."

Cooper coaches his teams to have "tactical discipline, composure, and aggression". He cites former Barcelona B coach José Segura as his main influence; the pair worked together at Liverpool's academy.

Yep, he's definitely on a par with Cullis!


'Christian Edwards gave the team talk and game plan instead, and Cullis resigned shortly afterwards'.

I thought Dave Penney took over the half time team talk, Gary?

I copied and pasted it from Wiki. From memory i believe it was Christian Edwards who told him he didn't know what he was talking about, and Dave Penney took over from there.

Interesting about where this leaves Toshack now. It must be a bit of a kick in the teeth for him so he probably wants out. Yes Cooper has enjoyed greater success but in a lower age group, so they have similar credentials overall. If we wanted an academy manager to coach the first team, why didn’t we just promote the one we have? The one who knows the club, players and set up.


It all seems very very odd

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Well not really. I'm sure they've already started their planning as it's done and dusted, but just let the English FA pay them until next week. Makes sense to me.

You've experienced a very strong gut feeling that Cooper will be a certain disaster if we appoint him.

This strong gut feeling has worried you so much, it has become a certain fact to you (going by your posts).

What about other people's gut feelings, what do they mean to you. Do you believe that there is even a slight chance that Cooper could do well.


My gut feeling is we have unearthed a gem :)

We need someone with contacts. It's not just about knowing the players we have, we need better ones even if they're on loan. Toshack has zero contacts. I would hazard a guess and say with Coopers and Marsh's CV they would have a far greater network of contacts and knowledge of young players than Toshack,


You think Toshack and Richards haven't been doing opposition research in years of PL2 and international cup competition?

If your are open to Cooper being manager (I am) or against it it doesn't really matter.

He does poorly he gets sacked
He does well he gets poached.
18 months max.

Rinse and repeat.


I agree. But this time Birch says he will have a setup behind the scenes and a plan so tht another manager can slot straight in to OUR setup :)

Yes, no doubt. I just doubt their ability to attract them to our club.
