Well I wasn’t talking about the Spanish Football League was I.

The football league is the Championship, League 1 and League 2.

Then there is the Premier League.

It’s ok to just say you jumped in too quick again and got it wrong, it would save you going all round the houses and digging holes for yourself. I won’t think any less of you.

If I wasn’t making a distinction between leagues then I would have just said “most successful manager since Brendan”.

Come on now, stop being silly.

Don't go are whether you think less of me or not.
You are clearly an argumentative self opinionated person who cannot accept it was you who constructed your sentence incorrectly and therefore made it seem that you were saying Cooper was better than Laudrup.
You then compounded this in the "Overeaction" thread by saying you would actually choose Cooper over Laudrup as a league manager ?

I didn’t construct anything incorrectly, I made the point that Cooper is our most successful manager in the football league since Brendan.

You, being argumentative, immediately jumped on it without reading it properly. When someone pointed your error out to you, instead of admitting your error you decided to stick with it and go around the houses to justify your nonsense.

It is a separate discussion regarding who I would choose as a manager tomorrow if I was in charge of a club. But it would be Cooper, but that has nothing to do with the point I made regarding most successful football league manager.

Sorry but you won’t be getting anywhere with this one.

So just to clarify, you are saying that if you were in charge of the club, and Cooper (with his great book of contacts from the England Youth setup and no experience of playing outside the Welsh Pyramid system) and Laudrup (with his worldwide international contacts and experience of playing at the very top level, including the World Cup, not mention winning our only major trophy in our history with him as manager), came for interviews.
You would honestly choose two times play off failure Cooper ?

Without question, as would most other clubs in world football.

Are you seriously telling me you would choose a manager who says he finds management boring, last managed Al Rayyad 4 years ago over a young up and coming manager who is improving his winning % every single season?

Next you still be telling me you would choose John Toshack for the same reasons.

If you compare the squad we had last season to the Forest squad he took over this season do you feel there is a vast difference?
I feel that with the right manager in charge or even Cooper with a more positive emphasis in games, we could have achieved promotion last season.
The Cooper we saw for those two seasons was not playing the same type of football as he is at Forest now.
So just as you call Martin's capabilities into question, for that reason I call Cooper's capabilities into question.
Based on the Laudrup / Cooper we saw at Swansea, Laudrup wins hands down.
The Cooper and Laudrup of today are a different matter

No Laudrup in sight.

Considering he’s out of work you would think he would be in the mix right? Seems the Premier League clubs agree with my take on it, Cooper will always be higher on these lists than Laudrup.

The Forest team he took over was bottom of the league, last year they finished 18th and haven’t finished in the play-offs since 2011. When he took over everyone was saying “now we will see how good he is”… now revisionism being revisionism they were always destined for a fantastic season.

Cooper equalled Brendan Rodgers league record last season. We needed 92 points for automatic promotion, something we have never got close to in our history at this level, let alone do it without a proper striker and a squad cobbled together with loans due to financial restraints and cost cutting.

The difference is you are criticising a manager for delivering one of our most successful league seasons at this level in our history where as I am criticising a manager that is delivering our worst season in over a decade, probably close to two decades despite spending nearly £6m on players.

Regarding Laudrup, you are having two different conversations, you are carrying on the comparison of Laudrups season a decade ago, remember nobody made that comparison, only you.

I said if I was appointing a manager TOMORROW. Cooper wins hands down.

Which he does, clearly.

Honestly relying on betting odds ?
You and I both know they only represent where money is being placed.
If enough people put money on Lord Lucan riding Shergar it would appear on there.
Cooper before Pochettino ?
Sorry but that is beyond ridiculous

Of course.

If Laudrup was a realistic candidate then why wouldn’t anyone put any money on him for him to come into the market?

I think it’s hilarious you think Laudrup has a better chance of the job than Cooper. I can only assume you have backed yourself into a hole again and unwilling to back down.

You are comparing Laudrups stock of 10 years ago to his stock of today aren’t you… be honest.

That is exactly what I said above - based on the Laudrup and Cooper we saw at Swansea.
Both since leaving have taken different paths, although Cooper has still won nothing.
I think any PL team would be underwhelmed if he was appointed manager

It’s not what you said at all.

In fact you said:-

“You have lost all credibility, yet you will still not back down from that preposterous position.”

Turns out you now agree with that “preposterous position.”

Shock horrror.

What are you talking about.

I clearly said “if I was appointing a manager TOMORROW, Cooper would win hands down”. I made it clear that who was most successful when here is a different discussion altogether.

You then said that was a “preposterous position”, before finally agreeing with me.

Number 2 poster was wrong once. 2006 I think it was. But it was overturned on page 86.

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.
