Peterborough chairman doesn't sell cheap either, and is pretty open about their business on twitter.
edit: Player submitted a transfer request to force a move last summer so story sounds agent-driven to me. [Post edited 14 Jun 2019 16:23]

Who at the club has been keeping tabs on anyone "for some time"? The kitman?
First scouting team left last summer, chairman left after January, new scouting team left in May. Even the club secretary has gone, and she'd at least know where the files are kept. |
Britton & Curtis plus the list Potter already had. | |

His old man will disown him. |
I think his father is a little too intelligent for that. I'm sure he'll be extremely proud. | | | |

He looks so happy in all the pictures I cant help but like him. He looks as chuffed as fk. In fact in the one picture with Mike Marsh he looks like he has bonged a whole 8th of Northern Lights in one bowl. [Post edited 14 Jun 2019 18:01]

Neither hated us like this fellas family and most likely he did before seeing a well paid managerial job come up.
Childish or not, the Cardiff supporter thing doesn’t sit well with me at all, but now he’s here we have got to get behind him and pray he works wonders with what he will be given. |  | | |

14 months on, and big chunks of our fanbase still stink of PL entitlement. |  |

You have serious issues. Our new managers father is a c@nt because he's a Cardiff fan that once, gave something back to the North Bank. Honestly, take a look in the mirror, look at your family, then ask yourself, am I really this person. | | | |

LEON BRITTON BELIEVES NEW HEAD COACH STEVE COOPER IS THE PERFECT FIT FOR SWANSEA CITY.
England Under-17s' World Cup winning coach Cooper has signed a three-year contract at the Liberty Stadium, bringing in Mike Marsh as his assistant first-team coach.
The 39-year-old - who was born in Pontypridd - was chosen as the new Swans boss following an exhaustive search, with chairman Trevor Birch, Britton and honorary club president Alan Curtis working to make sure of appointing the right candidate.
Birch had made clear the club were looking for "a hungry, ambitious coach, who had a clear track record of playing our style of football, plus a pedigree to work with and develop young, talented players".
And Britton has no doubt Cooper will prove to be a success in SA1 after his appointment was announced on Thursday, revealing the clarity with which the new Swans boss mapped out his vision for the future.
"We are delighted to get Steve in," said the former Swans midfielder, who was appointed as football advisor to the club board in May.
"I was involved in the process from the start, and it was a thorough process. We spoke to a lot of people, and cut it down from there.
"But once we spoke to Steve it became clear he was the stand-out candidate to take the club forward, and that was clear in my mind, Trevor's mind and Curt's mind too.
"The way he wants to play was key. A lot of people can talk about the way they want to play, but with Steve there was that clarity in how he would go about it.
"It's easy to say you want to play attractive, passing football, but Steve knew and understood the process by which he could get a team to play that way.
"He spoke about how he would structure the sessions, and we are talking about a coach of an excellent calibre and reputation following his excellent work with Liverpool and England.
"He was the perfect fit."
Britton feels Cooper's excellent work with the Wrexham and Liverpool academies, plus his successes at the Football Association, marks him out as someone with the right skills to lead a youthful Swansea squad.
"Steve's background in working with young players is a big positive," added Britton.
"You look at our squad, and it is a young squad. I think we were in the top three or four in the entire EFL last season for minutes played by players aged 23 and under.
"He has a history of dealing and developing talented young players, and that's a major plus for us." | |

They have. I hope it works. But it’s an almighty gamble at a time when consolidation is needed.
It shows how quickly and how far the Club has fallen. Christ he wouldn’t have got a job as Youth team manager two years ago. | |

First scouting team left last summer, chairman left after January, new scouting team left in May. Even the club secretary has gone, and she'd at least know where the files are kept. |
Macaulay would have identified targets so the club has all that information, assuming a similar playing style they'd still be relevant.
Whether they're the right targets remains to be seen though given the likes of McKay were signed last summer 🤔 |  | | |

Good article, strong statement saying he: 'has no doubt Cooper will prove to be a success'
I'd have some doubts whoever it was myself. | |

an article where you get a mention: 'Whether you’re one of the positive ones, enthused by this appointment, or one of the doubters dreading the worst, the least any fan can do is view Cooper with an open mind and get behind him from the beginning.'
