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. |
Of the names linked who would you have appointed? |  |

I think someone was always going to give him a chance at a lower level
The financial mess created by appalling recruitment and contracts is well known and is not going to attract coaches who want to bring a load of players in. The new man would have to be prepared to work with a low budget and to develop the players that are here. Not everyone wants to do that therefore in my view the list of applicants was never going to excite.
It is a risk, as is every signing, hopefully Marsh will add the experience that Cooper lacks. | | | |

“ He was the perfect fit “
Cheap. Inexperienced. Unknown. Never worked with senior professional
Clubs. Sounds the perfect fit.
NOT GOING TO WORK. |
Every managerial appointment has risk attached to it. There’s always the chance it will go terribly wrong but in the same way it could be absolutely the right fit.
No problem with expressing views on here, that’s what a forum is about, but I’d say there’s nothing anyone can do now so let’s get behind him and hope for the best. Personally, I think he’s going to do well. |  |

Britton and curtis have played under many managers, both have been caretaker manager of Swansea, and been involved with coaching
Britton worked with Paul Clement and curtis has worked in most backroom staff roles at Swansea City, as well as being a part of Brian Flynn's Wales under-21 coaching set up.
I'd say that with their combined knowledge, for cooper to impress them, their decision says more that any naysayer forecasting a certain disaster. |  |

Glass half empty?
Very positive from a club legend |
He’s (Leon) going to be positive because he’s a club employee, he’s hardly going to bite the hand that feeds him.
I have an open mind on this appointment. Yes I would have liked someone with experience of managing at a comparable level, who plays the way the club want to play, who would be happy to build a team giving youngsters a chance, would be prepared to work on a very limited budget and be prepared to move to Wales, but I am not sure there are that many who tick all the boxes.
Cooper has worked at a number of clubs and must have something about him if he headed up Liverpool’s Academy and won a Youth World Cup. One thing for sure, he’ll probably work really hard to be successful. Let’s hope he can do a job for Swansea. [Post edited 15 Jun 2019 19:56]

I normally don't agree with Saint Helens about anything but this time he's right. Please ban this troll. [Post edited 15 Jun 2019 20:46]

"but I am not sure there are that many who tick all the boxes. "
*any
At least not any who we could afford or attract.
As you say, I'm sure he'll work super hard. He's chomping at the bit. Nothing better than someone young and hungry, who loves his job. He's going to do really well, I can feel it in my bones. |  |

Dear 'Four, Four, Two' magazine
I wonder if you could settle a dispute between me and my brother. Both being big Swans fan we're quite interested in finding out more about our new manager Steve Cooper.
I assert that before his success with the England youth set up and his time at Liverpool's academy that Steve started his career at the Wrexham academy, while my brother, on the other hand, believes that Steve is, in fact, a proper ugly c*nt. Could you settle this dispute for us please?
Thank you for your time, FFT magazine, I await your reply
Yours sincerely
Mr Maurice Wives
Dear Maurice
Good news. There is no need for the disagreement between you and your brother to continue. For while you are correct that Steve started his career at Wrexham, your brother is also correct that Steve is indeed a proper ugly c*nt.
Any more questions you have don't hesitate to contact us.
Yours sincerely
Derrick Smith
