The most recent information about Nottingham Forest was shared when the away supporters sang Cooper’s name during the team’s 5-0 loss to Fulham.
Paul Robinson, a former England custodian, once remarked that he had never witnessed a stronger tie between a manager and his followers than that of Steve Cooper and Nottingham Forest.
The majority of the visiting supporters in the away end remained until the final whistle to sing Cooper’s name, even if Wednesday night’s heartbreaking 5-0 loss to Fulham was experienced. Moving to the away end, the head coach raised his hands in contrition for the manner the squad had performed.
The Forest manager discussed the significance of the reception in his press conference following the game. Even still, there are rumours that Cooper’s final game in charge of the team may have been the one against Fulham, despite the supporters’ overwhelming support.
The Welshman led Forest from the bottom of the Championship to the Premier League since signing in September 2021. Cooper and the club now share a kinship because of those accomplishments.
Robinson discussed the head coach’s reception in an interview with the BBC’s Football Daily Podcast. The team’s areas for improvement were also mentioned by the former goalie.
He remarked, “He’s a realist, but he’s a man that has the club’s support—he understands the club.” “I’ve never seen a manager with such dismal performance garner such a solid following from members of his own club. He has a very unique affinity and relationship with that football team.
However, they have only won once in the last eleven games, and they are achieving their objectives. They have lost to Brighton and given up three goals; they have also lost to West Ham and given up three goals to Fulham. In that combination, they’ve defeated Villa, but they’ve also given up three against Liverpool. They give up much too many goals.
“They didn’t really produce last weekend against a respectable Everton team at a home that was a true fortress for them last season. I fail to fathom where the goals would come from without [Taiwo] Awoniyi.”
