Wasn’t he manager of Southend last season when they got relegated?

Between him and McDonald they should get us the 6-8 points we need to be safe - then i'm guessing the process starts again as he's only been named as interim manager.

They were more doomed than us, with 6 games to go. I believe he got 2 wins and 3 draws from those games, but it wasn't enough.

if he gets 2 wins and 3 draws from 9 games he'll keep us up

I this reverse psychology? Everyone thought Cooper would be a good signing and proved a bad one. Now people think this is a bad one could it turn out to be a good one!!!!
