Forest Have Made A  Pretty Underwhelming Start To The 2023/24 Campaign

When Nick Miller believes Nottingham Forest will choose to fire Steve Cooper has been revealed. Although the 43-year-old was retained by the Reds last season by owner Evangelos Marinakis, the journalist believes that things may be different this time around.

Cooper has already performed admirably at Forest. For the first time in 23 years, he has guided the side back into the Premier League, and his group came together the previous season to secure survival.

Forest have made a pretty underwhelming start to the 2023/24 campaign. They’ve won just three times this season and some are starting to question whether or not Cooper will keep his job.

Miller thinks Cooper will be sacked this season

This is an interesting take and it won’t make Miller happy to say it. The very reputable journalist writes for The Athletic and he’s been quizzed on the season so far during a recent article

On who the first manager to be sacked in the Premier League will be, he answered: “Steve Cooper. Manchester United probably can’t afford to sack Ten Hag, Bournemouth’s recent wins will give Iraola some time and pretty much everyone else looks reasonably safe. Aside from Cooper.

“Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis got plenty of praise for keeping Cooper last season but, by his own admission, that was mainly because he couldn’t get anyone better. As soon as there’s another dip in results, and a valid replacement makes themselves known, he’ll pull the plug.”

Miller makes good points but Forest will be savvy over Cooper.

To be really honest, it’s difficult to argue against Miller’s views. During the previous season, there were rumors that Marinakis was considering different managers, Jorge Sampaoli being one of the options mentioned.

Of course, the club could be a little more astute now. There is now no threat of Forest dropping into the relegation zone as the team is still seven points clear of it.

These days, Cooper is a component of the Forest furniture. The majority of City Ground supporters support the 43-year-old, and it doesn’t appear like the Reds will be looking for a new head coach very soon.
