rawowl Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) http://m.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/13347148._/ A DECISION on Mark Cooper’s move to Sheffield Wednesday looks likely to be made this week. The head coach role, which was first mooted by the Owls last week, seems to have piqued the interest of the Town boss and talks have progressed in that regard. Advertiser sources in Yorkshire have suggested the deal for Carlos Carvalhal is done and the Owls are waiting to sign off on Cooper before announcing the pair as a management team, with the Portuguese in a general manager position. The only stumbling block on the move is thought to be the size of the compensation package Town would be due. Cooper has a year left on his contract in Swindon and it is thought any deal to take the 46-year-old to Hillsborough would involve a six-figure fee. Cooper has been Town manager since the summer of 2013 when he took over from Kevin MacDonald. Edited June 23, 2015 by rawowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 100 grand is six figures. Let's get these appointments made and get on with it, I'm slowly going crazy with all the waiting around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppers Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Sounds plausible. So cue the announcement, is everyone happy? I guess then we need signings? I am guessing Carlos will be lining these up so once the announcement is made it could be all systems go. Come on Wednesday!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthndav Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 100 grand is six figures. Let's get these appointments made and get on with it, I'm slowly going crazy with all the waiting around. So is £999,999. I hope it's closer to your figure for someone who let's face it has achieved very little. That God awful stint at Peterborough, balances out the play-off final with Swindon for me.

rawowl Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 It's moved on from having to agree terms with Cooper to agreeing compensation with Swindon. I wouldn't call it a nothing story. Wether the story is true is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Both MC & CC already been sorting their backroom staff. Former keeper been approached by both and accepted role to take first team goalkeeper coach role. Really? Shame as I thought Rhodes was quite highly rated / liked by Westwood and Kirkland.
