Following their valiant draw at Wolves on Saturday, Nottingham Forest has no immediate plans to fire Steve Cooper.

Cooper would not survive a fifth straight Premier League loss, according to a report earlier this week from Sky Sports News, and Forest’s owner Evangelos Marinakis is seriously contemplating switching managers.

But Marinakis has been somewhat appeased by Cooper’s performance and outcome at Molineux, and the Greek businessman has now abandoned his plans to fire Cooper in the near future.

According to reports, Marinakis was moved by the players’ fight and passion during the 1-1 tie, which suggests they still have faith in Cooper.

Before the draw with Wolves, rumours circulated that the Forest management was beginning to believe that new ideas were required and that there was a disagreement over tactics between the players and the coaching staff.
It was also reported that Cooper’s supervisors at Forest were growing more and more irritated with his work.

Forest’s next match is this Friday, live on Sky Sports, at home against Tottenham.

At the final whistle at Molineux, Cooper saluted the Forest fans and beat his hand emotionally against his chest.

Speaking to reporters after full-time, he said: “If you look at the game and the context I’m proud of my team, proud of how we played. It’s a positive away point.

“If you put that on top of the noise – which hasn’t crept into the training ground because we won’t let that – all you see is a team who love playing for the club and want to do well.

“We could have hid away and sulked, or we can stand up and be counted, and that’s what you saw. It shows how together everyone is at the club.

“It’s not a bad day’s work with everything in mind.”
