CONFIRMED Michael Cooper signs for the Blades

[Tezza1889]

Great it's over the line, as I've said ages back Girbic would relegate us almost single handedly this season, also speaks volumes for wilders proclamation of girbic being his "no 1" last season during the stalemate with wes.

That wasn't a signing with any input from the (football side) managerial team and in  my opinion the decision to sign him smelled fishier than castle market on a warm Friday afternoon.

I think Cooper might spend a lot of time bending down.

Only because he has to look between Souttar’s legs to see where the ball is!
He can’t see through him or round him.

So the cooper episode is now over the line. Feel it's a good move for him even though protracted. Happy that he has gone to a club where he will be playing each week rather than just sat on a bench. So what have you got, well I have said that his injury was unfortunate. It could be argued it was fortunate for yourselves. Prior to injury Burnley were circling to purchase him, injured they signed Trafford instead. Do I think he could be a future England Goalkeeper, well it's in his hands after all as I previously said he was voted as league 1 goalkeeper of the season ahead of Trafford and only played half the season. Season before voted efl goalkeeper of the season ahead of Bazuna at Southampton now. Saying that was the transfer fee fair. With the circumstances etc within football at the mo yes it's fair. 2 million upfront with 2 million to come plus a percentage of sell on fees. The transfer has been over two years in the making and now he just needs to prove what people think.

Oh no it isn't.

Actually the ratio of the lengths of the sides of A series paper are 1 : sqrt2 not 1:2.

The actual dimensions of A3 are 297 mm x 420 mm actually.

Bonus information in case the conversation flags at this point: The A series starts at A0 which has an area of one square metre. Then A1 which has an area of ½ square metre, and so on down to A10.

Lovin' the paper sizing thread, not sure why all these people keep posting about some goalkeeper?

Apparently he’s a talented cricketer too. This pleases me immensely.

 

[Slim Man]

He’s going to be the difference between a tilt at promotion and mid table. He breathes so much confidence into the back line and therefore the whole team.

Have we got a fan on John Street who is Tony Coton’s doppelgänger? Went for a pre game slash, vs Norwich, and coming out the loos was a bloke who looked like him. Told my mate back at our seats, not sure if just seen Tony Coton. Had a look back home and he is currently Man Utd’s gk scout. Good job Cooper nearly threw the ball in his own net first half then!

Interesting detail behind the search for a keeper
