    As much as I would hate to see Coop go, I think that this is a bad choice.

    Do we know anything on Toja? It has been quite and I was wondering if he was even around.

    I would hate to see Coop go also but I think this was a bad call. They really should allow Coop to move on if that is what he wants and it is the right price. Do not keep some one so you can save the remaining season. That is not cool.

    Here’s hoping that instead of moping, which is something I think Taylor Twellman has done the past year or so, Kenny Cooper goes out an scores a ton more goals. Raising his transfer fee is the best way for KC to entice the club to sell him.

    I agree with Nic. If KC can keep the momentum going he’ll command a much higher transfer fee — he definitely has more talent than EJ, who got a substantial fee last year. Plus, when the Jan. transfer window opens, a lot of struggling EPL teams will be desperate to find a goal scorer, and for better or worse, all eyes will be on KC.

    Hopefully management can make this win-win and do something for KC in the meantime — bump his pay, smooth out things for his next transfer…something to create some goodwill and prevent the Twellman syndrome…
