FAN VIEW: After 25 turgid years, Steve Cooper got Forest back into the top tier and should NOT be sacked, despite the £140m summer splurge on 22 players. Replace him with Benitez? Shoot me now. Sean Dyche? Yuk!

'Twenty one players… they're all f****** s***' was the chant from Bournemouth's away fans when they came from behind to beat Nottingham Forest 3-2 last month.

Such has been the splurging of cash at the City Ground, that number's already out of date.

A total of 22 new players have walked through the doors since my club's return to the Premier League after an absence of more than a quarter of century.
