You have to remember that our owners gave Cooper permission to talk to Palace in the first place, looks like both parties want a parting of the ways.
Unfortunately not to be this time.
Exactly, it's not as if he was taking interviews without permission from the club. If he did indeed have an interview before the Playoff final then presumably the club signed off on that, which would be a strange decision on the club's part in my opinion.
Cooper absolutely doesn't have to resign, he's done nothing wrong as far as we know. Just because plenty of us are eager to see him leave, we don't need to become hysterical.
The most likely departure now seems to be mutual termination of his contact, a la Sousa, but I can't see us wanting to pay off any of his contract in the current financial climate.
