What I like about this is that he is from the Brendan academy of coaching.. should mean his ethos is aligned with positive possession based football…👍

Looks good on paper and been there since 2019 bring promoted in job role twice.
 
Where’s that been said Cooper?
In jackarmy.net lore, a Les Ferdinand (or Ferdie) refers to a post made on a topic where there is already at least one post existing on that subject.

It goes back to a time when Les Ferdinand signed for Reading and there were multiple posts made by people about it; so many that it just became ridiculous. From that point on, it was common to refer to a new post about old news as a Les Ferdinand or a Ferdie. As Cooperman demonstrated above, making sardonic or witty comments on the new posts as a way of letting people know it's a duplicate topic is a thing.

Quite why we gave a sh*t about Les Ferdinand signing for Reading at the time I can't remember.

There should be a sticky on the forum with a guideline to phrases and what they mean 🤣
 
As an aside, I saw ‘Sir’ Les last Thursday. We were on the same flight from Edinburgh to London. He still looks extremely fit.
