Quite obviously, it’s a family member making sure Mike’s reputation is not tarnished any more than some of the idiots on here are trying to do.

No doubting Mike gave everything for the club, as you’d expect.

A bit naughty from Powell but clearly he’s trying to do his ‘job’ by any means necessary.

Did he "tear Leeds a new one" ?

Obviously saving himself........

I think he'll play well against us but so be it, his ex team mates know what to expect and need to match/better it. I don't expect anyone to be intimidated by Cooper to the point of them being in awe, like fawning teenagers at a Donny Osmond concert.

Those days remind me of my dads evening paper being lowered, when a certain dance troupe were on the magic telebox on a Thursday evening.

TBH the Wigan game is a bit of a dead rubber for us - we need to be beating teams in the lower half, rather than (on this occasion) busting ourselves to beat Wigan.

Absolutely, two league points from tonight's game is vital, and could allow a player or two with a knock, to be rested against Huddersfield and Wigan.
Then they'll be ready for the other important game against Toulouse.
