Steve Cooper set for more time after Nottingham Forest draw eases pressure

Cooper is under pressure after a run of just one win in 12 games, a run that has left them in 16th place in the table and just five points above the drop zone.

The Nottingham Forest boss was in the position where a loss against Wolves could have sealed his fate, however Harry Toffolo's early effort meant that the Reds earned a point to keep the wolf from the door for a while longer.

But Cooper appears to be far from out of the woods just yet.

A 5-0 defeat to Fulham midweek left him in a precarious situation, with the west London side running riot at Craven Cottage.

Having lost to relegation-threatened Everton just before that, it was no surprise that he was feeling the heat with Gabby Agbonlahor saying that even the fans' support might not save him.

Speaking after the Fulham game, he said: "They've got 13 points - Everton have been deducted ten and are only six points behind them. It doesn't look good.

"Fulham are a decent team, but Nottingham Forest shouldn't be losing 5-0.

"Steve Cooper seems like a really likeable guy and the fans are singing his name still, but the owners will be looking at the league table."
