Thanks for sorting this out DM.Serious question. Would you consider doing one for Dean Holden?I think quite a few on here would like to wish him well for the future.

Isn’t this slightly different though due to Cotts Covid battle?

Don’t believe we send a card to every manager/coach that gets sacked. Just my view though.

Hello all, my presence on this forum is somewhat limited these days, due to this 13 week old monkey, however I can’t help but feel guilty that I haven’t coordinated a card for Steve Cotterill in the same way I’ve done for others connected with our club who have been ill or suffered tragic events in their lives. 
 

Therefore I’m happy to put one together and get it to him, it just might take me a bit longer than usual. If people think this is a good idea, leave your messages below and I’ll put them all together in a card as I have done before. 
 

Hope everyone’s ok in these strange times :)

Steve Cotterill back in hospital with Covid-pneumonia

Shrewsbury manager Steve Cotterill has been re-admitted to hospital suffering from Covid-pneumonia.

The 56-year-old former Sligo Rovers boss returned home from hospital on 16 February having received extensive treatment for Covid-19 during a 33-day stay.

Cotterill, who was appointed by the Shrews in November, initially tested positive for coronavirus on 1 January and spent time in Bristol Royal Infirmary's intensive care unit after his illness progressed.

A statement from the Sky Bet League One club read: "Shrewsbury Town Football Club is disappointed to report Steve Cotterill has been re-admitted to the hospital.

"Following extensive treatment for Covid-19, Steve returned home from the hospital on February 16th.
However, Town's manager has returned to the hospital over the weekend as he is suffering from Covid-pneumonia.

"The club wishes Steve all the best in his recovery." 

 

Shrews assistant manager Aaron Wilbraham has taken charge of recent games, including the three played after Cotterill was discharged.

"For somebody who has never missed a day's work in his life, this will hit the manager really hard," said Wilbraham.

"He's one of the strongest and toughest people I know, and I know he'll get through this Covid-pneumonia."

Shrewsbury, who host AFC Wimbledon on Tuesday, sit 17th in League One. 

 

Your a winner Steve, you'll get through this. Keeping you in my prayers.

I hope this means he got his card 

 

That's a wonderful message from Steve. Marie you no doubt did our club proud. 

Lets all hope he is strong enough and remains fit enough to get the Shrews promoted this coming season. A class man and an excellent manager.

For anyone interested there is the first part of a three part interview with Cotts on the Shrewsbury website about what he had been through. Unbelievable what this done to him and you can’t help but feel that if he wasn’t as tough as he is he probably wouldn’t have made it through. You can see and hear the emotion from him…
