Notes - Extremely rare player shirt believed to have been issued to Cooper during the 2000-01 season. Forest continued to struggle to mount a serious chance for promotion back to the Premiership this season and had to settle for an 11th placed finish in the First Division, 6 points off the final playoff spot. Cooper featured just twice this season for the Reds coming on as a late sub for Ben Olsen in a 2-0 victory over Sheffield United at the City Ground and then entering the fray just after half time in a 1-0 loss to Burnley at Turf Moor the following week. He joined 3rd Division side York City on loan in the transfer window and helped the Minstermen avoid relegation before opting to sign a permanent deal at Bootham Crescent in the search of more game time and later had spells with Alfreton Town and Eastwood Town. This Perrywinkle blue kit had been worn the previous season but rolled over to this year as the side's third shirt with new look Football League sleeve patches.
