JOEL Cooper says that whilst he was pleased with his debut by netting the winner – he believes he should have scored before then…

The attacker capped off a memorable debut by bagging the decisive goal as Coleraine edged out Larne on the opening day of the season.

Cooper says the group are still bonding and learning about each other and that he owes a lot to Declan McManus for picking him out with the assist.

The 29-year-old reflected on the clean sheet and his time at The Showgrounds so far.
