K.T Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Also heard rumours that Bowyer is close to walking. No idea if there’s any truth to it mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did look thereafter that there wasn't much effort made trying to get the game on admittedly and don't know the ins and outs of stuff, but it was on. I’m hearing the opposite Ludo. That more than the 2 signings that fell through was what pissed Boywer off most. Edited January 7, 2023 by Yenitit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Bliss Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Bowyer seems to be a pretty good manager 2nd half. Just become a half decent one in the 1st half and we’ll be fine this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 A kindred, incredibly charming man is Mr Gary Bowyer, however he again is an unfortunate product of Mr Nelms' ongoing boardroom ineptitude. Anyone know of an available Scottish manager with a proven track record at this level, who may also have a massive chip on his shoulder to f**k Dundee United just for the fun of it? Yep, I know who I'd appoint, plus a potential, more than able assistant from a northern English Championship club. As Brian Clough once hinted, football is a simple game made overly complicated by fools. Regards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our club appears to struggle to attract players though considering what the likes of County, Livi, St Mirren, the filth, St Johnstone and the Motherwell’s of the world seem to get. Granted the location of 3 of them might be more favourable for them. Edited January 7, 2023 by Yenitit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Play Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 8 minutes ago, Ludo*1 said: Sorry, are you calling for Bowyer to be punted?! I think @This Charming Man is meaning if Bowyer walks. My big worry is I thought Bowyer’s demeanour immediately after the summer transfer was not what it was before due to the lack of signings. I can’t blame him knowing what he was going to have to work with. I also think Bowyer’s disappointment showed in results (maybe I’m just imaging it). We really can’t afford a repeat this transfer window. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 13 minutes ago, Ludo*1 said: Sorry, are you calling for Bowyer to be punted?! Far from it @Ludo*1 if I'm honest. However Mr Bowyer was a desperation appointment by Nelms' and Strachan after their two very public named targets told them where to shove it, again very publicly to their embarrassment. I've always been of the opinion Mr Bowyer, if successful at Dens would be poached and leave to a lower league English club far closer to home. Alternatively, if unsuccessful, he would remain and go through the motions like a poor mans version of Mark McGhee. Merely a realistic opinion of a not too complicated business operation. Regards as always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 We could probably scrape to a league win with our current squad, although I would prefer a more confident outlook. I think a lot of the current restraints on new players coming in, is because we still have McGinn on our books, he alone should free up enough for 2 decent championship players. You can also look at Legzdins, McGhee, Rudden and Sheridan as higher earners, we could probably look to move at least 1 of them on for another decent player in a position we need. Let's not forget we also have the Cummings windfall too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
