To be reported in the mirror and the express tomorrow so I am told. Not exactly what we want to hear but the longer our excellent form continues, the more chance rumours like this will resurface.
Just shows what a great job Lee is doing. Highly doubt he will be interested in taking over a side near enough nailed on for relegation already (IMO).

We've got a decent owner now so these things dont bother me anymore
Never say never but can't see it happening just yet.
Bit bizarre that team in the Premier League would look to poach a manger from League One, planning already for the Championship possibly
Not particularly worried myself, but has been years since I started a thread!
I don't think he'll go just yet.
If he's not excited about what's going on at Charlton at the moment and wants to be part of it after all the work he has put in I would be amazed.
I really dont think moving from the area you are from in the middle of a pandemic from a club you are happy with under a good owner to a yoyo club who sacked Darren Moore last year despite being 3rd will tempt him.
Obviously money would the only thing that could but even so , hes already got plenty. I dont think hes greedy.
If Lee wanted to leave he could already have done so when the Skint Sheikh and Matt "I Like Fake Tits?" Southall were making us a national laughing stock.
Bowyer is a very smart guy, he knows that WBA are going to be stuck in a relegation battle that they will probably lose - and he will be blamed for - so what's the point of going there?
WBA are a great club, very well run and a good fan base but where is the upside for Bowyer in going there?
What is there to achieve really that Bilic and other recent WBA managers haven't already achieved?
By comparison, he could be the first CAFC manager since Curbs way back in 2000 to take us back to the Premier League.
That's a very big difference.
Imo he’s settled down in Kent with youngish children .
It would take a monster offer to leave the area or Gillingham ...
seriously he will go when it suits him , so if West Ham came in for him he’d be gone in a shot cos of location location location and that’s what we have going for us against the likes of West Brom .
of course the stability and ambitions of TS give us more attractiveness but Bowyer has stayed with us during the wank ownership because it suited him not because of some magical bond to the club that some fans believe exists between players/managers and our club.
But I am not sure the "he didn't go when we were a basket case, so he won't go now" is accurate. No one would have blamed him if he had walked any time between March and September but maybe he knows that if he had what the consequences would have been, for the club.
Without the crowds I wonder if there is less of a lure. Though let's face it, money does speak.
