Don't forget how he improved the salary cap and its moved on to better things when it's abolished.Gravesend_Addick said:Wonder how many times Bowyer will mention the salary cap in his post deadline interview.
Feels like he complains about it more than anyone else3 -
Well I wasn't talking about how well or not Bonne has done playing for QPR but the fact he was brought from a non league club, thrown in at the deep end when he was supposed to be a "project". As you point out he's not at Championship level but was still our leading goalscorer & still Bowyer publicly slated him because he missed chances. Criticise if he must but is it helping a young player to do so to the media ?thenewbie said:
Bonne has gone on to do approximately fuck all in the championship so let's not pretend one swallow makes a summer there. He had a good season, he's not necessarily a good player - certainly not at Champ level yet.charltonbob said:
Or to look at an alternativeForeverAddickted said:Got a feeling this is just the beginning for a large part of the squad
Maddison especially going to Bolton will be a big message to the players that remain
Perform and represent the club to the standards we expect or we'll shed no tears about getting rid of you in the summer
Outgoings /possible outgoings in the window:
Bogle Nowhere near good enough but has suffered from Bowyers put downs in the media when Bowyer must have known what he was getting when he signed him.
Smyth Recalled by QPR
Doughty Refused a new contract
Maddison Criticised by Bowyer in the media the worst being "I don't care if he's seriously injured"
Williams Criticised by Bowyer in the media (praised as well at times) Rarely picked even when we're crying out for creativity & even as a sub when he's played well straight back on the bench next game. Wants to go to Cardiff
Last year
M.Bonne Brought from Non league, leading scorer for us in Championship but still criticised by Bowyer in the media.
Maybe some players aren't playing for him & can't wait to get out, possibly his man management skills leave a lot to be desired. Criticise players when needed but do it behind closed doors not on sky sports /newspapers.
Bogle was treated poorly but even so was pretty poor. Chicken/Egg at best with that.
Doughty refused to sign a contract. Was played nonetheless until injury, ended up making more on him than we would have if he'd waited to sod off to Scotland season's end.
Williams looks good but does not have any actual creativity. His goals/assists per game is poor. Nice guy but not actually bringing much to the table.
Maddison... We've heard a lot about. But at the very worst it sounds as if he has been just as much the sinner as the sinned against.
Bowyer definitely has made mistakes but not everything that goes wrong is just because "bAd MaNaGeMeNt."
The list also completely ignored the fact players have come IN as well.
Ignored the fact players have come in ? Hmm strange that, maybe it's because the post was about players who have left. Doughty was the only one that Bowyer didn't publicly slate. Slating your own players in public is bad management or "bAd MaNaGeMeNt." Do you have a problem with your caps lock ?

Most hardcore football fans are unhinged much of the time.I have been taking a look on #cafc Twitter and there's a mini meltdown. The squad has a couple of less bodies / but really don't understand the gnashing and wailing of teeth.3 -

I am a bit concerned that we don't have a single right midfielder in our squad.
It will lead to balance issues and we had moved away from playing people out of position.2 -
Cue Simon Stingy on a deal to the end of the season...ForeverAddickted said:0 -
I thought the same.Cafc43v3r said:Listening to Harry Redknapp talk about Bale is exactly what I would have said to Bowyer about Williams.
No, I am not over it, it's too soon 😭😭
'You're the manager. It's your job to get the best out of the player '1 -

Bowyer knew what he was getting with Williams and signed him twice. Maybe give him a pass with Maddison etcsirjohnhumphrey said:
I get that but the player has to take some responsibility if he isn’t starting a game. He’s made 200 appearances in ten years for seven clubs. It isn’t just here that it hasn’t quite worked out. I hope he has a great time at Cardiff and does well.killerandflash said:l
It's not Williams' fault that he's been on the bench. Indeed he's not been injured at all this seasonsirjohnhumphrey said:
A replacement for a player that spends a hell of a lot of time on the bench?se9addick said:
It is rather silly to let players go before you have replacements sorted.sirjohnhumphrey said:Fleetwood didn’t want to sell as they had no replacement, nothing to do with the player turning us down. Could the anti Bowyer brigade read what’s been reported before blaming it on Bowyer,
I share the respect for Williams on and off the pitch but I can’t see that him leaving is a devastating blow. Is Smith a potential replacement?0 -
How many players have we signed since TS took over?0

Surprising to see a couple of LOL's on this.MartinCAFC said:After hearing Bowyer bleat on about the salary cap every single week to which i've agreed with him up to now, but when the window closes I for one won't want to hear him whinge about the cap any more unless it's maxed out to the point it would be impossible to bring anybody else in.
So if when the window has closed the salary cap is not fully utilized or at least spent enough there's no wriggle room left then that's fine for a manager who moans about it every week? If you're going to moan about the cap at least fully use it.
I hope to see it fully utilized and there's still time left but it looks doubtful.1 -

I think you’ll find we still have Maatsen in our squadmendonca said:I am a bit concerned that we don't have a single right midfielder in our squad.

You could re-sign Callum Harriot or Scott Wagstaff at this point and I'd be midly happy.
Yes my expectations are that low. I just want some excitement2 -

Please don’t get excited. You just know it’ll be a 19 year old winger no one has heard of from Barnsley.
Edit: on loan.5 -
I would definitely take that.Bolderhumphreyreid said:Please don’t get excited. You just know it’ll be a 19 year old winger no one has heard of from Barnsley.3 - Sponsored links:

Gillingham have made a signing
could mean Graham incoming. Does anyone see a caravan at Sparrows Lane?7 -
We'll end up playing Washington wide right and Millar wide left in a 433, or 2 up top and a diamond formation with Millar at the top of the diamond if we get no-one else in1

Could be Graham as who else would get there that quick?
7 goals and 4 assists in 19 league games so far this season. Decent.1 -
The idea is to improve the squad, we are not playing a football version of The Price is Right.MartinCAFC said:

We wanted a right mid, Minto would be perfect.flyingkiwiDK said:
