I think you may be forgetting that Bowyer is an employee of the club.Nicholas said:Same old shit. Bowyer couldn’t give a fuck about the club. No different to Robinson and all the other shit before them. All of them were in a no lose situation trying to further their own careers than actually giving a toss about our club. He knows full well Roland will sell any half decent players we have. Than he will suddenly miss out on all these wonderful targets he was after to improve our team and have to rely on youth, loans and freebie journeymen.
An employee, not a lifelong fan.
He's doing his job, as he sees it.
And of course he's going to look after his own interests, his own career.
It's what employees do.

It seems pretty clear to me the takeover is not happening. No smart person about to take over a club would allow them strip the club like this and risk relegation. Time to wake up and smell the coffee.1

he doesn't have to be an employee. 2 years ago he was happy as larry with his fishing lake in France. I expect he has a decent wedge to live on, enough that he doesn't have to bend & scrape to RD every day.Oggy Red said:

Doesn't deserve the goodwill of the fans then. If he wants to play puppet then he's as bad as the rest of them.Oggy Red said:

I don't see Lee Bowyer taking kindly to being bull shitted.
From his perspective Duchatelet was brave enough to give him, an untried manager, a shot. We can argue all we like about cheap options etc being the motive but Duchatelet has given an untried Lee Bowyer a shot.
Bowyer will quite naturally feel an amount of obligation which he has discharged by continuing under uncertain circumstances. Certain things have been 'agreed' apparently re comings and goings. However if those promises are broken without good extenuating circumstances I can see Lee disappearing as suddenly and unexpectedly as he first arrived.
No Robbo type bullshit from Bowyer. It is what it is and he'll do what he'll do end of.10 -

What do you think happens if Lee does tell RD to stick the job? Who do you think RD will put in charge for the season? Some low rate, low pay Belgian most likely. Or another of the coaching staff will be forced to take his place.
Now, if you were manager would you do that to this club, and the players you’ve spent months coaching?1 -

RD gave Bowyer his first shot in management which he was unlikely to get anywhere else with his background so will likely have a certain appreciation for that.
More importantly he now has a choice to quit and struggle to get another gig or stay and make a go at it.
By staying he has to be positive, no point saying we are selling everything that moves to the press and on the other hand trying to convince any player to come join on the other.1 -
Exactly that’s why people shouldn’t fall for any shit on how he loves the club and how he will do anything for the club.Oggy Red said:

I have no problem with Bowyer taking the job, but for crying out loud do not get quoted as giving Dushitelet any credit.Nicholas said:Same old shit. Bowyer couldn’t give a fuck about the club.

Bow sounds he is issuing an ultimatem to RD.
Let me bring in players if you're getting rid.
That is what he is saying.1 -
Just walk Lee, RD doesn't deserve you.0

And Marshall presumably if the rumours of a falling out are true.Marcus_cafc said:Konsa, Sarr, Lennon, Vetokele, Magennis possibly Bauer if 2mil met

Bowyer talks......shit1
-
He won't walk because this club gave him his break in football and he will feel a duty to the fans who got right behind him last season.0

Maybe Bowyer is hoping, like most of us, for better times under new owners5
-
I'd like to see Lee walk away if there is a fire sale and replacements of decent quality are not brought in.0
-
What else is Lee Bowyer able to say?
The least of our worries is Lee's commitment to the cause.3 -
And I’m pretty sure that if no sale progresses and the next couple of months evolve as I fear, Bowyer will not still be here’s come the start of the seasonOggy Red said:

If ever the word caretaker was more appropriate.0

I dont think I can go through this again...0

I'm not a businessman, but it seems a bit random to agree 5 out 4 in.
There must be a figure agreed for Bow to spend in pounds eh?? Hope he's read the small print before agreeing that. I reckon he might be restricted to the Proximus league for recruitment.1 -
Unless he gets a better offer from another club - or he can sue for constructive dismissal- I reckon he will.AFKABartram said:

I would imagine that a bad job at Charlton is better for Bowyer is better than no job.1 -
Maybe Bowyer is hoping that if he stays and does reasonably well then he'll be kept on if/when the new owners come in. Maybe he feels that a few months of struggling by will be rewarded eventually?0

If you add the five loanees to that and the probable loss of KAG, that’s 11 out and 4 in.Raith_C_Chattonell said:I'm not a businessman, but it seems a bit random to agree 5 out 4 in.
