    I don't mind him talking about it but watching him rev up the Blackpool fans and doing funny handshakes with their players before they dicked us 4-1 was especially embarrassing.

    It seems to me that some fans are hell bent on doing him down before he’s had a chance to put his stamp on things.

    We’re a lower league club with a non league bank balance and fans who have premiership taste. We ain’t going to attract high end managers, but what we have is a safe pair of hands to stop the rot.

    Cut him some slack and stop scrutinising every little thing that comes out of the club.

    When he gets results and proves himself at Bradford City then he can get all the slack in the world.

    Up until then he has a massive job to do.

    Ha, ha, ha ............
    You've all been Walloped !

    @Captain Black Adder@Captain Black Adder posts throws three early posts out there (then conveniently disapears), and like Lambs to slaughter - you all tag on. Oh dear.
    I suggest you ALL account for your OWN visions, rather than being led by Dr Doom, and his limited followers.

    It was a legitimate created thread rightly called out for being bollocks.

    Don’t try and credit it as WUMing

    Now now, Ronnie. It was a serious thread. This is not the Cows Arse you know. Please do not assume that anything controversial is merely ‘WUMing’, whatever that means.

    Referring to past experiences that are relevant to the current situation seems reasonable to me. He’s been there and done it before in the football league and if he can do it again with us then we would all be happy with that.

    We all have a view about failure - But to suggest Bowyer is a failure without a signing next to his name at this stage, is ridiculous. TCA has nothing to do with my own view, so it's pointless dragging them into this.
    Bowyer may be a God send, or the complete opposite. All I'm asking for is can we wait to see his own assembled squad, before we drive a steak through his heart ?
    I hope and expect to see improvement all over the park, next season, with or without any already contracted players on our books - lets see how it plays out, before widespread condemnation takes a hold.

    Bolton fans have slated Parkinson for his dire tactics, signings and the number of losses.

    However, I don’t think their fans moaned like the OP has done, despite PP always mentioning what he did at City

    Bowyer has a very slick media presence. There's interviews everyday bigging himself up and going on about stuff he's done and stuff he's going to do. In one such article recently he went on about how much work there is to do. It does make you wonder if he shouldn't be giving the self-promotion a rest for a bit and just get on with it.

    It is getting boring because he hasn't brought in the results.

    He should just shut up and get on with things.

    If he can't then explain why

    Maybe he is doing just that, one signing already and still in May.

    The BMWs are a much better "drivers" car but the Mercs are usually a better ride plus the Beemers have better tech on them
