Most liked posts in thread: Is Gary Bowyer a bully ?

That is a strong and quite frankly ridiculous suggestion. Are you suggesting that by not playing Cooke in his more favoured attacking role, that Bowyer is a bully?

All I have heard from players, is how good Bowyer is at man managing.

Not your best post Ronnie

 

Just look at Reeves, his come back under Bowyer is a minor miracle, can not imagine that happening within a Bullying culture

 

Interesting article in the T&A this morning, citing the return of injured players to boost Bowyers options over the hectic Christmas period, and it’s a really good point. The manager needs flexibility and depth given the number of fixtures over the next couple of weeks.

For example, he could go with a defensive 532 formation, get men behind the ball and go long to Vaughan or hit the channels for Oteh, relying on opposition mistakes to give us a goal.

Or he could go with a defensive 451 formation, get men behind the ball and go long to Vaughan or hit the channels for Oteh, relying on opposition mistakes to give us a goal.

Or maybe try something new, like a defensive 541 formation, get men behind the ball and go long to Vaughan or hit the channels for Oteh, relying on opposition mistakes to give us a goal.

 

Ridiculous shit stirring thread,get it locked

 

I just don't get this thread at all. Bowyer's football might not be great and we were dire in that second half yesterday but how it all correlates to him being a bully I have absolutely no idea.

It is more the case he just isn't getting the most out of this squad. He has generally stifled them due to his own safety first approach, but he has to exert some authority over the players given he is their manager. That isn't bullying.

 

Only taken one bite of my cornflakes, Ronnie, nearly coughed them back up. Have you woken with a headache and looking for something to take it out on?
Of course he isn't. Turning your thread off now.

 

@Fordy117 idea of a hot woman give it a miss RT.

 

that is called exerting your authority. Not bullying.

We're fifth in the league and on track for a good season.

Why do fans like you insist on hitting the self destruct button?

If anything, he's a great man manager. Look at how he has incorporated Reeves, who looked gone at the game, back into the set up.

If you want to look for a bully, look at those before him.

 

There might be question marks over his style of football at the moment but Bowyer isn't a bully, the complete opposite judging by the players comments. Can only see this threads comments going one way.

 

One of my tougher creative moments to be fair m8.

 

Straight from a Christmas cracker merry Christmas Ronnie

 

On Ronnie, not seen evidence myself to collaborate such a claim.

On Fordy, sick to f'ing death of reading all the negative, life is full of despair posts. Should rename this site, Fordytalk

 

I mean this thread is horrendous. We moan about the board, the manager and the players but some of you really need to have a good long hard look in the mirror as fans of the club.
Imagine players, managers or other fans coming on reading this?? It's embarrassing and needs taking down.

 

Midgets as Elfs.. hot women as santa washing cars. Business is flying!

I know how to make money.

 

You say "hate it when clubs use it as an excuse as it boils down to poor recruitment and letting certain players go".

Its not using it as an excuse its a fact
if they weren't injured they'd be playing instead of the players you mention.
The likes of Anderson & Devine were given contracts to fill midfield positions when we had injuries, it was never Bowyers intention for them to be regular starters, dont you underrstand that.

 

You do have to ask the question if watching Bradford City is as bad as some make out, (and no its not been great most of the season) why go and put yourself through the agony and then relive the experiance by reminding yourself of the terrible afternoon you just had by posting about it.

 

It's all about context. Our position is decent, football is efficient but the social aspect is still enjoyable in my world. For me, its a game of 4th tier football, bigger priorities in my world. And following a path of negativity each and every day, not for me.

 

Come on now @Fordy117 , that's your Granny cleaning all the graffiti off your Merc!

 

You're daft as a brush @Fordy117, but it looks like you keep some entertained.

By the way that crap I posted about Jake reeves playing in the starting 11 before Christmas............you know the one you had a bet with me and @Offcomedun and said you'd paid out, we're still awaiting the receipt from the Darby/Rimmer Foundation, I assume you'll be posting it on here, you being a rich business man who drives a top of the range Merc ?.

 

Had to read that three friggin times before I got what was happening
