    We would not have been relegated in 2006/7 if we'd stuck with Dowie.

    Maybe, but we would have had the best cricket eleven in the premier league that season with Matt Holland called up as opening bat for Ireland.

    that explains the amount of money he pissed up the wall when he was here.
    And why all the players he brought in were at best a level below...

    Like Souleymane Diawara who Richard Murray described as "apparently the best centre-half you've never heard of."

    Having given him the money to sanction the deal.

    We got most of that back anyway.

    Amdy Faye has to be one of the worst players to put on a Charlton shirt.
  • Reid and Diawara were good players

    I don't really get this. Was voted player of the month, by the fans, in August that season.

    Goldfish memories, some of you...

    I concur with the original comment. He was abysmal.

    You ask a Chelsea fan about Jimmy Floyd H, they will give you a VERY different view about him from the average Charlton fan.

    Madjid Bougherra is a fantastic footballer, too good to be a centre half.

    I first saw him play for Wednesday v Birmingham before he came to us, I was doing cartwheels when I heard that we had signed him. Most Charlton fans will be indifferent to him.

    Football, all about opinion.

    Flush with birthday money, I got his name printed on the back of my shirt after his home debut against Bolton in which he played very well

    Way way too shit to be in football.
    Neither his players or the SKY audience could understand a word he spluttered.
    Next stop - MP. He'll be well suited.

  • Dowie as a sales man...! I guess he did a good job of selling himself...
  • Only shame is that Sky still employing him, he is terrible
  • Obviously put that PowerPoint presentation to good use.
  • Better let his sales team know not to go jogging with him without a sat-nav.
  • Better than Fraeye

    What do you reckon @johnny73? Soaring in Sales or Growing with GoTo? :smile:

    He has certainly found his niche. Shame it took him 50 odd years.
  • Should never have sacked him

    Dowie is the English version of fraeye so by default of "knowing the English leagues" then yes, dowie (just about) better.

  • Before undertaking his football career that spanned three decades Dowie earned a Masters in Engineering from the University of Hertfordshire.
    I didn't know that. Why did he choose to play football rather than work in a field related to what he learned in the university? Not that the disaster that is the 2006/07 season would not have happened at all but I just can't help wondering how things wound have been if we had never appointed him.... :(
