"Pat has been offered a new deal and he is thinking about that at the moment".
Now the man himself says he hasn't been offered anything.
So someone is lying?
To be fair to Bowyer, he si on;ly just repeating what he has been told by Roland and Murray.
If they don;t actually do it or alter the truth its not Lee's fault
Wouldn’t you verify with Bauer himself before telling the press? Or would you just think “that Duchâtelet bloke is a man of his word, no point whatsoever in me confirming this really important fact as it will definitely, definitely be true if good old Roland has said it to me”.
If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club that couldn't list a full set of subs for the opening game of the season, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club where the manager looked like breaking all records for being the longest standing caretaker in football, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club that had gone for ¾ year without a chief executive, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club that had dropped down the league despite my best efforts, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club where the owner was universally hated, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club where fans were staying away in droves, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club that sold its best young players at every opportunity, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club where proposed improvements to the training ground never happened, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club that the owner wanted to sell but couldn't because of its ridiculous over-valuation, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club that was penny pinching over every little thing, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer and I played for a club where people told you one thing and then did another, alarm bells would start ringing. If I was Patrick Bauer I'd be shouting from the rooftop, "the bells, the bells, somebody stop the bells, I can't hear myself think anymore"!

I think he should talk about on field matters only......if he doesn't deal with the contracts then he should direct the press to the arse'ole that does.
It’s made Lee Bowyer look silly. I get the impression that Bowyers not the sort of bloke that will take too much of that. He still hasn’t been offered the managers seat yet either despite saying that he and Roland would sit down and discuss it before the season started.
Can’t interpret it anyway, he’s not been offered a contract and won’t sign one if he’s offered. Let’s not try and spin it to think he is angling for a new and better contract. He’s gone.
I am not sure we have the appropriate staff to offer him one, they really need to address these staff issues. Get some Temps in, that's what most businesses would do
Not signing a new contract doesn't mean he will automatically leave this week. He might prefer to let his contract run out and get a nice signing on fee instead
Nope... I just hope he's fed up being under Roland and that if we can keep him till a takeover is completed (LOL!) then he'll maybe consider a new deal under our new owners - Really sounds like a come and get me plea though and explains he lack of performance Saturday as didnt seem on top of his game I must admit
Oh well... We're getting a new Defender (to replace Bauer) and a new Midfielder (to replace Aribo or JFC), so we'll only sign the one Goalkeeper that'll actually ADD to the squad before the window closes on Thursday
Certainly tallies up with what Ajose apparently said on the train home!!
What makes you think the club will sign anybody? Cos Bowyer says that's what he's been told? He's lied to, day after day, on every subject. There isn't a cat in hell's chance the BFG would be replaced if/when the duplicitous greedy owner accepts any other club's offer, cash up front obviously. Doeshitalot's form suggests he'd happily flog Pat to Shrewsbury on Wednesday evening and rush the paperwork through so he'd be eligible to play against us at the Valley on Saturday. £200k for Magennis with a year left - how much the BFG? £350k? £500k? All academic cos the proceeds won't be reinvested in the football business, just to ameliorate the europrat's losses. Our best(only) hopes rest in the integrity of PB, JA etc, that they'll resist any transfers to League 1 sides.
PB having said he wouldn't extend his current contract, the lying lunatic in Belgium will probably email Bow with instructions not to select him, cos Naby's better anyway.
What's the earliest a team has ever been relegated in a 46 match season?
Sounds like he is a tad annoyed, probably not helped by Charlton fans on twatter asking him when he is signing contract etc.
Don't think this pain will ever end. Genuinely thought a week or 2 ago that this side is 2/3 players away from being play offs at least but with JFC out and with Bauer and Aribo likely to be out the door plus the injuries mounting up we really are in shit street.
Roland's payback for all the piggies on the pitch..
In this context, Bowyer's positivity and message that we're aiming for promotion is starting to sound very hollow.
Can understand why he wants to be making the right noises, but he's going to be looking out of touch with reality if there are a couple of more sales this week.
Hopefully he’ll be asked why his player has seemingly contradicted him in this Thursday’s press conference.

Don’t worry Roland offered him a job as Bell Ringer

Wouldn’t be shocked to see Lee walk away.

@LouisMend "Pisses off another Manager"
The constant drip, drip of negativity & disappointment is very draining.
The players are merely pawns in the Rat's eyes.
The fans ( sorry, customers) are merely something to be scraped off his duct taped boots.
Just hope I'll still be alive & kicking when he finally slinks off to the bank muttering " I TOLD 'em I don't do failure!"
