Next manager odds swing all over the place. He is a very wealthy man and is lucky he does not need to chase the wage so only reason to go would be their budget and chance of success. They would certainly be better than us in that regards but the issue with Huddersfield is it is in Huddersfield and therefore shit. Lee is way likely to wait for a better club before he leaves us IMO.
I trust that if Bowyer does consider a move to Huddersfield, we get on his back, call him disloyal, abuse him on social media, turn up at his house, etc. That is what we do when our football people consider leaving, right?
I really hate to put this out there, but my work colleague was in London yesterday and he sent me a text last night from Euston station and I quote "Just at Euston and just seen Lee Bowyer with a travel bag, must be watching a game somewhere tonight, not sure where he was going he was looking at the screen" end of text. I responded that perhaps off to Plymouth as Reading were playing there and we are playing them Saturday. A few minutes later I texted him again saying it cant be Plymouth and he had seen LB at 4:15 at Euston on the concourse and trains to Plymouth take 4 hours. I didn't think anymore of it, but after seeing this thread could he have been off to Terrier country? Just letting you know nothing else to add.
He'd be going from Kings Cross.
Might have bought a cheap advance purchase for the scenic route mind....
If a deal was done why would they wait till Friday to announce it.
Also if it was done no way would Bookies still be doing odds on it, the information would be passed to them and they would close the betting, so no chance has a deal been agreed yet
Why is it Harris from down the road is never in the betting for vacancies?
Done a reasonable but not outstanding job. Not a "big name" either, and I suspect he's seen who'll do a good job at a smaller club with fewer resources, rather than someone to take on a club with money. Phil Parkinson seems to have a similar role in football.
Also, he plays "functional" rather than exciting football and most owners and fans seem to want the latter, after all that was a major reason why Ipswich replaced Big Mick.

If he was going to Yorkshire, it would have been from Kings Cross, I think. Euston heads up to the North West
Euston to Manchester. Manchester to Hudds.
The cheaper option possibly, the Belgian's expenses allowance did not permit the Kings Cross route.

Bloody hope not. That would mean changing at Leeds and they might kidnap him.

Usually wouldn't give bookies managers odds the time of day.. but to add fuel to the fire I saw Lee at New Eltham train station in rush hour. Maybe spent the day in Huddersfield interviewing....
A friend of mine on the train says Lee has signed as player-coach for Birmingham. He said he took this picture of him on the training ground today. I will miss him. Good luck, Lee!

Thing is Hudds have two more years of parachute money so if they stabilise this season then they could have the resources to have a crack at promotion next season. That said of they fuxk it up Bury times could be around the corner. I have no fear of Bowyer going there. He will go when it suites him. Hudds aren't the one.
Bow’s made it clear he wants to be here, he’s worked exceptionally hard to get us the squad we have, trusts these group of players, has a fantastic relationship with the supporters, lives fairly locally, knows the club well. Those are just a few reasons why he will be staying.
Look at when Robinson left, Kewell was odds on favourite, but that was never going to happen. Just because Sky make someone favourite for a job means absolutely nothing. How do you expect they make their money from these kind of bets?
We have a lot of worried fans for some reason. It’s press day tomorrow. Bow will be sitting in front of them answering questions ready for Saturday. Relax.

Get a few bob on him and the player's wives will be delighted.
A bloody good footballer hindered by the testicular cancer that fortunately he overcome.

It's just Meire forgot to sort the visa out.
He's probably paid them to take him off our hands...
