  • My take & it's purely guesswork. 

    Bowyer was told some time ago we had to make the playoffs or he would be gone at the end of the season. 

    Birmingham have come in & he's jumped 
    Good call, I think that could be exactly what has happened.
  • Will Jackson leave with him? 
    It's only needs his head, arms and torso to leave the building and he'll be gone too. I mean, his legs have gone already.

    Curbs and Minto joint managers to the end of the season, with Brownie as defensive coach thus ruining the Valley Pass Live coverage!
  • Probably the best case scenario for all involved.

    Now we get to see Thomas’ first real decision as owner.

    Rumour he's gone, think Birmingham.

    I’m hearing Bowyer has gone - said goodbye to players today at Sparrows
    Mine wasn’t a rumour though - although I could have worded it better 🤔
    Isn't everything a rumour until it's officially announced 🤔😂
    My source is impeccable 
  • Good luck to him, wanted to be given one last rebuild but understand his reasons for going, especially if like Gravesend_Addick says he knew he was out if they didn't get in the top six.

    Hope his second stint in the Championship works

    Birmingham though, feels like he's going straight back to instability

    Think Lordflashheart wins the breaking the story line. He definitely did announce that Bowyer did his goodbyes. 

    I imagine it was:
    Bye Jacko
    Bye Marshy
    Bye Basey
    Bye Tracey
    Bye Squad
    Gone.

    Brilliant news if true.

    Hope everyone is happy now
  • Think we just have to write this season off, and spend the time looking for the correct replacement to get out us out of this league

    His first decision is to appoint a caretaker for tomorrow night. Given our situation, his next decision needn't be rushed unless we have somebody of the calibre of Howe or Wilder lined up.

    Thanks for memories of 2019.. always a red but right call. Move onwards and upwards

    Not overly surprised as it's been clear from some of his post-match interviews he's at odds with the players and if he's been in talks with them for a littlew while that might explain some of his post-match comments about the players. I wish him well ... he battled during some dreadful times when it would have been easier to walk, and I'll always be grateful to him for giving the family that amazing day at Wembley in 2019.  His replacement will tell us a lot about Sangaard's ambitions.  If it's Ian Dowie ...

  • I’d imagine the players (most) took it really well.

    Probably the best outcome for the club and Bowyer. I wish him all the best, he's been great for us, it's just gone a bit stale recently.

    he's run his race with us and perhaps has lost the confidence of players and the owner .. a new start with (possibly) fresh players and fresh ideas at Brum ? .. remember that Brum are a division above us, albeit they are in serious relegation trouble

    Agree with this. I think it's best for all parties, glad he leaves on his own terms and not sacked. But i think it's been obvious for months we need freshening up.
