Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
Weird timing early pre season but that club is an absolute basket case. John Eustace to replace him apparently.

Re: Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
I read this a while ago but there was nothing official from Birmingham. Apparently took training this morning and they sacked him. No signings, 12 players, Laurence Bassini hovering for a takeover. Complete mess of a club.

Re: Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
Can remember Gary Rowett taking Birmingham from 20th to 10th about 8 years ago , with absolutely zero funds. He got them playing decent football and they then sacked him. Ever since they have tried to emulate Watford in the way they dispense with their managers

Re: Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
Birmingham one of those big city clubs who've fallen on hard times, and what decent manager would want that gig.

Didn’t they sack Rowett because they found out he was applying for other jobs?warksclaret wrote: ↑Sat Jul 02, 2022 3:41 pmCan remember Gary Rowett taking Birmingham from 20th to 10th about 8 years ago , with absolutely zero funds.

Re: Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
I think Bowyer has been trying to get sacked from there for a while.
They won't resign with the payoffs they receive.

Re: Dyche to Birmingham
I have a feeling we wont see SD joining a club side for a while, however a coaching role with one of the England teams might be more likely, having previously worked in such a role. He also strikes me as an FA type of guy

John Eustace has got/is getting the job.
Re: Dyche to Birmingham
I think Dyche needs to reestablish his somewhat unfair reputation as a long ball merchant before he gets anywhere near the England set up.warksclaret wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 5:40 pmI have a feeling we wont see SD joining a club side for a while, however a coaching role with one of the England teams might be more likely, having previously worked in such a role.

A good run at a club playing the football we did when we had Defour and Ward would get him back on the pedestal he once had.

Re: Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
Dyche will get a prem job in January time when a bottom 6 team hits the panic button, he will keep them up get sacked 18 months later when the fans turn on him for shite football be back again somewhere else the following January rinse and repeat

Re: Birmingham sack Lee Bowyer
Well said sir. I am Birmingham born and support the club. I am though also a claret through marriage to a Brierfield lass.
Having first watched Blues in the 1960s seen them get promoted to the old first division in the early 70s and then again to the PL after beating Norwich at Cardiff in the early 2000s that anthem always stirs my emotions.
But in more recent times I’ve become a Burnley season ticket holder, attend as many away matches as I can including Athens and Istanbul and it’s going to be mighty difficult when Blues come to TM. My wife asked me the other day who I would support on the day. Hand on heart, that’s so difficult but guess I’d have to say Birmingham but then Burnley to win the league!

Re: Dyche to Birmingham
Clubs are not falling over themselves to appoint our ex manager are they,I find it strange he hasn't had a sniff of a job yet....or is he being canny and waiting for the sack race to begin,I think the West Brom job is nailed on for Dyche about 8 games in.

Re: Dyche to Birmingham
There is absolutely no way he would have had an interest in going into a club that's in the sort of turmoil Birmingham are.

Re: Dyche to Birmingham
It's in the middle of a takeover - club is a car crash. I don't think anyone knows who's making the decisions but to sack a manager now seems more than illogical given it is because of last season's form. We all knew who was getting the job even before Bowyer was sacked.
