According to the OS in June "Bowyer has penned a one-year contract extension". Curbs had one year to go when Murray showed him the exit door because he wouldn't commit to a longer deal. Changed days.
There's an interview with Jonny Williams in the Mirror today in which he pays lavish tribute to the way Lee Bowyer has improved his game. Conor Gallagher has paid similar tribute. Over the weekend I've spoken to Brentford and Fulham fans, and they can't believe that Douchatelet has only grudgingly given Bowyer a one-year contract. It's easy to forget what an arsehole Roland is because of the performances on the pitch, but his shadow is always there.
And it’s very obvious from Leeds Twitter who their fans want to replace Bielsa when the time comes (ex player)
Squandering his good fortune in acquiring Bowyer's management ability would be Douchatelet's biggest act of vandalism on our club.
Just gotta hope Leeds keep winning. But now would ne a nice time to offer Bowyer a long contract to secure his services.
Bowyer is now odds-on favourite to get the Udders gig. I can't see it happening. When he goes it will be to a bigger club than them. But it shows how clubs are waking up to the new kid on the block, and although ourowner doesn't appreciate him, the fans know how good he is and it would be devastating to lose him to a rival. I expect him to honour his one-year contract, but after that......................
