what did he do wrong tonight? the whole team were poor in the 1st half. You were shouting for him to be off the field after his 1st touch. If thats you willing to give him a chance??????
Id rather young Bowman be given a go, but Matt has chosen someone with a little more experience & whilst he is a Fax player then i'll support him,rather than give him grief as you have done. Thats really going to want him to play well for us isnt it???

He's on loan for a month, we dont have a game next week. so has little chance to shine.
If it makes me a moron then so be it, but unles he starts playing like the player you say he is why should we want him

| I just cant understand helping a SL club develop a talent when we have a player of our own who should be seeing some game time. If the coach thinks he isnt up to it then send him on loan to a team where he will get some time on the pitch. The lad is 17 and i cant see for the life in me how being sat in the stands is going to help him develop.

| Sounds similar to when he had a spell at Batley. Hemmingway came with same expectations. Unfortunately for me he added nothing apart from he could kick goals for fun. Other than that his defense is worse than woeful similar characteristics to a speed hump and he seemed to just go thru the motions in attack. Not showing any real signs of brilliance.
I remember all the reports about him being the next big thing a few years back. It would seem that hes gone stale and happy to be a star when not injured in the reserves. Mention this on the Giants forum and you will get shot.
There were strong rumors’ that he was heading back to Batley 3 weeks prior to you lot signing him. He obviously saw the ££'s and took the easy route sitting pretty in a winning team.

Seems strange really that he didn't use the 6 weeks for Govins injury as a chance to have a good look at Bowman then. How else is the lad going to gain experience? Plus it's not like he would have the burden of been the only creative player on the field.

It does make you a moron. I agree with you there.
I am not saying you should want him. I am not saying he is good enough for you.
I am saying that calling him crap and shouting abuse at him says nothing about Th or Fax. It tells us plenty about your behaviour and judgement.

My sentiments exactly Brew.
Why the hell do we need to sign a young promising stand off when we already have one.
What a kick in the teeth for young Bowman.

| As I said in previous post he look lost.
Young Bowman has talent and the physique I know he is only 17 but what about Myler and the young Dwarf lad up at Whitehaven?
Whats the point of having players and not playing them and bringing others in on loan?
Certainly need to re-group after last two performances.

It does because it was Calland who brought him in, find out the bus number to Calland's house to tell him to go home

Didn't find touch with a penalty. He needs more time but as he's on loan for only a month and we don't have a game for 2 weeks I can't see him getting another game, especially as Black will be fit.

Remember the eighties? We used to miss touch on a regular basis. It really used to hack me off. THERE IS NO EXCUSE for doing this.

Here, here. I'm sick of hearing idiots slating players from the terraces. It's not going to help confidence. People we can do without.
