Re: George Bowerman.....More Firepower !!
Positive news,
but why is the club website still advertising fans Friday vs Dagenham?
BTW, he does have a reputation from his Walsall days of being lazy and having a bad attitude.
Although some of that may have been him thinking he had made it - his downturn coincided with him signing a pro-deal.
Wouldn't be the first youngster to think he was Gods gift to football.

You really are a glass half empty type aren't you !!! Where did you glean that load of garbage from???
Read the following article from about halfway down......just goes to show Davo that you really do talk from your nether regions......
BBC Sport - Walsall's youthful football winning fans and awards
I particularly noted the following snippets from that article:
Quote: "George is a natural finisher, who will stay out after training for hour after hour, working the keepers," added Smith.
AND
Quote: "There is an infectious enthusiasm and obvious desire to succeed about Bowerman, who was used as an impact player last season but worked hard over the summer to improve his game, putting in extra training sessions and hiring a personal trainer. After training on Thursday he was heading straight to the gym for an extra weights session."
Sounds a lazy so and so doesn't he Davo !!!

Re: George Bowerman.....More Firepower !!
Looks like a good addition.
If he's banged half a dozen in this side of Christmas, then lets extend the deal until summer 2015, otherwise he will just end up being another lost soul we've rescued and then sodded off somewhere else for FA.

Re: George Bowerman.....More Firepower !!
Like the sound of this bloke..as I tell my 'kids' season after season,'You don't have to blast in a goal, simply pass it into the back of the net'.
Welcome GEORGE.

Welcome GEORGE.

On a more cautious note KJ, I hope that the optimism being shared in this thread will not prove to be misplaced, as I am yet to be convinced regarding the quality of one or two of JB's 'stand-out' acquisitions.
However, like everyone else I wish him well and hope that his skills are put to good use !.
