Garyintandem you obviously haven't had you medication this morning.

If you look at this from Bowyers point of view if he did go to Leeds he would probably be offered something more substantial than a 12 month rolling contract and he won't be flying to India every 2 months to explain himself to the big V's.

PLUS the opportunity to guide a big once proud club back into the premier league has to be a draw too big to overlook.

It's easy to turn a rowing boat (Burnley) around, not so easy to turn a Cruise Liner (Rovers) around but it can be done, Leeds on the other hand are a rudderless Supertanker going down fast.

Leeds will need a big name manager not someone still learning their trade like Bowyer.

Idle speculation, nothing more.

BTW, the beauty of a rolling 12 month contract in this respect is that when GB is successful at Rovers he will be able to re-negotiate his contract or walk away with his head held high, straight into another job.

And as he has been in charge for just over 12 months don't you think it's been renewed?

Morning Owd Nick. Now, "rowing boat" and "Cruise Liner" that's your best analogy ever! I draw comfort from us being flee-size super-manouverable based on proven effort. I draw even more comfort from you being a bloated mammoth, slow to manoeuvre, needlers of the "fuel-injection" and eschew all effort because of you being "the great entitled".

Bowyer? If he goes to Leeds, he's truly lost the plot.

'Fuel-Injection' ayyy? How about this one, no analogies needed...

Rovers spending 1994: £25,000,000.00
Same value today: £43,402,500.00

Dingles windfall 2014: £120,000,000.00
Same value in 1994: £69,120,442.37

Guess that means you win the premiership this year eh??
