The signing of Zohore should have got this bloke the sack

14 goals in the championship for Cardiff. 3 more than Austin

3 less than Grant's 17 for Huddersfield.

Anybody know what Forest and Watford fans thought of Dowling?

Baggies · « **Reply #203 on:** January 10, 2021, 02:59:56 PM »

Wasnâ€™t at Forest long enough. Watford fans generally liked him but his role was effectively a glorified head domestic scout. When you look back at his record, they didnâ€™t sign many of his suggestions as most players came from their Grenada/Udinese network.

Forest were within days of sacking him and couldn't believe their luck when we came in for him.

Did a single one of those players sign for a newly promoted club that was the favourite for relegation? That alone kills the list, which isn't particularly big when you consider it takes in not one summer but several transfer windows.

Maybe Mahrez

Has that been printed somewhere or speculation from forest fans?

Had over 2 weeks since the Leeds debacle to get players incoming.

If Allardyce thought everything was rosy post Liverpool, he had a nasty sharp sharp shock v Leeds and Arsenal days later reinforced it.

To not have players signed in time for Molineux, is shocking in my view.

Go now...please !!!!!

Another one who wants outing , I fully expect nobody to sign before the window shuts .
No clear plan , no structure , no hope .

Baggies · « **Reply #211 on:** January 26, 2021, 09:43:50 PM »

The one thing to hang on to is that with every poor result for Allardyce, the owners (whoever they are) will hopefully lose faith in this very ordinary, bog basic, economy brand DoF.

Thing is he even said he's got 2 lists prepared one for the PL and on a reduced budget for the EFL. If he couldn't afford the PL list go to the EfL one and go long term. Hangs himself.

Way out of his depth on a level second only to Lai

Just look at the team today

Only 2 of the 20 man squad are non-domestic and both were signed by Bilic rather than us.

Our scouting is of league 1 standard at best. This guy is a joke on every level - and to think we had Ashworth

Dowling? Just say... WHO? A total nonentity.

Dexy · « **Reply #215 on:** January 26, 2021, 09:59:23 PM »

If this idiot has anything about him he'll be demanding more funds from the owners right now , he hasn't and he won't.
Next week or so is going to be very painful for Albion fans while Dowling sits there , hugely out of his depth.

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #216 on:** January 26, 2021, 10:00:36 PM »

Just a useless employee.

gazberg · « **Reply #217 on:** January 26, 2021, 10:04:37 PM »

Happy to collect his big salary every month knowing the owner won't change anything. Destroyed the scary staff. Brought no scouting system of any note I can see. A meatsack

Amd to think we all thought it couldn't get worse than Hammond

He set a low bar, and Dowling proceeded to bang his head on it.

A bloke who has his own self importance first.

PUt his head through it as well i think. Sunday league would perplex this bloke.

Dexy · « **Reply #224 on:** January 26, 2021, 10:35:37 PM »

Under his watch we still have Gibbs , Livermore and HRK on very decent contracts . Oh add Matt Phillips to that list too , let that sink in .
Now add Zohore .
