Stevie_J Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I seem to recall that Dowie walked away from Oldham when it suited him - Is that the level of commitment that we want from our new manager? I'm not sure I understand why we should begrudge him having moved to a Championship club? We don't take that view with players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I seem to recall that Dowie walked away from Oldham when it suited him - Is that the level of commitment that we want from our new manager? The MEN: The Northern Ireland international left shortly before Corney and his two business partners took over and rescued the club from financial disaster in 2004 and ended up in dispute with the new owners over the terms of his departure. But it is understood Corney bears no malice towards Dowie who took the club into the play-offs, albeit with a healthy budget. A rarely-wrong MEN - it was actually 2003.

bigfatjoe1 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 My memory of Dowie is that he stood up against M***e and then stood by the club until it's future was secured. He planted rocking horse :censored: with a handful of pros and a few kids. Despite this, he laid the foundations for our very unlikely survival that season. Once safe, he moved to a bigger club in a higher league for what i assume was a lot more money.I think he had more than earned the right to move on. I'd welcome him back.
