Have you ever made a positive ****ing post on this board. really? I thought it was Stan Ternent who recommended him.
If this is the case then maybe its better he move's on, maybe its a case he thinks he's better than he is, also find it strange that Marco Silva not been back in for him or has he had a changed of heart after seeing him on a day to day base's .
A Benfica fan says they've uploaded the full game, I haven't tested this but I expect it's all there https://mega.nz/#!s3hFxRLZ!slO1gt_V1thELqOpMS97JTKQjSzY_rUjGdnbhRcExTM
Certainly new, perhaps it was time anyhow for a near refurbishment regardless of if it was forced on us or not.
So how did pennock sign him as we're been pedantic. Did he ask Steve Bruce? Did the Allams sanction the deal?
Steve Bruce signed the first team players, Tony Pennock signed the youth team players, Ehab Allan had to sanction the deals, nothing pedantic about it.
I doubt Bruce had anything at all to do with the Bowen signing and Ternent might well have scouted him, I've no idea, but scouts recommend players, they don't decide who to sign.
If I remember rightly Bruce took on Pennock and got the development in the academy moving forward, so indirectly I guess he had some influence.
Right, so Assem Allam signed Bruce, so indirectly he signed Jarrod Bowen. Getting a bit daft this, Tony Pennock signed Bowen.
Wow. I thought Ehab/Assem micromanaged absolutely everything, and nothing was ever done without their final sanction? Thanks for clearing it up though, I always thought the truth would out.
Just add it to the list of stupid things you thought, like City fans actually wanting to approve everything they do.
Ternent did scout him. He worked for Steve Bruce. He recommended him to Bruce. Steve Bruce got the ball rolling for the academy.
Just watching the highlights posted, similar to last season there does seem to be some harmony, togetherness and smiley faces in the 'nearly a squad' we have... we did get caught ball watching for a ball to the far post again though from which they nearly scored..
