    Outside the Holy Trinity of Seed, Lawrence and Curbs, it can be argued that Lee Bowyer is the best manager Charlton have ever had.

    Certainly that he's one of the very best young managers, with the best potential to challenge JS, LL & AC as a Charlton Legend.

    But the crooks and swindlers who have dragged CAFC down are probably going to rob fans of the chance of seeing how far Lee Bowyer could take us.
    Well they've robbed us of almost everything else. Why stop now.

    I do not disagree with your opening paragraph
    BUT he needs to carry on the momentum for a few years more to compare with the names mentioned.

    Bow is right up there for me. But I agree with Elfs, he needs a few more seasons.

    Imagine the fun if he had a budget worthy of the name.

    Game 100 on wednesday then. If we can celebrate that with a win, I think that would see us pretty much safe.

    My one criticism is that he seems to be too defence minded.

    A natural reaction, if not the right one.

    Our attacking has been so impotent recently that Bowyer is probably afraid that if we throw more into attacking play Charlton will just be exposed at the back and begin getting thumped by 3 or 4 clear goals, rather than getting draws or just losing by the odd goal.

    We'll see what both Sandgaard and Bowyer are made of in the next 12 months.
    To quote SeriouslyRidiculous, "let's see where we are in August 2021".

    Hopefully Sandgaard will get the deal done and Bowyer can be Sir Lennie mk2

    Yes.
    Lennie did take Grimsby from top of League 1 to the bottom in the space if 4 months so quite possible.
