Joined Rotherham.

Tried his best but what a bizarre signing.

Not sure it was bizarre. Rather we gave an opportunity to a lower league player and it didn't come off. In an alternate universe David Platt left us after a year for Stockport.

Good luck to him. Just way, way out of his depth. I'm all for taking punts, but taking a punt on a L2 also-ran? No...was never going to amount to anything.
One good display against a half-arsed Hull aside, he looked well out of his depth at this level. A club like Rotherham will be good for him. Championship next season, a good chance for him to try and have an impact at that level.

He was occasionally childishly amusing.

He can show that pic to his kids how he was once lucky to be on a plane with some professional football players who played in a purple kit.

My guess is that Roy Keane saw those clips and had it written into his contract that Bowery would leave the club before his arrival.

He's just about at his level.  Hope he does well for Rotherham, I think he will.

Ha. Kind of wish we'd have kept him now.

Apparently Rotherham have smashed their transfer record to sign him ....

So was over £140k

Yeah, was always a punt, not sure he was better than any of our kids we already had but at least we've contributed to his pension plan.

Villa will regret letting him go. It's Martin Carruthers all over again.

I'll never forget my older mate telling me he'd seen him in Busy Lizzy's on John Bright St dancing really badly in MC Hammer style trousers.
