Is he a thug, footballer or just an animal?

His behaviour on and off the pitch is something that worries me, I'm begging to think that maybe he needs a long ban and a hash fine to make him realise he isn't above the law and just because things don't go his way he can't act like a kid!
What do you make of him and his behaviour?

Well, anyone who thinks and says such things is a disgrace to the human race in my book.
Combine that with his elbowing, stamping on faces and other dirty fouls and I think you can say he's a disgrace to football as well.
I know they say football and politics shouldn't be mixed, but when you have a convicted racist playing Premiership football (not to mention wearing the England jersey) you're not sending out a very nice message. So much for 'Let's kick racism out of football'.
Like I say what he gets up to of the pitch is his buisness, it was no different to Tony Adams and his drink driving conviction. I judge footballers on ability, not personality. Secondly, whilst I don't find stamping on somebodies head acceptable, I do still love seeing a nutter in the middle of the park letting the opposition know he is there. Its part of the game I love, you can't beat it when some poncy Italian goes dancing down the wing only to be clattered by some giant, usless, full back, it always recieves a roar of approval from the fans.
2. Persoanlly i am not happy at his behaviour towards Leeds - he has treated then badly!... always giving bad names as this thread suggests BUT YES HE IS A GREAT PLAYER! and hasnt really been treated very well himself!
3. He was found innocent and TWATS who insist on saying that he is guilty should face it and see that he is innocent. People are always quick to judge!...
...4. like they are when they hear 'sad playground rumours' like the sun etc! the nacdonalds incident how the hell can anyone prove it???? even our 'hero' david beckham has rumours spread about him but people are like 'ooh DAVID! WE LUV YOUR ASS TO CARE!'
5. Grow up and realise that not all you see or hear is the truth! im not saying he is an angel and i dont know why i am sticking up for him as he is not perfect and he is a traitor to leeds! BUT he is innocent and a bloody great player!
2. This great player, who doesn't seem to be wanted by anyone else these days. Not since he shat on Liverpool.
3. He was found NOT GUILTY, this doesn't mean that he is innocent. Simply that there was insufficient evidence to secure a conviction. Look at his character and his past record and I think you get a better picture than the one that the verdict gives you.
4. The McDonalds incident is just one of many. Are they all rumours?
Yet it still looks as though it is an attemp to jump out of the way of the guy!
I know the way he shat on leeds too!
Shut up and put up with it! NOT GUILTY! means not guilty!
how do you know this tabloid papers OR eye whitness experiences????
You should know by now being a man u fan that your team cough keane cough aint perfect!!!!
Sounds like a stamp to me. I've seen it from hundreds of angles and I think it's at least an attempt at a stamp. So do 2 of my mates that are Leeds fans
He is great player. I was at the England vs Portugal game and he, along with Gerrard, was outstanding. I'd be happy to see him playing at Villa Park every week but it's almost certainly not worth with all the off the field stuff along with incidents like this.
Bowyer DID receive a conviction for the McDonalds incident. But clearly he's innocent in your eyes and always will (or for as long as he's wearing a Leeds shirt presumably).
If you really cared about your club you'd be more concerned about Leeds employing the services of racists, thugs and other nasty pieces of work than giving such players blanket protection.
Happy Xmas
Devil, quite how you can claim Bowyer didn't mean to stamp on his head I don't know, especially as he admitted it, its a lost cause your chasing there.
