Football World stunned at Bowyer punishment :

Switzerland 8th January 2003 :

UEFA today stunned the football world by handing out a severe
penalty to England international Lee Bowyer after finding him guilty
of stamping on an opponent during an UEFA cup match. Bowyer has been
banned from European competition for six games and made to sign for
West Ham United. The combination of the six game ban and enforced
transfer to West Ham means effectively Bowyer has been banned from
European football for a minimum of FIFTEEN years.

Bowyer himself is said to be philosophical after finally been caught
on CCTV stamping on a grounded opponent but does admit he is at
least partly to blame as he should have phoned a team mate to come
and pick him up and destroy his boots and socks like he normally
does when he finds himself in these situations ....

Bowyer's contract entitles him to a £1m bonus payment should West
Ham escape relegation, the contract is also believed to include
payments should he find Lord Lucan (£750k), prove the existence of
extra-terrestial life (£500k) or explain why the f##k they paid
several million pound for Titi Camera (£250k).

Meanwhile official West Ham sources would make no comment on rumours
that West Ham are to change their away strip to a white sheet with a
white hood to make Bowyer feel more at home.
