How many instances of "c" are there in:
LEE Bowyer has described as ‘crazy’ the fact he is likely to miss the opening two games of the season due to suspension.
Bowyer was dismissed in Blues’ penultimate Championship match against Preston North End after a clash with Lee Williamson.
He was punished with a three-game ban and sat out one fixture, Blues’ promotion-clinching victory at Reading.
At the time he was on loan from West Ham United, who still had three games to play after Blues’ season had ended in glory at the Madejski Stadium.
However, disciplinary chiefs insist that only Blues games count in the equation so the trip to Manchester United and the St Andrew’s clash against Portsmouth appear off-limits to the midfielder, who signed permanently on Wednesday.
“It’s crazy though,” he shrugged.
“I went back to West Ham and I didn’t play there because I thought I was suspended. They had three games left.
“But the understanding I have is that I have to wait until Birmingham play their first two games. Say I had gone somewhere else this summer, or I had stayed at West Ham, I wouldn’t have been able to play the first two games until Birmingham had got them out of the way.
‘‘It just doesn’t make sense to me.
