Early life

Dave Bowman was born in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England on 10 March 1964.[1] He is the son of Scottish footballer Andy Bowman, formerly of Chelsea and Heart of Midlothian (Hearts), who was playing for Tonbridge at the time of his son's birth.[2] The family subsequently moved to Edinburgh, where Dave grew up. He played youth football for Salvesen Boys Club before signing for his father's former club, Hearts, in June 1980.

Club career

Bowman started his senior career with Hearts, making 116 league appearances before leaving in 1984.[3] He moved to Coventry City for two seasons where he was joined by Jim McInally, signing from Nottingham Forest. They left together in 1986, joining Dundee United for a combined £140,000 transfer fee and reached the 1987 UEFA Cup Final in their first season there. En route United beat Barcelona home and away in the quarter-finals and then eliminated Borussia Mönchengladbach in the semi-finals. They lost 2–1 on aggregate in the final against IFK Göteborg.

Bowman and McInally played in three losing Dundee United Scottish Cup final teams. These were in 1987 to St Mirren, 1988 to Celtic and in the 1991 final to Motherwell in which Bowman scored. They collected winners' medals from the 1994 Scottish Cup Final against Rangers. Bowman is ranked tenth on United's all-time appearance list.[4]

Bowman spent the latter part of his playing career at Raith Rovers, Hong Kong club Yee Hope and finally Forfar Athletic. While at Forfar he received a Scottish record seven-game suspension, imposed for swearing at the match officials.[5]

International career

Bowman made six full international appearances for Scotland between March 1992 and September 1993. He was part of Scotland's UEFA Euro 1992 finals squad, but was not selected for any of his team's three games.[6]

Coaching career

As Forfar were a part-time club, Bowman was able to join the coaching staff at Dundee United, where he continued to serve the club until he left following Craig Brewster's appointment as manager in 2006. After a brief spell as a pundit for BBC Radio Scotland's Sportsound programme, he returned to coaching when old friend John Robertson invited him to be his assistant at Livingston.[7] Following his spell in Livingston, Bowman moved to Dens Park to work alongside Gordon Wallace as youth coach. In October 2007, Bowman returned to Tannadice for a third time, accepting an invitation as community coach.[8]

On 28 September 2015, Bowman took temporary charge of Dundee United's first-team squad in the wake of manager Jackie McNamara's departure from the club.[9]
