A defensive midfielder, right full-back or right wing-back, Bowman was a player who was underrated by many, but not by Dundee United supporters, who will always hold him in high esteem. Bowman was renowned for the toughness of his tackling (he was nicknamed Psycho at United), but this was not his only footballing attribute and his skills saw him play for Scotland, who selected him for their squad that played in the 1992 European Championships, the first occasion that Scotland had qualified for the finals of this championship.
