peter-plastic 0 Posted January 4, 2014 lol supposedly you go out on loan to get ''game'' time. With Foxy, it seems to be the other way around, after weeks warming the Barnsley bench. Hope he has a stormer today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nexus_Canary 1,016 Posted January 4, 2014 Does he still actually play for us ?Prime candidate to sell for half a twix in the next window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juggy 0 Posted January 4, 2014 This should be considered his goodbye game then.Great little player, now gutted not to be at Carrow Road to see him one last time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Juggy 0 Posted January 4, 2014 Why do people feel the need to ridicule a player who was an essential component in our promotion to this league, and then to staying in this league.Will always be remembered as a great little player to me and wish him all the best.We won''t get much of a fee because of his contract situation, maybe not even a fee at all, but he was key to Grant Holt''s success in this division and arguably the division below.

Rolf Harris 31 Posted January 4, 2014 shite at Barnsley why not play a youth player instead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Making Plans 936 Posted January 4, 2014 Well at least he can actually pass the ball in the right direction, with the right weight and too a City player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 271 Posted January 4, 2014 once back at the club and fer suspended was inevitable he woudl start - absolutely the right decision to not play the only fit/available cm (BJ) ready for next prem game.not sure where the chances will come from but hopefully will be good for RvW to get more match fitness.Fox remains a decent footballer - but he does need to grab his chance to day; he was a long way from being the worst midfielder against Luton a year ago yet remains the one to blame - just hope its not all a bit of history repeating...

Tetteys Jig 830 Posted January 4, 2014 [quote user="Nexus_Canary"]Does he still actually play for us ?Prime candidate to sell for half a twix in the next window.[/quote]That''d be a profit then! I believe lambert bought him for half a bag of crisps as he quoted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the bristol nest 0 Posted January 4, 2014 He wasn''t dropped at Barnsley, he had mumps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juggy 0 Posted January 4, 2014 They also had a change of manager and he was signed and played by Flitcroft who got sacked in late November.So even if he was dropped and didn''t have mumps.... that happens when new managers with new ideas enter the frame. See: Simon Lappin under Roeder.In fact Fox was dropped by Bothroyd at Colchester before we signed him. Some managers like route one football or two big old lumps in the middle of the park.

the bristol nest 0 Posted January 4, 2014 Sad to say but I always thought that he would get a game today. I hope he does well as I like him but I believe it to be shop window stuff. Lets hope he has a cracker anyway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

can u sit down please 0 Posted January 4, 2014 Best player on th pitch by a country mile. Why he''s been banished for two years completely baffles me. He''s the only player that can dictate the tempo of a game that we have. He kept things ticking over. Best passer of the ball at the club. His treatment has been shocking. Well done foxy!

I''m glad he had a good game - and if you want to play 3 centre mids as when we''ve had all fit Hughton has done - i cannot see why Fox shouldn''t be one of them.
