Guest UTO90 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Why did we give him a new 2 year deal ? See he missed the game tonight with an injury. Yes its only pre - season, but this lad spends half the season injured. I was at Swindon away last December for his first game back after injury. 60 minutes gone and hes off injured again and we dont see him for weeks. Just think we can do without players like this. You could put ur house on him being injured at least twice next season. Not what we need ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) Utter rubbish, he played a good 30 league games last season and if you knew anything he is probably one of our best and most versatile defenders. We are lucky to have signed him on a two year deal considering many thought he would be a championship player next season. Megson himself praised him and said he is of championship standard.

Guest UTO90 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 He's had a lot of injuries youl find. I personally don't rate him, gives alot of stupid fouls away, poor on the ball technically, and for a defender he doesn't like a tackle. football is a game of opinions though so we shall agree to disagree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he put his body on the line for us at times last season and got stuck in and generally been the most improved player in his time here. Of course it's about opinions mate, so we shall see how he does next year. Edited July 13, 2011 by OwlTheEnchanter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you are completely incorrect about Buxton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sheff Owl Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Buxton was one of our best players last season and fully deserved a starting place each week. Also and fully deserved a new contract and i'm glad he signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rica Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 He has been one of our best players since he had been here. A solid defender who can play across the back line. Why on earth wouldn't we want to keep him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRADDAZ Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 He hardly missed a game in his first year andhalf with us. Then had a couple of niggling injuries last season, but still managed to play 30 odd games. He was also excellent last season, including at left back. So basically you're wrong.

Guest pac-man Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) Season hasnt even started and the Buxton haters appear. Technically the best defender at the club Edited July 13, 2011 by pac-man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 a defender who can play right back, left back and centre back, and perform well in all three. our best defender last year. can tackle, gets forward, composed on the ball and never shirks a header. misses a nothing game against some russians in pre season, and this appears. the mentality of some wednesday fans is ridiculous at times.

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) He's played 90 times in his 2 and a half years at the club, so averaging 30+ games a season. Nowt wrong with that. Edited July 13, 2011 by oh_weds_we_love_you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BirdonaMaguire Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 He was our best and most consistent defender last season. He picked up to thigh/hamstring injuries sadly which cost him and us. Oh and if you think he's "injury prone" I cannot wait for your thread on Rob Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrbuk Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 According to OS, Rob Jones was the only ansentee last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even his Mum I bet. He's very good for League One though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
