Musn't Grumble Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Fox had a good game yesterday. Solid at the back and got down the wing a few times, making a few decent crosses. Ok, we were playing against ten men and the extra width was not to Preston's liking but you have got to think that Jos was maybe asking players to do stuff that they were either not capable of doing or were not in their best role.

He is a terrible footballer who is simply way out of his depth and I'm hoping the new manager will see this on day 1. I have no idea why Pudil or Penney are not at left back Not sure Pudil is any better these days, although still a decent option in a back 3. Based on more recent Penney performances, plenty of development required before he's a regular starter for me. Fox had a decent game yesterday and shirt is his to lose in my opinion - not exactly an embarrassment of riches at full back on either side.

Flying V Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Booing isn't the right thing to do, very childish in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pudil came on and played better against Rotherham than Fox had....I think Pudil is a better player than Fox....simply my opinion, I never boo Owls players....I do have an opinion about who plays tho'..Mine is Pudil instead of Fox...I mean, I prefer Hector to Van aken...wouldn't Boo Van aken tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roaminowl Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) I'm so old, I can remember when we used to boo the opponent's players. Edited December 23, 2018 by roaminowl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Even Pudil with his knackered pace is a better left back option than Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really couldn't argue too much if Pudil was selected ahead of Fox, but don't think he (Fox) is as bad as some suggest (and booing of him or any Owls player is totally out of order).

SiJ Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Not sure Pudil has the legs now to operate at left back. The Daniel Pudil of three years ago is probably as good a left back as you get at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.. Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Don't agree with it, bang out of order, cheer and support the team before and during the game as much as you can, it's well known that helps the players perform. If you have to boo the performance of the team do it after the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westfield Owl Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Booing players for not being good enough is a pretty stupid thing to do. Its hardly going to do much for a player’s confidence. Which will probably make them play worst. Anyone that booed Fox yesterday isn’t a Wednesday fan I want to associate with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 It's like the most dumbest of self fulfilling prophecies. I don't rate Fox, so I'll boo him in order to knock his confidence. Fox then makes a mistake or has a meh performance and these knobbers will go *I told you so.* 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannofan Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Probably the normal knuckle draggers that disgrace the club at away games as well. Just like any club, the idiots are on the rise and making going to the game more unpleasant season on season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a star of the future Here's hoping - agree left back is his best position, but after a great start his performance levels dropped off significantly. That's partly why I think Fox deserves to start, for now at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it did Thorniley any favours asking him to play at left back either, but at least he looked like he was giving it 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
