Mister Soul Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 The irony in all this is that it’s probably the stupid people booing Fox as was giving Palmer grief no so long ago . Pathetic people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 To be honest i'd have both in the team. Palmer at RB and Fox at LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'He said they would walk over us, let's make him eat his words' etc. etc.etc. Best course of action is always be respectful of the opposition. It also stops our players taking their foot off the gas because they think it will be an easy game. Even if you are playing the bottom of the leaguye you say it will be a hard game. You don't have to believe it, you still say it. Exactly. Which is why pre-match presentations are mainly a waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) I'd like to see people lay off of fox for say the next 6 games or so and give him an actual run. See if the lad can show consistency, gain confidence and improve. It's a different situation now, bannan on the left would tuck inside all the time and roam, Nando hated coming back and defending too, similar with Palmer on the right with Wallace, so they were always getting exposed with lack of cover. Hunt had the speed most of the time. People said the same about penney been good going forward, but not great defencivly. Maybe our midfield wide players had been partly to blame for this, reach being the exception, but his tackling is weak ?? It may be one of the reasons bully is reluctant to play Nando and prefers Harris as he really does put the yards in both going forward and tracking back, which Nando doesn't like to do.

Take it you’d bring in Thorniley, go three at the back and change the way we set up. Only other option I see is Reach at left back and we know his limitations there.

Swiss Toni Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Both not the worst to ever pull on the shirt by a long stretch. Both a fair way off what’s required though in terms of play-off or promotion contenders long term. There will be times this season where we will be in great positions only to be let down by having a right-footed player at LB (Palmer) and other times when we would benefit having a more attack minded LB (Fox). Still, we are in a far stronger position full-back wise than some this season. The treatment of Fox is completely unfair and counter-productive, especially now Penney has gone out on loan.

gurujuan Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Palmer is the best full back we have, left or right. Fox did OK the other night, whereas Odubajo was again, less than convincing at right back. Palmer and Fox for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will both score for Wednesday this season, but Palmer is more of an attacking threat. Fox will score from a set piece at some point.

Palmer has had 2 decent seasons out of 8 ! Odubajo has by far the better pedigree & has been signed as first choice RB! Lets give him a little longer than 3 games eh?
