But hes under contract for a few more days That's the key. He's in the squad as you say as he's still contracted and all things being equal WOULD feature and be in the managers plans. Where's Nando etc clearly don't feature regardless of the fact they're still contracted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspector Lestrade Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 1 minute ago, Nero said: I think he is keeping his options open. If we offered him lower wages he is right to do this too. He might end up signing for us anyway if the uncertainty continues or income levels are going to rise quickly and we decide we can afford it. I dont think Fox's actions mean he isn't interested in playing for us anymore. Unlike some others... I agree, but it leaves a sour taste if he's watching the club struggle, but he's not helping out till he gets what he wants. I do appreciate where he is coming from as well, but you know what I mean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possibly no falling out, just wants to chance his arm elsewhere. Where as you can detect from Monks tone that "some" players didn't come back as they should have, eg Nando and they aren't in his long term plans. I'd imagine it's amicable between him, the club & Fox. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive advantage to Bristol City if having to travel on the Sunday for a 12:00 kick off. Monk said they would be travelling down today. 2 coaches to maintain social distancing and they have sourced a hotel.

Lawrie Madden Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 1 hour ago, Bouncing Owl said: He’s rejected the short term contract but professional enough to be in the squad. Ive no problem with Fox, on low wages compared to the rest and always gives 100%. If he's rejected a contract then he's mad to risk injury Its a difficult situation for players that for me is just another reason why this rump to the season is farcical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weshallovercome Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 1 hour ago, Holmowl said: Fletcher wasn’t perfect but never gave less than 100%. Plus, the cameras caught him pull-up wincing. If I was going to feign injury I'd do a bit of wincing as well........you have to have a calculated plan to get 2 weeks off or it looks like you're swinging the lead. Just talking from personnel experience, not saying Fletcher was doing that, but lasting 2 minutes after refusing to sign a contract extension does make one wonder.

Fletcher with his injury record really would be crackers to risk any injury if he's looking for another club 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sternlad Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Although Wickham and Nuhiu are both on the “large unit” side of things they lack mobility and sharpness around the box. Ideally I’d like to see Wickham and Windass as a pairing, is Windass injured? (Can’t remember if I read that on here somewhere last week). It’ll be an interesting game tomorrow and is usually a fixture where we get something points wise. Late goal from Wee Bazza to win it or tie it?

Aye Reyt, just checked back and Windass is out for at least three games with calf injury. Soz, can’t keep up any more...oo er missus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

31Dec1966 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 2 hours ago, Bouncing Owl said: Yorkshire post was reporting that he was offered less than the current £8k pw that he’s currently on. Personally, if this is the case, he will leave. There will be a club in the championship who will offer him £10k pw even in the current climate. Personally, I’d keep him. Basic going forward but a vastly underrated defender. He’s decent in my opinion. I disagree about going forward. he's the only player who looks to cross as soon as he can. And he's one of the best in our team at crossing the ball. £8,000 a week is over £400,000 a year though, an astonishing salary for an average footballer at an under achieving second tier club. I know it may be the going rate but he's not worth any more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
