At least it isn't Lincoln    I really thought he'd be off to L1, but clearly Northampton are willing to spend this season.  Will be interesting to see where they end up.

Might be to do with location also. Let’s not jump the gun.

Seems a sideways step but hey ho, good luck to him. He did his job for us.

TBF it'll be less pressure for him in front of smaller crowds at a smaller club.  

Thanks Ben all the best!

Bit gutted about this but trust PH to get someone decent in to replace him. Have to say though, fucking Northampton?!

As I pointed out on another thread...

He only started 22 of our 44 league matches. Of the 22 he started we lost 11 of them. That's 50%. Of the 22 he didn't start we only lost twice (9.09%). I am not suggesting that Fox is responsible for those figures, but it does indicate 2 things. For whatever reason we were better when he wasn't in the team and he couldn't nail down a regular place a promotion challenging National League club.

And remember he got injured at Notts County after coming on as a substitute so it's not even like his injury interrupted his place in the team.

He is a good player. His performances in the 3 play-off games show that. BUT we're heading into L2 and we need better from our midfielders than Fox produced over the course of the whole season.

And if we sign 1 of the 2 midfielders I've been told we've approached Fox would have really struggled to get into our starting XI next season.

Could this open up  a space for Hulls Richie Smallwood perhaps? Being chased by a few clubs but we have some dosh and the location in our favour. I'd hope Hursty has someone with this pedigree lined up to replace Fox.

I agree, excellent in the playoffs but wasn’t always consistent throughout the season as the stats show. I’m sure Hurst will produce another cracking midfielder. UTM!

My guess is that we offered him the wage of a back up midfielder and PH will have targets in mind to strengthen the side.  Why push the boat out for a player who has very limited experience and excelled in a handful of matches
