[Steve Evans]

what a ball from foxy! :clap:

As previously posted on another thread I got excellent comments on Fox from my Norwich City supporting father-in-law.

I reckon he could be a great signing.

 

[Pettgreen]

Welcome. A Steve McCall type. Oh I really hope so.

 

[Bermudian Green]

He doesn't appear to have tattoos everywhere, which is a good sign. I think the big question about him though is "does he wear black boots?"

That's the mark of a real footballer.

i haven't seen him play but this is the sort of "ernie machin" (older readers please consult grandparents!),senior professional we need.welcome foxy.

If he has anything close to the influence Ernie had we have done very well.

Maybe Adams wants another keeper with a bit more experience (loan?) as cover for Luke, and then send Vincent out on loan to get game time - investing in the future?

Ernie Machin did achieve legendary status in his season and a half with Argyle but, ironically, in the season 1973/4, when he played most of his 70 games (53), we only finished in 17th position in League 3 (third tier).

It was in the following season, 1974/5, after he had left that we were promoted to League 2 in 2nd place.

Having said that, I do recall that he was a fine midfielder and I hope that David Fox will be successful in a similar role at Home Park.

Your stats are correct, but, he was also part of the team that made it to the League Cup semi finals. I was at school when he played for us but head and shoulders above all other Argyle midfielders I've seen only Steve McCall was of a similar quality but Machin had a better engine in my view.

Seems a good experienced addition to a young squad- not quite Steve McCall (my Lord) but of that ilk?

 

[Green55]

Not so much of the grandad! Ernie was good I was thinking of Jonny Mathews, now if foxy can pass and play like him I would be very happy.

Careful, Criticise Luke on here and you're in trouble. Despite how poor he was last season.

Welcome Mr Fox. Best of luck at Argyle.
