I'm not a fan.
Fox had a part in all four goals.

Lichaj has been SO much worse this season so far, yet Fox is just the easy blame.
I'm not sure it's even a case of scapegoating with people now, on Twitter people seem to just go along with the crowd in blaming Fox. I even asked someone who was ranting against him last night if they even went to the game/listened to it, and their response was "no, but it's bound to be Fox".
Yes he is at fault for a large portion of our defensive errors, but the whole defence is to blame, not just him.

Until we get a bit of intelligence added to our tactical approach I can't see anything changing soon. Other teams are passing us by playing more expansive football. It's sad to see. In true forest style we single out and scapegoat individuals when a cumulative ineffective tactical approach is actually to blame.
The only way we can win with our current set up is if we ride our luck and the opposition don't take their chances and then we rely on individual brilliance to get a result. That system will work in 10% of games and I feel that will be the net result of this season.
Danny Fox is the greatest Left back in the history of this club.
