Dean Cox left out...

[The Large One]

Well given I wasn't about tonight I haven't a clue.

I see your point but a winger playing for a winning side should have more than 6 assists by March, would be interested to see his stats from last year.

10 goals, 9 assists.

Leading assist man last season.

10 goals, 9 assists.

Leading assist man last season.

he would be hard pushed not to be - that well known attacking player fraser was the other creative wide outlet

is there any way of finding out what GAMES he got the assists in? would be interesting to see how many of them came in the first half of the season when he was looking like walking away with the player of the season award

 

[Da Man Clay]

Thats from a side that finished 18th and had only 49 goals. Not a bad effort.

 

[Skaville]

I see your point, but it's such a different situation altogether. Genuinely aggrieved player who's not been given the backing of his manager, and left to rot while a clown takes his place v. arrogant twat with inflated sense of importance and talent. I don't think we need to question the character of the first player, but Cox needs to grow up or f*** off.

Did Dean Cox shag your missus or something? You've been on his back forever. You hate him more than you love Michel.

Cox OUT

 

[The Large One]

No, nothing personal whatsoever as I don't know him. I'm just totally pissed off that he a) shows so little talent or commitment week after week, b) has an attitude and ego totally outweighing aforementioned talent or history of success, and c) has played in virtually every game for 18 months presumably because he's Wilkins' lovechild or something. If we released him tomorrow I wouldn't care. Actually, let's change that, I'd be bloody delighted.

I know it's all about opinions.

My opinion is he shouldn't have shagged your missus.

At least we wouldn't then get your diatribes.

amen to that

 

[Zesh Rehman]

Cox OUT

He already is, Wilkins must take note of your posts!

 

[Barnham Seagull]

One man does not make a team.

If Dean thinks otherwise then he should be shown the door.

 

[The Large One]

How very infantile, Alan. That's the sort of argument I used to hear at school. Your first sentence was correct, and you should have stopped there.

You started it...

 

[andybaha]

He must have pissed Wilkins off big time because he is one of three or four players who seem to be in the team every game whether they are playing well or not.

that is so true

 

[Southover Street Seagull]

I just don't agree with some of this stuff about Cox.

For me, on-pitch, he has still been exciting, tenacious and hard-working as any in this team. He runs hard for 90 minutes, and just because he doesn't skin four defenders every time he gets the ball (something some are still demanding) does not mean he is being lazy. We missed him tonight.

Off-pitch is, of course, a different matter.

I disagree he doesn't run hard for 90 minutes and drifts in and out of games, however I thought against Orient on Saturday he had one of his best games for a while and was a little surprised to see him dropped altogther tonight.

Coxs Future Is Under A Cloud (from The Argus)</title>

Cox's future is under a cloud

Dean Cox's Albion future is under a cloud after he was axed from the squad for disciplinary reasons for the second time in three months.

The feisty little playmaker watched Tuesday's 4-2 home win over Gillingham from the North stand.

Cox was punished for the way he acted after being substituted in the second half of Saturday's 1-1 draw against Leyton Orient at Withdean.

Remarks made by Cox about some of his team-mates while sitting on the bench prompted his omission against Gillingham.

Boss Dean Wilkins refused to go into details. He said: "It is a disciplinary issue that will remain in-house."

Asked if Cox will be available for Saturday's trip to Carlisle, Wilkins said: "We'll have to see how we go but at the moment he is not involved."

Cox was dropped from the squad at Swindon in December following a dressing room bust-up in the previous game against Nottingham Forest.

Cox is in the squad for Wednesday's Sussex Senior Cup semi-final for Albion reserves against Lewes at Bognor (7.45pm).

Not good.
