Perth fans booed the team off the park

Perth fans booed the team off the park Fowler sat out a game for North Queensland last season when Ferguson - the Fury coach at the time - dropped the former Liverpool great to the bench.

However, the pair made up shortly after and Ferguson was a key figure in luring Fowler to the Glory.

Perth fans booed the team off the park after last week's dismal 3-0 loss to Sydney but Ferguson pleaded for patience ahead of a defining three-game stretch, which will see the eighth-placed Glory play address Central Coast, Melbourne Heart and Wellington Phoenix in the space of eight days.
