Subs : Mon Apr 13, 2009 2:16 pm  

Can anybody explain Kelly's decisions today regarding our subsititutions? Made far too many early on leaving us very tired late on leading to a Barrow come back. At one point they had 5 or 6 subs left and we had one. And why bring two forwards off for 2 others 5 minutes into the second half when they've had a 10 minute break? Basically at the end we were knackered, they were fresh and with silly things like the interception its no wonder their heads were up and ours down. Then to top it off Watto got injured and we lost any sense of direction. I simply can't understand the reasoning or timing behind our substitutions today

I question the bench completely there seems no passion or entusiasm from it at all no fire completely the opposite on opponents benches!!
I want passion Mr Kelly and Mr Rowley?!?!?! i spend a lot of money watching and i want commitment!!

I agree. I sit very near the bench and the atmosphere there resembles a Sunday School picnic. Everyone very relaxed, absolutely no passion at all!

I think it was a combination of 'poor' tactics and bad luck. We lost two players through injuries so that would of gave us three subs for the remaining 15/20 minutes in comparison to the one that we had. For me, Barrow's bench was far stronger than ours and that could of been the telling point as they just worked our forwards all game.

Just ask the players who does all the work Rowley or Kelly.
