PMason85 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Why the hell did we take Fletcher off? He'd just scored, and we were taking control more and more. When he went off it completely removed our threat in the box. If he HAD to go off, I would've put Winnall on. It made absolutely no sense to me. Unless he was carrying an injury it was a ridiculous decision and imo cost us the game. Oh and Forestieri needs to go. He's not the player he once was and we don't need players that don't want to be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanye West Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Decision that changed the game for me, absolutely ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debram Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Lost it for us, never in the game after, rhodes put on for reputation, gutted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Yorks Owl Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I must admit I was surprised to see Fletch go off. Tbf to FF it's pretty obvious that he's carrying a knock; I guess CC thought it was still worth playing him partially fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinowl Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Agreed. Strange decision an for me one of his best games. Losing wallace was a big blow though early for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howards back Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 For about 5 mins after we scored we looked good then fletcher goes off and went back into our shell again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMOwl72 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Totally agree. He's just scored 5 mins earlier and we bring on a player that at the minute seems to have zero confidence or presence. If the change was essential should have been Winnall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatladfromchap Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 At the time i assumed it was because hudds would push on to find an equaliser and leave a bit of space in behind. Space that Rhodes would better exploit than Fletcher? A lot of bad decisions by management in this tie but im not sure this was one of them.

OxonOwl Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 It was a mistake. Fletch would have been up for another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Fletcher thing I totally agreed But your Forestieri point is ridiculous. Hes been injured for two months FFS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatladfromchap Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Now Nuhiu on instead of a confident penalty taker (Winnall? Jones? Sasso?) Was a truly detrimental decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirocevic Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 He was asking the bench to get him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJMortimer Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 3 minutes ago, mirocevic said: He was asking the bench to get him off. It looked like he was asking them if he was the one getting hooked, rather than wanting them to. I'm not a big fan of his, but unless there was an injury or something, I think substituting him tonight was a significant tactical error for the same reasons described previously in this thread.

Philb125 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Not sure this changed game as much as their best g lad coming on and going wide right. tome after time he exposed us down that side. Not sure how Fletch or Rhodes deal with that, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Totally agree with OP. Seemed to be premeditated. 60 mins Fletch then Rhodes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortlandOwl Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 If he wasn't injured, it cost us a place in the final. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
