Subs

[S63 Owl]

So tonight we could’ve had 9 subs on the bench and had option to make 5 subs. We only had 6 subs, one of which returned today from playing for Northern Ireland last night. 
 

This raises the questions of why not utilise the spare spaces on the bench for some of the youth players and give them the experience of travelling with the first team etc. 
 

Wouldn’t have changed the result but at least gives the younger players some hope of making an appearance.

Good shout, too complicated or sensible for moore to think of though.

Strange that Luongo and Byers didn't start. 
 

Strange that Byers never even came on too.

 

Strange that Adeniran played wing back when he could have gave Shodipo another game to try and get a bit of a run.

 

Strange that he stuck to the 3 at the back meaning even more players out of position.

 

Not so strange that we put that type of performance in though.

Best not go down that road.

What signal does it send to the younger players when we wont even put them on the bench.

This is what the Doncaster fan told us.

 

Sometimes we'll think he's genius, other times we'll struggle to understand etc

Yes as hard in training as the first team. Then on match day use it to put volume in their legs
