We were always in pretty much complete control and were rarely troubled anywhere on the pitch, making an unnecessary change could have unsettled us and done more harm than good.I don't recall watching a match where not a single sub was made before. Is it as odd as I think or does it happen fairly often?
I thought Palmer would get some minutes last night but we didn't change a thing
Nah, always better to players on a hat-trick on the pitch.We were always in pretty much complete control and were rarely troubled anywhere on the pitch, making an unnecessary change could have unsettled us and done more harm than good.
That said, I was surprised he didn’t take O’hare off after his 2nd goal.
Yeah I get that, but it’s still early days for him after a long time out with injury, so just thought he’d take him off as a precautionary measure, another big game Wednesday night as well.Nah, always better to players on a hat-trick on the pitch.
Although it wasn't ferocious, there was a certain pace and tenacity to last nights game.I don't recall watching a match where not a single sub was made before. Is it as odd as I think or does it happen fairly often?

Telling that we never had a recognised (in any form) striker on the bench last night but when you have a bloke who previously couldn't hit a banjo with a barn door weighted down by a pig's arse and who ends up with a brace - Who needs a 'strong' squad?Got praise at the time because we were controlling the game. Don’t think the squad is anywhere near as strong as is made out though. 5 of the 9 subs were keeper and defenders and you don’t mess with the defence when you’re winning. That left Kelly, Eccles, Palmer and Ayari. No one’s upset Ayari didn’t get on. It doesn’t leave much to change in reality.
This year surely?Didn’t it happen against Birmingham last year too?
You use subs for many different reasonsBringing a sub on was totally not needed, we were in control and a sub could of unsettled us
Last night was a game looking at the bench where one was not needed, tell me who you think should of gone off and replaced by who?You use subs for many different reasons
One being to give rest to players or to give time to players to build up their match fitness
