Yes it is a good thing, allowing 5 subs..

However bearing in mind Jurassic is in charge... Will they be used...if they are do you have confidence they will be useful.

Why the distinction between Campionship & L1 & 2 ?
9 bench players for Ch/ship and 7 for the rest.

Like the salary cap. You've got the premier league and it's feeder league, then the rest. League 1 down, the powers that be don't really give a toss.
 
With the money involved in football now I personally think you should be able to change all 11 starters if you want. But 5 is a start.
 
Don't see the point personally. Five subs was only introduced because players might not have been at peak fitness due to the lockdown. They've been back training and playing for a while now, so they should be fit enough to cope with the normal three subs.

There’s a lot wanting it permanently. Personally I think it’s stupid. It’s a way of the better clubs having more choice to put something right which they got wrong. 3 should be easily enough subs

VAR allowed in the prem with 5 subs from 9, 5 subs from 9 in the championship and 5 from 7 in L1 and L2.

Why does it feel like each division is playing a different sport!?!? :emoticon-0138-think

You're not wrong but in this league we are one of the better clubs. It would benefit us in the short term because our squad is good and the long term because we've got quite a few talented kids who need game time.

Obviously Parky isn't the person to take advantage but with the right manager it'd benefit us and I'll take any advantage.
 
5 subs, sounds like a friendly, load of ****e.

So can teams holding on for a result, potentially make 5 subs in the last few minutes to try and run the clock down, doesn’t sound good for spectators not that it is ever considered these days?
