    Not being a critic, we are top of the league, unbeaten in god knows how many games, I picked this up on OTIB and am curious at Cotts methology..

    What do you think.?

    it always bothers me when players have less than 15-20 mins to play...be honest...by the time you get on the pitch "tactical" not via injury, you need say maybe 5 mins to settle in? and the rest of the team to readjust to your way of playing, no one plays the same, similar maybe!

    but for 70 mins you have passed to the "player" knowing he should be getting to or in that area, but the sub may be a yard or 2 slower/faster and etc etc interesting to see how many goals we have lost after subs in last 10 mins!

    there is only 3 instances that were " unfortunate" or just plain lazy or stupid !


    Walsall sub @83 minutes in less than 2 mins conceded a goal and 2 points!

    Fleetwood sub @ 83 then @88 goal a minute later 89 mins, conceded 2 points then sub@90 mins

    Rochdale goal @ 56 mins and a single sub 2 mins later !
    Didn't check our clean sheets as we won anyway!
