Re: Shrewsbury Town match thread

fair comment regarding the substitutions and out of position players. Coley gets the plaudits when we are playing well and will take the flak when things aren't going so well.

I still think we have the makings of a reasonably good team here but when you have three or four (out of ten) outfield players in positions they are unaccustomed to then you are going to suffer mistakes. As good as Dean Winnard may or may not be, I'd prefer to have him on the bench breathing down the necks of Edwards and Kempson. Darren seems to have struggled a little in the last game or two and it would be good to have someone putting the pressure on him.

Similarly, we were 2-1 down yesterday with ten minutes to go. We had three attacking options on the bench and could have used two of them. We were already applying the pressure to their backline and two extra pairs of fresh legs could have helped to stretch them, alternatively sub two of the defenders so that we can go gung ho and hope to outrun the inevitable break from Shrewsbury. Substitutions have always been Coleys weak point.
