Yes we have unused players sitting on the bench, but Coley must think we require another defender to rotate the back four and give them a rest. Enough folks thought Darren Kempson had a poor game and should be given a rest at Torquay, who do we bring on in his place, John Mullin? Last Saturday, we were operating with 11 men on the pitch, 2 away in Ireland, 2 on the treatment table which left only 5 subs when we are allowed 7. And one of them was a goalkeeper, not a defender, midfielder or attacker. That is why we need another player or two. And TBH if Chris Turner keeps getting flattened the way he was at Torquay, we will have another casualty. The tackle was akin to the Shawcross/Ramsey tackle except that Turner was lucky to walk away and I believe the tackle was premeditated whereas the one at Stoke did not appear to be.
