Subs again we got away with it on the left hand side, but swapping Toal with Iredale is not the answer

But on this occasion literally was the answer. It worked.

This GK decision It’s been dealt with rarely do keepers get injured…and regarding centre backs none of the others were fit. 

Yeah, it's all about marginal gains

If we had a centre half fit, I feel sure they'd have been a substitute instead of Dan

Kelman had Iredale on toast. Thank God the manager rectified the situation with a bold move and stopped it.

We were getting overran in midfield too and he sorted that.

We were having no luck down the right and he sorted that.

Some in-game management...who'd ave thunked it eh

Yeah but if we had had a goalkeeper on the bench .......... 

Early days, COYWM!

Who are these mystery Centre backs who could've gone on the bench?

 

And why on fucking gods green earth does it matter 

If Dion buries his sitter and the ref gives their lad the red he probably deserved we could win comfortably. 

It certainly wasn’t perfect today but I thought it was a decent performance. When they closed off Sheehan we didn’t just play keep ball between the centre backs. Our forwards and wide players were making good runs and we found them with some threatening longer balls. Collins, Schon, McAtee and Matete all look good. And that Baxter save was something else. 3 points. Job done.

I love Dion but the fact he misses so many like that is probably why he's in division 3.

Can get sent off though.

Given today's restrictions because of injuries, just don't get it- Dan was never getting on, baring some dramatic injuries.

Evatt has explained it a million times tbf.

He accepts the risk of the keeper for the 1 game in a hundreds that to have extra options on the bench. In one off games like play offs, he thinks risk is too high so tends to have a keeper on there. 
 

Do I agree ? Probably not but he has explained why he does it

Cos folk have nailed thrir colours to the mast

Great result. That save by Baxter near the end was amazing. 

Come On You Whites!!!

Just a thought, but i think he scores that after 10, 15 minutes

It was just at the time we sub him, I think

You just come round

 

apart from the first 15 and last 20 minutes we were easily second best , Baxter saved us , to me nothing had changed , their manager pushed the non existent  midfield duo out of the game , same old baxter to santos /toal and hoof , lost the ball every single time , looks like great strength in depth but how many are going to be happy playing the last 20 minuites ?

Baxter has been injured and has had to come off each of his last 3 seasons...........Forrester is fit played two pre-season games got a knock, but returned to play in the B team last week.

Yes we got away with it today mainly due to Baxter

Hang about... 

The subs won us the game , with a centre half and a goal keeper on there who knows who misses out? 
 

We won so why complain about the subs, if we kept one back and conceded what people say then ?

Evatt as a manager takes decisions and there's always some risk there, but saying we got it wrong is frankly amazing. Swapping Toal for Iredale worked as we did not concede. 
 

Was it perfect ? No, but why not talk about the positives ? 

Baxter won us the game.... And yes the subs got us the goal....Great result and we move on but it is only my opinion at times Evatt makes a rod for his own back. 3 points more than we got last season and plenty of positives.

48 minutes ago, masi 51 said:

Credit to him in some ways but he still takes risks we do not need to make ie no keeper or Centre back on the bench

Subs again we got away with it on the left hand side, but swapping Toal with Iredale is not the answer and  why oh why did he use all the substitutions........ffs keep one back

Baxter, Santos and the New Hungerian lad excellent.........Vic, Mcatee, and Matete changed it for us last 30

Baxter awesome MOM

Surely it would have been easier to just type Schon?

Must've watched a different game to me. 

Baxter MOM a win is a win always tough the first away game .
