SpiritofBurnden Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 there's more risk playing sides several levels lower - their players aren't at the same speed of thought or action That comment might make sense if he'd done him with a piece of sublime skill and then been hacked in two for his troubles, rather than say, shinning the ball in his general direction and then charging after it in an attempt to retrieve it.

Nothing whatever to do with the challenge by the Newport player then .......... fair enough.
royal white Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I am gutted like most, but it could have just as easily happened against another prem side, just need to crack on and stop moaning
Traf Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 I am gutted like most, but it could have just as easily happened against another prem side, just need to crack on and stop moaning Spot on. Injuries are part & parcel of the game. That's why you need a 25-man squad.
RUREADY2ROLL Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Spot on. Injuries are part & parcel of the game. That's why you need a 25-man squad. Agree but its no use having 11 who can hack it and 14 who are not up to the standard.

Traf Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Agree but its no use having 11 who can hack it and 14 who are not up to the standard. Or go to PL games with 4 subs?
BOWTUN BAKED Posted August 1, 2011 Posted August 1, 2011 Or go to PL games with 4 subs? Which is fine IMO, you can only make 3 subs anyway Having 7 subs is bloody ridiculous in my eyes, yes it gives you added options for the substitutions but it's a game of 11-v-11, having 7 subs is only there so the big money, big clubs don't lose to lesser or poorer financial clubs because of a twist of fate that may or may not occur in 90 minutes, therefore strenghtening their position further as big money, big clubs. it's getting less about the game and more about the money but that's another arguement, sorry.... moving on
