Subbies

[Attilio]

Why?

For the sake of it?

Harkins was knackered.

They had Kane and Sutton and we're just lumping it up. Jules shored the defence up.

Same for Low brought on to see the game out.

[Frank Grimes]

Pretty much. We stopped attacking after 70 mins. Harkins shouldve been off earlier.

I think it was to play more defensively and protect our lead, waste of bit of time and get a couple of key players involved in the game.

Right subbies IMO. Shored things up

Harkins seemed to be carrying a knock mid way through second half but signalled to bench that he was ok but he did look like he was struggling a bit.

Don't know if I'd go that far. Seemed to unbalance things and invite them onto us, but to be fair I could see why the changes were made.

No harm done either way.

Wrong decision.  The lumps that they brought on were never going to trouble the way we were playing. Changing the formation in an attempt to protect our lead changed the dynamic of the game in the last ten minutes. Had they  scored with the deflection then that could have lead to a nervous finish.

OK cookie, we get it! 

(this double posting thing's a right pain - any way of fixing it chaps?)

That was a shift Harkins put in tonight.

For a bloke with supposed 'fitness issues' he didn't half get around the pitch tonight.  Much like he has done in the games I have seen in the last couple of months.

Hartley reiterated on the radio, after praising Harkins, that his players HAVE to work for him if they want to play.

Great to see GGH responding to PH's management and message in a way he hasn't always for other managers. Long may it continue!
