Looking forward to 'logical' subs next week

After seeing Eric Black's subs, I am left to wonder exactly what Bruce did whilst here, with Black running training as well as seemingly being the tactical 'brains' behind the partnership.

Putting on Elmo for Ji and eventually Noble for Sess I have no idea why wholesale changes werent made.

It was clear from the 65th minute our team had run out of ideas, Larsson needed to be taken off, as did catts or colback imo and Ji (although sess was knackered)

Vaughan, Noble and McClean should have come on. The latter two both untried but we're so devoid of options it was ridiculous not to even try them when they've been put on the bench.

Hopefully Martin is braver than the two stooges.

I was tearing my hair out when sess came off. He must have discussed it with Nigel spink or someone on the bench and when he suggested bringing off sess at 2-1 down with 5 mins to go why wasn't someone saying something to him ?? It was absolutely mind boggling and I can't believe someone who's spent his life in football could have came to such a decision..

Agreed..... very baffling, especially when you are looking for a goal....
