Normally the defensive subs would take place around the 60th minute
After the first couple of seasons, bringing in players like Stockley and Cosgrove you knew the long ball was the default setting and really was poor fare. Just because we won more than lost, it was grim.
While I wouldn’t want any of the 3 back at Pittodrie, he knew how to beat the other also-rans in the league hence the 3rd or 4th place in a poor league
