    Is It Only Albion Managers

    That make substitutions no fan can fathom?

    A criticism of Corberan was his substitutions and even in Brunt's short reign I recall decisions that baffled me.

    Didn't understand why Mowbray took both Fellows and Johnston off at Plymouth and Saturday was another where I reckon most of us were left shaking our heads! For 66 mins we dominated the game without much of a goal threat. Then Mowbray replaced Diangana and Grant with Fellows and Johnston which almost 2 a man most of us would have started with. In the next short 15 minutes we took the lead and created a couple decent chances but then without the game won inexplicably took off our main goal threat (I almost choked when the commentator said Wallace would 'stiffen up the midfield.) We spent the last long 15 mins hanging on as for the only bit of the game Wednesday looked like scoring.

    That 15 mins of stress was imo both predictable and unnecessary and imo a direct result of poor substitutions. Is there anyone on here at the game or watching on TV who thought Wallace and Diakite for Armstrong and Mowatt was a good idea? And if we can all see it why can't Albion managers?
