Agreed Mickey doesn't have many defensive options but doesn't use his options very well either !
One example being loaning out Mahovo to Boston Utd after him being on the bench twice recently.
Bizarre substitutions changing situations for the worse , seem to be the norm.
With regards to two GK's on the bench , Stone who had travelled to the game in support of team mates , was drafted onto the bench after Chicksen had taken ill during the overnight stay in Bury .
What a waste of money , an overnighter to Accrington indeed. ?
Mickey no doubt asked for the overnighter and obviously didn't forsee such an event of illness.
He didn't have the nous to take Sanderson either and include a striker to warm the bench. .
