Seven subs. I haven't heard that one before. if true, and without raping their youth teams I doubt if many clubs would be able to assemble 18 players for such fixtures. If you examine our bench it's a lot worse than that. Along with all of us, DG must surely swap words with him up there praying every Saturday afternoon at 2.55 for no injuries.
An eighteen year old keeper and C/F who we assume are no more costly than expenses, Reed and Fairclough are now the extent of our squad, a squad that is almost certainly the smallest not just at level two but for many supporting steps there under.
Seven subs?
We cant name five presently, which don't get me wrong at the moment is fine, but we are already at the stage when all of us will be holding our breath every time a player goes down holding some part of his body or another and simultaneously whispering another prayer that he gets straight up again.
DG has suggested this week that Indy is not for him, so the question of who will come in continues to be a mystery, especially as our bench suggests we need at least two, and as soon as we get an injury, which surely will happen shortly, probably three!
