Undoubtedly.
But it shouldn’t. Brown and Obeiro was the first change, wasn’t it? I like both, shouldn’t have been an issue, how do you account for both having stinkers?
Agree but the problems with some of the subs are the knock ons and the players still left out there.
Bringing on Brown pushed out best player to right back, Gailbraith who is wasted there but also isn’t the best defender- a strange move in a game you need to see out.
Couple that with leaving Perkins out there to act as cover for Ethan, someone inexperienced and lacking game time meant that they walked through our right side for their goal.
Agree the problem was with shifting Galbraith out.
But a midfield of Ball, Brown and Obeiro should have been more than enough to see out a 2-0 lead and a game we had total control of.
For what it’s worth, I would have left Cooper out there and taken Ethan off just to give him a breather.

The players now should be fitter and have more technical ability, they’re also playing on far better pitches, of course they should be able to last a whole game.
The players are fitter than they ever have been. They get through more work than they ever have done. That’s why you need substitutions.
Absolute rubbish. Have you ever played football?
No.

Brown must be injured or something, as he came on and looked like he could barely lift his legs.
