| Sub keeper 12:57 - Feb 27 with 456 views | truenorth | Jim’s clearly not too fussed about having a sub keeper on the bench – think you’ve got to go back to October for the last time we saw one. Heaven forbid… but if Oli goes down, who’s pulling the gloves on? TN |  |

| Sub keeper on 13:08 - Feb 27 with 422 views | D_Alien | Oli has "gone down" in each of the last three games, maybe longer than that I believe opposition forwards are told to try and target him without incurring a card, given we have no sub keeper on the bench. One of these days, it'll really, really cost us |  |

Yeah he’s been doing it all season long. Another example of teams across the game manipulating the rules to have a tactical break. It needs sorting so it no longer is allowed to happen. Agree that we are taking too big a risk not having a keeper when we can have seven subs. |  |

I agree about the tactical element involved, but the number of times we've seen forwards leaving a foot in with no real prospect of getting the ball tells another story, and i've no doubt on several occasions he's genuinely taken a knock. One of these days... |  |

I can’t recall an occasion when he’s looked to be injured after making the most of situations. It’s the boy who cried wolf though, one day it’ll happen and nobody will be concerned and we’ll be stuck. It’s also quite amusing there doesn’t seem to be much criticism of the tactic amongst our fans, when in the past we’ve seen much wailing about the opposition breaking up the game doing similar. |  |

Fair point about having no apparent injury afterwards So let's criticise the tactic here, if no-one else has done it. I seem to recall it happening in a recent game about 2 minutes before half time, really not sure what the point of that was, unless he was genuinely injured on that occasion |  |

Which game was it? I doze off when it happens as it’s so tedious! Best way to stop it is to bring in a rule where the players are not allowed within a set distance of the bench when there’s an injury. At the moment, clubs will continue to do it (and we seem to be one of the worst culprits in the games we’ve played) so putting something in place that makes them think twice would help. |  |

Can't recall which game now - they're coming thick and fast, but i distinctly recall thinking "it's nearly half time, why are we doing this?" |  |
