Colunga in the last few minutes at Wolves

Gets the ball inside their half with just the centre half to beat.

A confident player would have taken on the centre half particularly with Colunga's pace. But instead he held it up and waited for JFC to join him and gve him the ball.

Typified everything that is wrong with our team at the moment. Poorly recruited players who are badly lacking in confidence. I actually thought he looked an okay player at the start of the season but seems to have gone backwards.

Bringing the bloke on with 5 minutes to go and 1-0 up surprised me.

When I heard Bent was going off I assumed he was bringing on Hughes with a "repel all boarders" approach ... for me that substitution cost us almost as much as the red card

I agree should have been Hughes and shut up shop hitting row z whenever needed. Having said that with the incident in question either CMS or Baldock would have taken on the defender I think even Bent would have.

Bent was doing an excellent job holding the ball and worrying the defenders. Lightweight Colunga came on and fell over a lot amd the defenders had an easy time. Totally useless substition which could have cost 2 points

Another inspired Burke signing - load of shite

That's because he isn't a hold the ball up type of player.

We would have been better off bringing on Hughes not Colunga
