There is no Plan B

And to be fair to Hughton, a couple of times during the good run, when people were calling for subs, we went and got a goal.

But in my irrelevant opinion, the lack of subs, and any squad rotation is harmful to the side. It is easy for first XI players to get complacent, and squad players lose heart, form, or interest.

        YES (n/m) (NCFC) - Malkybarneedledick, Jan 20, 00:33:43
    - which doesn't show much faith in the players. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 20, 00:20:13
      - but that is clear for all to see, he doesn't rate the squad. (n/m) (NCFC) - Malkybarneedledick, Jan 20, 00:23:49
        
        Agree, he certainly doesn't rate the forwards we have on the bench (NCFC) - RootunTootunHootun, Jan 20, 00:43:21
        
        I like Jackson and One R (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 20, 00:57:09
        
        Which leads to my next point. (NCFC) - Klobo04, Jan 20, 00:27:08
        
        I agree, we have gone from not knowing our arse from our elbow to knowing our elbow from (NCFC) - Malkybarneedledick, Jan 20, 00:31:11
        
        5 tough games in 6; with key players injured. was always going to be tough (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 20, 00:34:16
        
        I admit it has been a tough run (NCFC) - Klobo04, Jan 20, 00:36:30
        
        Our plan B is sign some players so we have options, if not we will stick to Plan A (NCFC) - Malkybarneedledick, Jan 20, 00:41:01
        
        Well, To be fair to E Bennett (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 20, 00:49:30
        
        There is no Plan B (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 20, 00:40:40
        
        It would just be nice to see us mix it up and play 2 up front (NCFC) - Klobo04, Jan 20, 00:49:21
        
        I don't believe that is clear at all. He was exactly the same at Newcastle and Birmingham (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 20, 00:25:33
        
        I don't know if he tinkered and changed the team in fairness, I didn't take any (NCFC) - Malkybarneedledick, Jan 20, 00:28:15
