WHAT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND IS why at 1-0 do you change a successful and settled team by taking of three of the best players of the night when 3 points was essential. Also the second goal (penalty) was due to a brilliant run by Mark Bell and not by any substitution. Any of the original starting team outfield players could have successfully taken the resulting penalty. Saturday was a prime example when City were withstanding the pressure from Fleet and making breakaways, then by substituting 3 important player and unsettling the team momentum, a lazy tackle by one of the substitutes allowed a Fleet player time to shoot, costing City three important points. WHAT I AND OTHER SUPPORTERS DO NOT UNDERSTAND is why change a team when all is going well, especially when there was no tatical benefit. Justin and Fordy are doing an excellent job at City, but sometimes the Supporters are fustrated and need to vent their feeling. THIS DOES NOT MEAN WE ARE BEING DISLOYAL. At least these contributors to the message board attend most home and away games and have done for many years. Let the written abuse flow from the do- gooders after reading this string11
