Substituted last night after coming on as a sub. Don't think he was very happy. Can anyone remember it happening to one of our players because the manager felt the substitution wasn't working?
I'm sure i've seen it happen when we had someone sent off and we then sub'd someone who came on only shortly before - could it have been Swindon last Boxing Day.?

You can understand that and the player should be OK with it, seen this happen many times. But to be subbed when coming on as a sub.................ouch.
OP - I seem to remember a game where Ambrose, who I don't think was fully fit, was brought on, got the goal (maybe assist) that we needed and then was subbed off because he had done his job? Something like that anyway.
Didn't Substitute Carlton Cole get substituted by Curbishley when he was on loan with us?
Yep. He came on as sub for the second half start. Scored a goal quite quickly then walked around uninterested as if his job was done for the day so was rightly subbed.

Think it was last game of the season v Villa when we possibly finished 7th in Prem Curbs told me after that fixture Carlton Coles agent rang him on behalf of Carlton to complain about being subbed , short shrift is the polite way of saying how he dealt with it !
I'd be pleased to hear he'd joined us, really useful impact sub with an eye for goal. Whether there's funds is the big question and is it worth having another body that ain't likely to start any time soon? Several midfielders & strikers ahead of him in the pecking order, he'd be ahead of Green tho'. getting sidetracked - spotted DG's car in the west stand carpark on saturday and I've been grumpy ever since - very ordinary footballers really do earn stupid money...
There is a reason why he didn't get on well at Millwall, I don't think the effort he put in here would have lasted long enough for the ink to dry on a new contract. I could be wrong but, that is the impression I get, they certainly don't rate him.

He was booed as he left the pitch as well.

Anyway, one of their fans measured response to N'Guessan's substitution is this:
"n guesson i hope he gets gang raped by a gang of HIV positive queers"
Can't make it up! That's what they dooo.....

Poor sentence structure...he used 'gang' twice.
