When Pilkington was subbed....

Did anyone see him appear to be ranting and pointing at Slade as he was walking off?
Anyone see / hear anything else?

Yes I saw that.

Probably asking why he was being replaced by a full back after we had just conceded a goal.

Hopefully there is nothing to it.

Exactly, told Slade he is clueless, did the same against wednesday, but Slade was very lucky tonight :thumbup:

Slade just said in his post match interview that Pilks apologized and that it was he wanted to stay on and score the winner.

I seen it as passion, done well since his return :thumbup:

I'd rather see a player get angry for being subbed than not care.

Pilks shows a lot of passion and no little amount of skill. Didn't deserve to be subbed. :bluescarf:

pilks 1 of our best players. cant see why hes persisting with Noone whose doing very little. got plenty of options in Kennedy, Ameobi, Kadeem etc even Fabio. time for Noone to have a rest i believe to give him the kick up the ass he deserves

I wonder if he would have apologised had we not scored the winner

The subbing of Watt was totally baffling. Why not an extra midfielder?

He was dead on his feet. He was hobbling as well.

Malone for Noone on the other hand . Shut up shop then we concede :?: .

When Malone came on we won 1-0? We didn't conceed when Malone came on we scored so hardly a bad sub that one

malone contributed not only to the goal, but the raised tempo that was shown after they scored the second.

good substitution! and good passion from Pilkington :ayatollah:

Because obviously that would mean changing from 4-4-2 :lol:
