Are we being whooshed here?
You can have three occasions during the match to bring on subs - with an additional 'free' opportunity at half-time. So, in effect, half-time 'doesn't count' as an occasion during the match. It's not 'four' opportunities - because if you don't make a change at half-time you can't then use four more occasions, only three.
Not deliberately, no.
I think it's 3 opportunities max, even if one of them is at half time. But even if you also get 1 at half time, that's not what changes it from 3 subs to 5, that's the case anyway.
PS - you do get free subs after full time, and at half time during extra time.
You are allowed 3 substitution windows - that is where you stop the game to make a sub. Half time isn’t counted as one of those windows because the game isn’t being stopped. So if you include half time, you can bring on players upto 4 times.
That doesn’t change the number of subs, you are only allowed 5 across all the windows. That’s only changed if one is a concussion sub.
I wonder if @Han Solo is watching...We’re on first on MOTD2.
Potter in the studio.

On March of the Day 2 explaining how we turned this match around and reduced Ange to an apologetic wreck it would seem.What's Potter up to these days?

Yeah I mean... nothing is less interesting than hearing the opinions of a manager or player in between clubs. Possibly only worse hearing people like Neville, Keane, Carragher, Shearer and others who don't understand football well enough to work at the highest level. I'm thinking "MOTD" is filled with both those kind of people and that there's nothing to learn from watching it.No worries, I've saved you the effort.
Brilliant! Was that intended? So nice to see him in the seats behind the dugout today.On March of the Day 2 explaining how we turned this match around and reduced Ange to an apologetic wreck it would seem.
