[Albion] ******** Brighton U21s thread ********

Strange post from the Sussex County FA - "date and venue TBA". Is the final not at the Amex then?

Concussion sub?

Surely a sub can only be deemed a concussion sub when it's one of your allotted quota? Not as an EXTRA sub when you've made them all already?

Albion have just made their 4th sub (in 4 different "windows") - didn't know that was allowed.

I’ve only been following the game on here but if Couchane was one of those replaced it could have been under concussion protocols which doesn’t effect the number of substitutions or windows used. The other team get another sub to use as well.

Charity Shield 1910?

My post was just to correct TB's blunder, not to identify missing trophies. Talking of which...

[Football] - Where is the 3rd Division South championship trophy?

Technically we are still the holders, winning it at the final attempt in 1958 after playing in every season of that competition. I'm pretty sure that if we had been allowed to retain it then I would have heard about it by now. Maybe the two trophies were just reallocated to the newly formed...

Albion had already used their three windows though before the Chouchane sub was made. I wasn't aware the concussion protocol was still available to a team that had already made use of all their permitted windows.

Any referees on here who can shed any light?

Ifab rules state “ A ‘concussion substitution’ may be made regardless of the number of substitutes already used.”

Well, every day's a school day.

I'm surprised as this would seem to encourage teams, who have already made the maximum number of subs (or used all their windows), in the case of getting a further player injured, trying to designate said player as having a head injury to allow them to be subbed under the concussion protocol.

Come on lads, this is shit, it’s a cup semifinal not a testimonial.

edit: all over well done Horsham

Yep, best team won. Better display by Albion in 2nd half, but gave the ball away too much and overall didn’t create many chances

The reverse is teams keeping a potentially concussed player on the pitch rather than going down to 10 men.

As the decision over a concussion is normally made by a club doctor there would be professional ethic protocols that would prevent them from just saying a player had a head injury to get an extra substitution. I doubt many doctors would risk their job or entire future career and reputation on something like that.

It’s also been in place a few seasons, with the various trials, and we haven’t seen any clubs resorting to those sort of tactics.
