Surely one of the Yoofs would have benefitted fro the experience? Under what circumstances was Walton getting on the pitch? For a last minuted corner? |  |

Personally feel that if we were 5 0 ahead but needed to sub a keeper then the new guy would have come on. But if it was 0-0 and we needed a keeper then it would have been Walton. |  |

That makes sense.
And 9 on the bench was always going to cause an issue with certain players only making up the numbers. Perfect for the new guy to fill a space and get him involved in the match day experience. |  |

No real need for Walton to be on the bench, he isn't in PJT games as was usually Nick Hayes pre-injury - they still take 3 for the warm up though.
Albie Armin was there as 21st man which seems a bit pointless for him not to be on bench ahead of Walton |  |

Totally agree.
Walton is clearly by far the best keeper at the club, and one of the best in league one without any question. He's great.
However, Coleman should have been trusted to come on as a sub against Bracknell if required. Funnily enough he's the only keeper at the club with a Premier League appearance to his name.
To see Walton on the bench with him to hold his hand can't do his confidence a great deal of good. |  | | |

I don't think it's that deep tbh. The lad had only signed a few days earlier and has been without a club since the summer, it's good to get him involved and integrate him into the group, but given you're naming a 20 man squad for the fixture there's no harm in taking 3 keepers. |  |

I thought it was pretty obvious - Coleman signed what, 3 days ago? So presumably we were bedding him into our pre-match routine without necessarily planning on playing him if Hladky had got injured. |  |

I don't disagree with that, just think either take an inexperienced 3rd choice - we had Woody Williamson do it for the Derby game who has just turned 16, and Lewis Ridd for the Port Vale game and let Walton have a proper rest.....or name Armin as the 9th sub and let Walton be 21st man | |
