    I read somewhere there was a question mark over fitness, but might just have been journalistic license. He came off early, but I assumed it was precautionary in a game we'd already won...

    He came off early or they wanted the bench on the field. In recent games a few of the bench have stayed there for 80 minutes, this game they all went on. I think after they realised we'd won the game the substituted everyone to give them some game time and put fresh legs on the field, nothing to do with possible injuries or not being fit to stay on.

    Very true. But its a crying shame when a player gets a serious injury in a game thats already been won. See Cameron Shepherd.

    Knew I had seen it somewhere - "The Force will monitor the fitness of No. 8 Richard Brown after he limped off in the second half."
