The Premiership sub rules are explained as: 9 on the bench 5 total subs 3 stoppages to sub a player(s) I assume that you may sub coming out of the half, or for an injury, without that counting, but it’s not explicitly covered where I can find it yet. 5 subs is already approved for the League and Challenge Cups, the proposal will be made to the Championship and Leagues One and Two later...it took a 75% yes in the Premiership, no word on the rules for the lower leagues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirscottyyoung told us that the move had been hijacked and inferred that Queens Park were behind it. He can't possibly be wrong, can he? We're still waiting for Trouten too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the same as it's been in England, then you can make the changes at 3 different stoppages, or at half-time. Injuries are irrelevant. It's a ridiculous idea for this division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I have no idea about the situation with the subs but could it be down to also trying to cram in all the cups as well into the season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League Cup is predominantly pre season. Teams in seaside leagues rarely go thaf far in either it or scottish. 5 subs just isnt needed .

WestfieldBairn Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I like the idea of 5 subs. You don’t have to make them all if you don’t want too. It also allows for if you make all 3 subs when chasing the game then you get an injury to make a further sub, providing it’s within the 3 breaks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 5 subs only works if you have 5 players good enough to get on. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if you've made all 5 subs and then you get an injury? Surely we should be demanding 6 subs? Meh - I'd stop all substitutions except for injury and only a maximum of two at that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 3 is fine. You can't specify for injuries only as players would just invent a twinge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d make your normal 3 and keep the other two Incase of injury or red card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the last few decades there has been numerous law changes to the game and yet the passback rule is the only one I can really think of that has actually improved a game that was basically fine as it was. Please stop ruining a once great game. Edited August 2, 2020 by Shadwell Dog 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Don’t like too many subs as it stops the flow of the game. Things are fine as they are just now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I also think it will give us less of an advantage over the part time teams as they'll have more opportunities to change things up when they start getting tired later on in games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigger clubs should have bigger and better squads but the amount of dross we have in ours seriously questions that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
