I've never seen that.

Coyle, Ade, don't know, Thompson (?), Blake (?), don't know, Marney.

Can anyone fill in the blanks and confirm the others?
First one definitely Ade, 3rd from the left is Paterson maybe?

Definitely not Marney, he wasn't signed until summer 2010 by Laws.

They shouldn't be allowed an extra sub. Clearly their player didn't have a concussion.
Can never tell with a concussion as they are not instant, I agree he is unlikely to have one, but pretty sure because he was subbed as a concussion sub it rules him out of Brentford's next game.

Genuine question, why do they get to make a substitution whilst a player is still down injured? He's off the pitch why aren't we playing on?
If the injured player had stayed on he would be off for 30 seconds.

Surely once play resumes the sub should not be allowed into play for 30 seconds.
