IMHO the substitution of Luke cost us a lot more than Copps did. Had no one in midfield at all, lost all service to the strikers and allowed Pools to dictate the game from that moment on. Final point Grant yet again offered nothing, and id like to have a look at Rodney if I was Fergie, he looked quality.
It's about time this was ironed out.1) Copps does get knackered towards the end, so him staying on means a rapidly decreasing positive input, and more likely to pick up a career ending injury2) Old crocs need to not push themselves to stand a chance of staying in the game. It'll have been a decision by Copps to ask to be taken off early to prolong his career. Note how it's almost exactly the same time each match.If you disagree, go ask him.It seems very obvious from the words you have used (it'll have been a decision by Copps) that you are guessing your assumptions.Did you ask him if it is true?
Me personally, I would have taken Marquis off, just like he should have been taken off in the last game against Exeter, ineffective and looked bored, I could be wrong here but I don't think he's had a shot on target in his last 3/4 games.
He will be akin to Mc Sheffrey I think

More like pissed off at what is happening in midfield and having to carry Williams and May, in the Mansfield game he was as far back as half way line to get the ball and then had to go up with it and expected to score, there certainly been a different team out there since Grimsby 5 - 1 mauling without a doubt. He is here for another year and says he wants to stay.
