Some thoughts

I see a lot of people are angry that Gunn decided not to sub anyone at half time. In most cases I would agree, but when we were 5 down, there was in reality no chance of getting back into the game. If he subbed one or two players, he would litteraly blame those one or two players for the failure. Since the squad being so new, psychologically that would possibly be harmful in the long term.

Gunn probably felt that he had to show the players that he has faith in them. It is, of course, a difficult decision. Gunn knew better than anyone that the fans would demand some changes.

If the decision was good or bad remains to be seen. No matter how you look at it - we didn't lose the game because of the decision not to sub players at half time.
