I doubt it will have been many times.

We seem to get a lot of injuries and the manager has definitely opted for a large squad with a high number of players able to cover more than one position on the notion that that's what it takes to see through a Championship season.

Unfortunately, in our case at least, that necessarily involves dumbing down on quality at the expense of having one or two, particularly in midfield, who can control and / or create match-winning moments.

If Tomlin doesn't play tonight - home, against struggling opposition - then he might as well pack his bags.
