A new manager,but we still cant score from corners. What the hell is wrong?...MON please come back and show them. Someone suggested the the last time we converted straight off wi a header was Big Billy against Vodjvodina..its that bad...We are up against teams that sit in,who time waste in the first half, who defend desperately,who if football had just been invented would finish it as a Spectator sport...but set pieces corners , free kicks they should result in a goal now and again...but we don't ever really do anything...why don't we work on these things..it's obvious we don't.
Why cant we score from corners?

You're dead right, tic. There are precious few goals coming from anywhere.
True! ...but maybe bring back Charlie Mulgrew..I hear he,s doin a Charlie Tully

With the size of big Ajer, he should be up for every corner and every corner should be aimed at that glorious napper of his. Boom.
I love the big fella but he tends to kick and head over the bar...which is a tad unfortunate on the big lad but he needs to KEEP THE HIGH BAWS LOW...if you get ma drift

Our big physical players are pretty much marking themselves at set-pieces because they're so close together.
You have to break the lines at set pieces, one big man hitting the back post, one hitting the front, then one late runner hitting the penalty spot.
Everything is jammed up and it's a dawdle to defend against.

In fairness mon had lubo to take the corners with Sutton Larsson hartson Bobo big dolf. Numerous options.
We struggle to get a good ball in. Griff is badly missed for corners. Someone also pointed out a while back, on this forum our sideline throws are as bad as the corners, where we only win about a quarter of them.

Great at hitting a dead ball, Frank, but he was a decent threat in the air too.......there's the dilemma. Do you get the likes of CM to provide the delivery or the knockout blow?
Nice dilemma to have though.
I agree with what you say..we can see the problems..but nothing changes ...it's just such a waste...we should get something ...it's so frustrating.
From what I heard he,s scoring direct from corners...twice ,I think....as Charlie Tully

Please no.... Charlie mulgrew??? That would be a serious backward step. I'll never forgive him for walking off the pitch and later claimed he was injured.
