Why can't we take a corner like every other club does direct into the box.

Really annoys me these short corners as they are pointless :angry: :angry:

Every time we take a short corner we end up (at best) gaining f*** all in the way of advantage and (at worst) promptly giving away a goal at the other end. Thought with Charlie Oatway being put out to grass we'd seen the last of the always-crap short corner. Apparently not. :nono:

I can't stand the short corner - it needs an inswinger, it might hit anything

I want that trick corner where chippy makes a late run and VOLLEYS it from just outside the box. Just like Deano used to (except maybe Chippy could get one on target...)

I can't stand short corners, but if we kept watto then we wouldn't of be pissed off with them, i think we're missing corners like those from Watto.

The problem this, after BZ left Wattos corners were Shit.....

We do need a corner taker though

I am sure one of our ten outfield players must be able to take a reasonable corner.

If they can't then it needs to be sorted in training - so frustrating.

I thought a couple of the short corners actually worked well - even though I can't stand them normally. Hammond's the biggest threat but he couldn't get away from Page on the normal ones. When we took them short, that just gave him a bit of daylight to get his head on it.

How can we threaten with traditional corners when you look at the size of the 1st half forward line?

Short corners are crap. Just stick to aiming for Butters, Mcshane, or Hammond and results will be much better.

Which is exactly what Micky Adams would have told his defenders. They were being marked by their huge blokes so how on earth can you get a cross to them?
