[Albion] Long throws

[bWize]

I seem to remember Stoke using it as a huge advantage about 20 years ago...

Maybe we don't need anyone of our players to get on the end of it...

Keeper should’ve just left that for a goal kick.

Talking on site the other day some one mentioned why is Stoke possibly the hardest Management position in the championship. Not one can get a tune out of them.

Our first goal against Chelsea would beg to differ

Keepers could barely kick beyond the half way line in the 70s, then the ball would get stuck in the mud

 

[Sea Cider]

This is incredible. I think I'd struggle to get the ball out of the area

And probably half of the throw ins we take are foul throws, but at PL level both refs and linos are lax on calling them.

I would agree that policing the foul throw-in has become as dead as the Latin language.

I think I read somewhere that they only give foul throws if they are seeking to gain an advantage, unless it’s so obvious

Wasn't there some thought on eliminating the throw-in totally? Using a free kick from "touch?"

Probably. Why do they have to keep tinkering with the rules, like ball in the corner segment, pass back from kick off?

Never really understood the reason for the 6 yard box (you only needed a line until the new rules on goal kicks came in).

My mate who watches Brentford told me recently that they have a new first team player that launches the longest throw he's ever seen.
I can't remember the players name, which isn't very helpful.

Is his first name Chuck?
