How many corners??????

[dannyriding]

I lost count of the chances that we threw away from the set plays a corner provides and when I say threw away I mean we didnt capitolise on their frailties in defence. Hopefully CK will bring on our secret weapon of Bodders to rip their defence apart.

In all fairness, in that run of corners towards the end, Wealdstone nearly won it for us 3 times.

All the corners were superbly delivered by Dan Stubbs Well done Dan

How much are we gonna miss curtis in this game and or/if we can bring Bodders back what are our chances of bringing home the result???

[Wellsie]

Curtis was very good today and will be a big miss on Tuesday.

Funny how we see things different.

 

I thought the wealdstone defence (and keeper ) were very solid throughout-,and as much as we had a number of corners-the wealdstone defenece coped admirably-and frankly-i think it is more of a case of credit to their defending at the death-rather than our poor finishing.

 

Yes-DS's set plays were pretty good ( i remember being lamblasted on here when i dared to say Bodkins were very average),but whilst delivered to the right spot-they did 'loop' a bit.

Would a fiercer /harder delivery have enabled the likes of Cloke and robinson to run onto and attack the ball-as opposed to waiting for it to come to them-making it easier to defend ?

 

Why does Pooley not go forward for set plays ?

[Coffin Ender]

As long as the corner beats the first defender that's all you can ask for at this level. Players haven't got hours to spend on the training pitch to practice Beckham-style whipped-in deliveries.

[michael]

I sort of agree-but at the same time-have seen us concede goals at set plays where the opposing team really 'attack' the delivery-with up to three guys running onto the ball;with two peeling away at the last second- ;as opposed to waiting for the ball to arrive

[Cookie]

Absolutely agree Michael.

If you had Cloke,Avery and Robinson running full pelt together like exocets from the edge of the 18 yard box towards the 6 yard box to attack the ball,-that would be pretty scary;with two pulling away,leaving one to get their head to the ball and head it into the corner;i'm not sure too many defences would cope.
