Why the hell can we not make any use of set pieces. Free kicks we have no idea - last night cramb wasted one, rodgers hit the wall and then fitzpatrick put one over in the last couple of minutes - wasting free kicks has happend all season. granted we aint goin to score of every one but we should at least be testing the keeper and not how strong their wall is
Corners are rubbish as well - o'connor has trouble beating the first man 9 times out of 10. only one decent corner last night and that was from rodgers. you deliver a half decent ball into the area and you have ridler, darby, tinson etc who will put it away (well at least get somewhere near it)
not a set piece as such but how many times did we give the ball away from our own throw ins? far two many is the answer.

Have to agree this is a very important part of our game that we are very poor at. When did we last score a goal direct from a free kick, how often do our players get headers in on goal from corners? The answer to both is almost never!

The last time we scored direct from a free kick was against Scarborough not long ago, but before that it would have been against Cambridge in pre season. Our sucess rate from corners is terrible and has been for a couple of years now at least.

The fact that Luke, Ryan, Colin and Fitz one each suggested to me that perhaps we hadn't done much work on fre-kicks......

With regards to corners, we very rarely beat the first man especially last night. Luke scored direct from a free kick for the England non league team up at Darlo, why doesnt he take a few.
Tactics what the hell are they?

Which begs the question, what do we do in training? Free kicks, corners, crossing, shooting and wide play (except Sammy) are all areas in drastic need of attention and have been for more than just this season.
