Corners - both ends

[Jacko51]

I think they should practice a whole variety of different corners. The corner kicker should use discreet signs to let the team know which one to expect. The same should go for free kicks.

 

See post 8 above.

As I say, before my time!

 

Believe me you missed a treat almost unstoppable.

Dean glover was a good pen taker.

So it was Dean that took Teds pen and upset him then?;)

Neil griffths was one of the best never saw him miss one just ran up and put his foot through it goalkeeper no chance.

Dodds scored v Wigan from a corner this season. Simon Mills corners were good too

Yes the old MBE routine.

 

So predictable to fans but so effective.

 

Great set pieces like that are hardly ever used anymore are they.

 

Our corners are shocking and we will never score a direct header from a corner because we simply don't have enough players who will attack the ball. And that's the reason we look vulnerable defending crosses too.

 

I've seen us train many times and all we do is float them in like foley does on match days. Something needs to change.

I had this theory that Neil just hit it and the keeper dived out of the way.

Spot on!He hit the ball harder than any player since John Rowland.

Very sad fact but nothing much to do on a Sunday, just looked on the BBC Sport website, we have had 104 corners so far this season and scored 1 goal against Wigan, not the best ratio.

Jesus that is awful, I had no idea.

We've never been able to score from corners in all the time I've supported us. It must just be a Vale thing.

 

Did you stop supporting during the days of Gareth Griffiths or Sam Collins ?

I'm not surprised I watched us have about 10 against Oldham and we were lucky to win the header let alone get a shot on target, until the 98th minute when we finally attacked the ball.

 

They had two and scored one and had another cleared off the line .

I think that our pitch is to big it seems to suit the away teams better than us just a thought

So our pitch is too big for us but not too big for any other team, give me strength.
