We get a free kick in the opponents half then break our necks to take it as quickly as possible - fucking sideways or back I lost count how many times we were under pressure today from our own free kicks in the opposition half it's fucking wank, an opportunity to play the ball forward into or around the box which is exactly what almost every team we play does but not us.
Then we have corners it certainly doesn't look like anyone practices them we must be the worst set piece team in all 4 divisions we really are that wank.
Gouranga.

It was bad enough in our relegation season from the prem. It seems to have steadily got worse. At least we're shit and we know we are! I've said it before, and will say it again, it is nothing short of a disgrace!

We seem to think that a free kick is just a way to restart play. Once in each half we had a chance to set up an attack or put the ball in the box, but on both occasions, we just tapped it backwards to get play back underway. What do they actually practice in training?

Grammar's a bit off yeah - well spotted eagle eyed-oaties  Doesn't detract from the OP's point though. Why do we value knocking it about at the back over creating a goal scoring opportunity? We hoof it up the rest of the fucking time... |

And if a thread title is gibberish there are many who won't even bother to open it and read the post Otherwise why do most people actually try to make their thread titles readable? I bet when you start a thread you try to make the title a) relevant to the point you are trying to make and b) readable. |

Mick - I always used to be amazed at the world as seen by Old Stokie aged 105 and 3 quarters. I can see it is as left field as ever. I can't argue with your logic. But not being able to argue with it does not mean you are right, it just means I don't have the intellectual weapons in my armory to win. Don't let this go to your head.  |

Tom Ince took the worst corner today since Charlie Adam tripped over and handballed a corner at Burnley.
As for Sam Clucas’ corners 🤦🏼♂️.

Then we have corners it certainly doesn't look like anyone practices them we must be the worst set piece team in all 4 divisions we really are that wank. Gouranga. Am I right in saying Williams header verse Norwich, was the first off a corner this season? Could be wrong but we have been poor from set pieces! |

Last one was Bruno last season I think. 2 defenders scored last week. Jones is a fraud for me. Afobe is crap but he has no service |
