Set pieces

[john jako]

Can’t be bothered looking for the stats but I know we conceded lots last season from them. Tapas tits it started under but Frank didn’t seem to rectify it.

Also I know Gordon and co can’t beat the first man with a corner. Hope to see McNeil take some.

Regardless of signing the 12 foot number 6 are we expecting any improvement in this? I still expect us to concede 14+ times from corners?

Also is there a better club than us at celebrating winning a corner?

Merci. Now that's sorted, we'll still be rubbish at set pieces.

….depends on whether you mean defending set-pieces or attacking set-pieces.

i think we’ll be ok with attacking set-pieces & poor defending set-pieces.

Genuinely bothers me how crap we are. Every time someone gets a corner against us I get nervous. Don’t know why we are so bad at them. Losing richi won’t help as he was a good defensive player for these situations.

Was mainly about defending but remembered that Gordon was crap at taking set pieces. Hope they’re left to Gray and McNeil.

I have us down as bad at defending but ok at attacking them

We've been crap at them for ages. Not helped by Pickford being a midget.

I've thought for a while itmight make sense to fill the team with giants so that if we're not the most skillful at least we'd be the best at something (being massive). So that's the solution just get loads of big lads in like Jimmy T and Onana.
