Been watching Room 101 recently and I thought of something I'd like to put in
there - not beating the first defender from a corner.
On Saturday we got a corner, we bring Smith on as quickly as we can to try and
exploit the situation, and Warnock didn't even manage to loft the ball past the
firs
That was exactly my thoughts - cannot remember precisely what I shouted at the
TV but with the expletives taken out it was something along the lines of 'we
have just brought on the big lad, why have you hit the first man - what was the
point of taking a near post corner like that' ?
I agree it
The problem with throw ins is more symptomatic of our poor movement.
Players make going-through-the-motions runs and moves for the thrower
rather than really working to get into space or open up space for the
teammates through their movement (with the exception of McCormack and to an
extent Stewart
I find it frustrating watching players hitting aimless long balls down field
when under no pressure - Peltier in particular. Quite often there is a short
easy pass on. You are asking a lot of our short forward line to do anything
with service like that. I think smith is limited as a footballer b
And not only that, half our throw-ins don't even go to feet. Drives me
mad a player can't throw a ball 5 yards to feet instead managing to
put the ball on their team-mates belly or chest.

Do you think our team can tell the difference between Hunt & Smith? It would
appear not because the delivery to the front two did not change when either
were on the pitch. Long, aimless punts. To be fair Hunt did his best but where
is the coaching and tactics in this?
MOT blindly.
Agree mate. I would just sack any player on the spot who couldn't beat the
first man. We wouldn't miss Warnock.

Hi Paula, been away for a week and catching up on all the emails from the
list and saw your news on Steve. As with others on the list, I've never met
Steve but know from his many posts on the list that two things motivate him
in life, Leeds and you. There is hardly an email from him to the list whe
poor corners, poor throw-ins...these are set pieces and reflect once AGAIN on
our manager and coaching staff!!! As do aimless long balls punted out of the
back.
Cheers
