So Peacock's sliding mis-kick from two yards wasn't clear cut?

Suppose it was, but it was a mis placed pass Roberts was blatantly trying to slide in Blair who was too shite to get anywhere near it.

Only time we worked the keeper all night though.

i thought we should have been 2-0 up within fifteen minutes, two good balls fizzed across the goal but nobody quite got there.

I did notice that.

In-swingers = all stand on the 'keepers toes

Out-swingers = all stand on the 18 yard line

ifil got on the end of a couple, one was an awesome diving header. i think he could potentially be our most dangerous player at set pieces.

Along with the change in set up we've now got Easton and Aljofree working thier arse's off for the second ball, something I don't remember for a few seasons.

We won't score many from corners if Zaaboub keeps on insisting on hitting the first man's shins...

Lee holmes and an on-form Roberts would be pretty dangerous on the wings. We need somebody to convert the chances though!

I can't see how you can deny Peacock's shot wasn't a clear cut opportunity, I was struggling to see how he didn't tuck it away. And I agree about the corners - apart from one shocking attempt, Roberts had them pretty much spot on and we could see a large percentage of our goals coming from set pieces, and being scored by Jerel  :shock:

When we sign a loan striker, stop starting with boss's son, move Peacock back into the midfield, and when Corr is fit.

Not much to do then....

we wont score many from corners, because well we just dont!

Its all well and good having good winger, but we still need a goal poacher.

One corner flashed right across the goal in the first half, you expect someone to tuck that one away.

i dunno, robbo and hewlett used to do it all the time. the problem was that they usually ran in the wrong direction or lost posession as soon as they won the second ball  :D

oh the glory days
