Popular Post MacBoyd 5,441 Posted March 14 Popular Post Share Posted March 14 What the fuck was that. Surely a team so poor of them would want someone back to get the inevitable clearance to restart the attack? From defensive point of view its inexplicable. Yilmaz needs taken off them his deliveries are appallingĀ cstamomusa, BLUEDIGNITY, Rangers_no1 and 10 others 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkylineBlue 23,372 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 No idea what we were doing setting up defensively in that way. I'm surprised they only capitalised on it once tbh. BlueVanguard 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueVanguard 6,627 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 We have sucked at Corners for years now. Surely to fuck its something we should be looking at especially with the physical side and size of some of our players.

JackAlex93 11,280 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Left ourselves wide open on a number of occasions at corners. McCoist was bewildered by it on commentaryĀ BlueboyG and ayrshireranger 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

demise 3,517 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 We dont hit corners well and even if we did, we are not a threat and we barely manage to even make an attempt on goal from set pieces. Needs adressed as soon as possible.Ā Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malkytfp1 18,594 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 What's worse for me is why we persist with these outswinging aimless corners. Under Gerrard we had a plan with them. Aribo to the front post and flicking it on. We don't seem to work on them.Ā We played a game a few weeks ago against someone and put in about 4 or 5 dangerous inswinging corners and have just reverted back. I don't get excited when we get a corner. demise, crazy bob swollenbaws, GA1972 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esquire8 42,762 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Overloaded in the hope of getting a goal from one of them. Certainly never really looked like scoring from open play.Ā Got caught properly once and it cost us. That's it.

SeparateEntityMyļ»æArse 53,728 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Been shite offensively at corners for ages. Being shite defensively with our own corners and encouraging pacey teams to easily counter attack us s a whole new level of fucking dross by us.

Master_Betty 340 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Early 90s is the last time we looked dangerous from corners. It's not a new problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven33jackie 1,920 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Considering about 80 % of our corners are won by the defenders and cleared. It was strange to commit the entire team forward and not set up to defend the counter.Ā For years we have been poor from corners and at times it feels like the importance of them is lost on the team. five stars and crazy bob swollenbaws 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacky Bear 868 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I know but when there is warnings self fix it on the park. More so when our set prices were gash. Also have we again reverted to all outswingers, never been a fan of. Mixing it up yes but inswingers surely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA1972 9,556 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The only justification for the out swingers is that youāre not having to switch the full backs for a passage of play if you lose it off the cornerĀ Feel like thatās a pointless dilemma if youāre just going to have no one back if you lose itĀ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 34,535 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Fuck knows what we were doing at corners. Left ourselves completely exposed on the counter. Clearly a tactical choice, but a strange one. Didnāt work.Ā Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
