In 46 games a year. Maybe 5 corners a game. So from 100 corners about 0.5 goals scored per corner. Think you need to check your maths that means a goal scored from every other corner taken I'd take that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottsRam77 Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 I think it's safe to say regardless of opinion we're well below the national average over the last few seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimeram Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Every time he took a free kick or corner...left side or right side, it did not matter, it was often a goal or a very near miss. The best crosser of a ball I have ever seen. Two footed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimeram Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Hinton knew how to do it. This shower should watch a few old videos of him. They might pick up a few tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dont score from corners I remember one disputed corner we won when, everyone around me thought it should have been a goal kick. I actually turned to the person next to me and said "doesn't matter, it'll go straight to the keeper". I think you can guess what happened next. Later I said if we get another corner I'm going to take it. I couldn't have done much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Sheriff Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hendrick scored about 15 mins ago from a corner. Can't ever remember him doing that for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 if 6% get goals, that's a shade over 1 in 20. if you're attacking lots you might get 10 corners in a match. you might reasonably expect a goal from a corner every few matches, a significant contribution, if you're completely average at em. obviously, some teams focus on this because it's something they feel they get good percentages from, some teams just don't bother and get less.

jono Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Apart from direct free kicks in shooting range we are awful in set pieces and that goes back a LONG time prior to NP arriving throwins ..gawd we are so static and never help the thrower out who is usually to slow to do anything anyway ! corners .. Straight to the goalie or not past the first defender. balls whipped in from wide free kicks ? Well I would use the word whip, more like and underarm dolly goal kicks .. Naaaa just boot it .. There's a 50/50 chance we might come out with it now I am a happy clapper ( 1st class with bars ) but jees lads if we could do something positive then set piece homework would be high up the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottsRam77 Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 Not saying he should be getting in but am I right in thinking Hanson is meant to be rather nifty with a dead ball, seem to recall he put a few in with interest when given the chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is keen to play the ball quickly, he is tough and has a sense of urgency. Not the finished article but he is very adaptable as a player both defensively and going forward. Not quite sure why he seems to have slipped down the pecking order a place or two ? I'd like to see him with Hughes in the middle of the park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
