Some inane ramblings.

1. Disappointed we've reverted to the predictable outswinging corners that bring us little or no sucess.

Does no one have any set piece ideas?

2. As much as i think Diomande is a cracking wee player and has a big future ahead of him, i think the pace of the O. F. game might pass him by. I'd be tempted to play Sterling.

3. Why did kamikaze pilots wear safety helmets?

Outswinging corners allow attacking players far more purchase on their efforts as the ball is coming onto them it's all about movement and aggression when attacking the ball.

J-zer i get that but when's the last time any of our players got a head to it let alone got any purchase on it?

If you mix it up and sometimes put it in on top of the keeper there will be a spill that you can feed off.


Everytime we concede a corner i feel we look vulnerable but conversely we don't look threatening at our corners.

ATHOLE - totally agree
JZER -Little or no success from intended high floated corners that normally don't even clear 1st man - there is no reason why we don't alternate as if you watch Benfica game they fired corners into our front post and on GK with pace and we looked terrified at most (as most opposing teams in SPL do to us - Killie terrorised us with the same) - We have players in Tavs, Barasic and Ridvan who should be hitting inswingers a lot of the time with pace and bet your bottom dollar we would have more success if not from 1st ball from any parry out on second ball. Teams now have dedicated personnel who work on corners and set pieces - wonder if we have the same? It is part of game we need to capitalise on more imo - do any of our stats guys have info on corners as can't remember last headed goal we had from one?

Jo Potter the womens Manager produced a great move from a corner in the recent league Cup Final for Smith Rowe's goal.

Inswingers at pace causes more problems in my opinion.

A regular bugbear of mine, if I was a defender I would happily concede a corner our % success is woeful (&I'm being nice! )
If I was an attacker I know our defence would flap, panic, and my team would probably get a shot/ header away.
It's been obvious for years unfortunately.

That was my point lads, PC is a class manager. Why doesn't he address it? Is it left up to the players to decide?

I reckon good aggressive inswinging corners could easily yield 5 goals a season. Would most agree with that?

That could ewuate to another few points.

And another thing. why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle.
