    Mowatt scored a few free kicks last year but his corners are ****ing awful.

    He still does. Harte would have buried two of the free kicks Mowatt missed against Brighton.

    We need a decent free kick taker and a decent corner taker.

    Did you guys know, we have not scored as a result of a corner all season!

    Fully agree. It's been a problem area for years - and it's not as though we've had a team of midgets all this time.

    The other thing about corners is that we pull everyone back for them. There is absolutely no chance of a breakaway (nearly said goal there, but managed to stop myself). In fact, all we seem to do with this tactic is to invite a second wave attack. We should have an outlet to knock the ball up to. Cook is probably the right man for the job, being a bit of a short arse. :D

    No use blaming Mowatt, he's obviously been told he's the designated set piece taker and is probably wondering why himself

    More of a mystery is why every one of the recognised head coaches we've had continue with something which just doesn't work, hasn't done for years, and never will

    I just don't get it
