    Can't find any stats but have we scored any goals from corners? Our set pieces are dismal and I wouldn't mind betting that we've probably scored fewest goals from set pieces. Pinnock and Lindsay go up every time but has either of them scored? Some teams look really dangerous from corners but it looks like we never practice them. If we could have only got 4 or 5 goals from set pieces we'd be running away with the league.

    Pinnock has scored from one at Shrewsbury, where the initial corner was cleared then pumped back in so don't know if that meets your criteria. Lindsay has scored a grand total of 0. Kieffer has bagged a few from set pieces this season, vs Sunderland and Southend from memory.

    Compare that to last time we went up when seemingly every other goal was Winnall/Mawson/Roberts getting on the end of a Hourihane set piece.

    I don’t think we’ve scored from one since Moore’s absence.

    Hourihane was magical with his set pieces but although Mowatt has a fair amount of whip on his crosses, they seem misdirected in the main.

    Not had any joy since we stopped that massive huddle & 'SCATTER!' tactic

    To think we have scored just one league goal from our central defenders is pretty scandalous bearing in mind they’ve made nearly 80 appearances between them .

    Not been the same since Hammil left. Corners was his speciality, always an exciting moment when he had the ball from the corner. Needs to be looked at stendle.

    Crossing in general has been poor of late. Thiam and mowatt barely beat first man and Brown seems to mishit scuff a lot of crosses along the floor and get cut out when better option would have been some flight.

    Shocking at offensive corners and never a threat....excellent in free play and always a threat.

    Funny thing is, when we defend corners, Pinnock or Lindsay invariably win the header yet they rarely get on the end of one in the opposition box.
