His free kicks curling in from the right hand side were hard to defend against, I'm sure the last I remember were Stan getting on the end of one.
Remember a Howard free-kick getting whipped in and Ferenczi headed home, to put us 2-0 up against Blackpool? Went 4th that night if I remember correctly.
RE: Dominik Werling and Grant McCann nt I thought of McCann as I pressed Submit, Werling's free kick's were just Hard and direct. What was the full back called around the season we went upto the Prem that hit the like a rocket?
Neil Thompson? I remember him scoring against Stoke in the promotion season, although not a free kick. What a goal that was! Not sure if it's him you mean but what a player!
RE: NeilThompson? nt he certainly scored a lot of free kicks for Ipswich in the years before. Like the fella below says, class player.
The BEST free kicks were when Gordon Owen used to take them. He had 2 players shielding the ball, with their backs to goal, who moved sideways just as he ran up, giving the keeper no visability until the last second. Scored a few like that - hard and low. Can't understand why teams don't try that these days. (Y)
