Failed Tactic..... Tried and Tested.

Long Throw...

Never worked once in this league... Mozza is Surrounded and there is little support for him from officials.


high time they switch and try to catch teams out with short ones....

The experiment of putting ball in air for Morrison failed as Well., Be far better keeping it away from the goalie ?

Too predictable. We might have had success from it in the early days, not anymore.

Drives me f*cking nuts!

Use it sparingly by all means but EVERY f*cking THROW IN from the 18 yard box is so predictable.

And if it's going to be used aim for somebody other than Morrison for a change. We've got Bamba, Manga and Paterson who can all head the ball but every long throw, every corner, every free kick is aimed at Morrison.

So easy for teams to defend against.

And as somebody said in another thread it seems the main reason Healy was brought on ahead of £20m worth of signings as a sub was because he's got a long throw.

Change it up every now and again. Plain stupidity to persist with a tactic which is a constant failure.

While it doesn't create chances it can create other chances or corners etc. Better than just losing it.

Granted but it keeps a pressure up. A short throw in would gain us what? Probably lose the ball. We are direct. Sadly we don't mix it up.

Short throw in will probably mean ball going back to etheridge !

so you don't want corners or 2nd phase either..waw.

that did happen twice in the spurs game at Wembley { the game we abandoned it } the rest of the time it just resulted in spurs breaking into our half .
but it don't matter coz corners free kicks and generally winning 2nd ball around their area is crap anyway

Not what I'm saying at all.

What I'm saying is mix it up with a few long throws and a few short throws instead of every throw being a long one.

And aim for somebody else from the set pieces every now and then instead of aiming everything at Morrison.

It's like everyone can see it apart from Warnock. We loose possession and position every single time. Park tactics. Do it one in 3 or 4 times catch them by surprise but it's so predictable teams know exactly how to set up for it.

Well don't f*cking loose it them simple. Give the ball to a winger and play footall ffs.

We got a goal directly from it Watford away.

Considering how few goaos we've scored I'd consider it a success.

One goal every 900 attempts not a great success rate though is it?

Take Saturday every corner and free kick was aimed at far post for Morrison! Freekicks came to nothing as delivery was poor and the corners went far post and goalie picked off 99% of them, yet we had a group of our players on pen spot every corner waiting for a ball that never arrived ! Great dummy manoeuvre but pointless.

If we didn’t have a long throw we’d have very little to get the crowd going. As soon as that ball goes out 20 yards inside the opposition half the stadium gets behind the side.

The success rate has dropped dramatically, but you never know. Get the ball into the box however we can!

Exactly, we are a limited team and it is a way of building some pressure and putting the other team on the back foot. If we do lose the ball where is better, in the opponent's penalty box, or on the wing, so they can pass it straight down the line, it makes me laugh the number of experts on here telling Warnock what to do

Is that the only time you can pick out after 5/6 years of doing them?

I remember Rudy scoring a header directly from a throw-in against Forest a few years ago
