However other than last night I can't really remember many times we have conceeded from a corner.
We agreed on this a while back mate, thing that riled me most was 2nd half they had a number of corners where we defended exactly the same.
Collison stood on the edge of the box with not a single City player within 10 yards of him, to rub it in Noble on a couple of occasions ordered their left back Taylor to go short to bluff a short corner pulling 2 of our players out to create more space when the corner was crossed long.
They were taking the piss, we could see it, why could't Malky?
They took it a step further on a couple of occasions leaving Cole up against Darcy & Taylor when we had corners, the golden rule says 1 up occupies 2 and 2 up occupies 3. As stated above this really is poor tactics and West Ham had/have us Sussex, we need to change out strategy a kids side wouldn't defend using this method!
