Re: Have you seen worse defending? Blackpool
A cracking throw in and well timed run for the first, got lucky with the free kick as he was trying to get it over the wall, the Red Card was harsh and the penalty was a pen but at least the bloke through his body in the way
seen far worse at a higher level

Re: Have you seen worse defending? Blackpool
They let a throw in bounce and then bounce over them, terrible defending. Even my son laughed at how bad they were.Outlaw 2.0 wrote:A cracking throw in and well timed run for the first, got lucky with the free kick as he was trying to get it over the wall, the Red Card was harsh and the penalty was a pen but at least the bloke through his body in the way

Jumping in the wall, terrible defending.
Not really an argument that it was a booking (these days anyway)

Wind took the throw in you can clearly see it move left and right on it's way into the boxGod is an Englishman wrote:

The free kick has nothing to do with jumping the ball snuck through a small gap, got lucky really
If that is a booking then most games these days would end up 7 a side, free kick and stern talking to
I look forward to seeing your Son at the next world cup, or in the audience at the garden of unearthly delights sometime

He's a bit young to be in the next one, 2022 is even probably a bit early, he'd be one of the youngest ever in the England side for that to happen.Outlaw 2.0 wrote:Wind took the throw in you can clearly see it move left and right on it's way into the boxGod is an Englishman wrote:

So, there was a gap in the wall - terrible defending.
It says something when the Millwall supporter is playing down his team and the random is talking us up.
If our C Grade let in goals like the first 2 then they'd be disappointed, let alone a professional team.

Re: Have you seen worse defending? Blackpool
No one is talking you up mate. In summary, we have a gap in the wall... Heaven forbid and a right time right place poachers goal. Keep this up you and the Foxes will be battling it out for top spot soon enough.God is an Englishman wrote:He's a bit young to be in the next one, 2022 is even probably a bit early, he'd be one of the youngest ever in the England side for that to happen.Outlaw 2.0 wrote:Wind took the throw in you can clearly see it move left and right on it's way into the boxGod is an Englishman wrote:

allowing a throw in to bounce all the way through to the strikers head for basically a tap in - terrible defending

Re: Have you seen worse defending? Blackpool
Ive only watched on my phone, but it looks like it goes around the 4th guy in the wall, the 2 other defenders and millwall striker that are blocking the gk's view aren't part of the wall, not sure why both are there as the only thing they are blocking is the actual gk.
The throw in looks bad but the central defender gets rolled by the guy in front just missing it, looks like a turtle neck effort but once it clears his head he has no chance, striker was already on the move from behind defender, god knows what his marker is doing though.
I thought you would have seen enough football to have seen worse than that though, average but not exactly the worst Ive seen.
Wullington gave it a good run on Saturday for Mauks goal.

I refer you back to your post heading....the answer is yes!
the heading doesn't ask "is it terrible defending?"
