FT: BOURNEMOUTH 1 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[BLUETIT]

That's the whole point. It's not just about wasting time, it's about giving the rest of the team - who've been under constant pressure - a breather.

Besides, it's a pointless risk. If we take a short corner and lose the ball, the 9 other players in our team are still in a good defensive shape. If we send the big boys up and whip the ball in, they have to sprint 60 yards back to chase the potential counter attack.

Is the reward of winning 3-1 bigger than the risk of drawing 2-2? No. So why take it.

Even if you disagree with me, I cannot comprehend how that's "spoilt" one of our best wins of the season for you.

spot on

So you reckon I was the only person shouting "for f ucks sake" at the tele.

It doesn't waste any time and leaves their players further forward up the pitch.

I'll repeat, "when was the last time you witnessed a ref, giving the advantage to the attacking team, at one of these short corners"

I've seen attacking free kicks given after a defender goes in too hard to try and win the ball.

It's a totally rational tactic. Why on earth would you get so het up about it?

I'm not "het up", I just don't like it.

Shouting 'f*cks sake' at the telly, talking about it at length the following day.

Het up is putting it mildly

I only made my opinion known, then I'm being polite and replying to people. So it's people talking about it at length, not me. I'm just being polite.

I think someone has hacked your account Tony, your last seven or eight posts are alarmingly lacking in capital letters
