Jack Robinson's long throw

[Silent Blade]

early in the match at Villa was the first time under Wilder we took a long throw to the box?

The Geordies were right!
He's turning into Pulis!

I wondered something similar at the time. Got the weirdest sense of Warnock-era deja vu when Robinson chucked that one in.

Nice to have that option!

It was our best chance of creating something until Freeman came on, because we had 0 creative spark with that midfield despite how good they all are at passing the ball. Weren’t on it at all.

Who are we throwing it to though?

Didnt Egan almost get his nut on it?

 

[KiwiBlabe]

They quite obviously wanted for Egan to come up

 

[KiwiBlabe]

Eaited

 

[KiwiBlabe]

Haha, fat fingers they waited for Egan. Too much beer today

It doesn’t need to be used that often but as another potential attack option it may have an unsettling effect on an opposition defence.

Pretty sure Kieron Freeman took some short long throws in the league one season. And at Brentford last year too for Leon’s goal.

edit: just watched it and not sure it would count, went a long way but we along the ground into his feet.

Hope Wilder is sitting with a cold Peroni watching Man City struggle with Cheltenham’s long throws.....come back briefly Jack

 

[ancientblade]

although robinson clearly isnt premier league quality he could well be good enough for the championship especially with the long throw weapon maybe we should play him next season and bring madine back

 

[Chabuddy G]

Suggesting playing a player because he can throw the ball quite far... come back Blackwell, all is forgiven

Not saying that it's a good thing or a bad thing, but Delap's long throw was a weapon that helped Stoke, week in, week out, for five years in the Premier League.

Always a good weapon, keep firing them in and you’ll get a bounce at some point.

Our issue is we have no size or physicality, they’ll just mark Egan & McBurnie out the play and we’ve got nothing below that aerially.
