Richard Horne has kicked a few that i remember. And as ive said, why should we need to practice drop goals, i'd rather they practices tackling after tonights performance and maybe even teach them to meet the man stood next to them cos they passed the ball tonight like they didnt even know each other.

While it's not ideal if our attack, defence, kicking et al hasn't won us the match comfortably with a few minutes to go, the reality is - perfectly illustrated tonight - that the best laid plans don't always come off and we find ourselves in a neck and neck situation.

It is inevitable that some matches will be level with a couple of minutes to go despite our best (or otherwise :lol: ) efforts, and the skill should be there to give us chance to win or draw in these situations.

Why on earth shouldn't this be given practice time? :?

Stand me in front of the posts at training and i'll drop kick a goal, i could do it now with my eyes closed. Richard Horne will do it 100% of the time in training if he had to. He missed one tonight, i would be my house that out of all of his other attempts over the last ten years he has only ever missed a couple. Just an unlucky night.

We should have shipped the ball to our right anyway as we had 5 on 2 making the drop goal irrelevant.

But Hull don't, though, on the pitch. Or very rarely. That's the problem. Guess we'll just have to disagree on this one. :D

Bring back Bob Gaitley to give them some pointers on Dg's, he nailed more than his fair share in his career.
