We are going to miss that delivery against Wrexham, that booking MvE picked up was so frustrating.Another goal from the long throw yesterday, Sunderland and Brentford both scored from one yesterday. Becoming much more prevalent in football. It’s not something that ever gets mentioned when talking about MVE but it’s probably adds another £1m to his value?
Particularly as I think they have someone who can also do it !We are going to miss that delivery against Wrexham, that booking MvE picked up was so frustrating.
Hate them as a tactic but I’m not complaining with the results…

Let's bring in a new rule, throw ins must be no longer than 5 meters and must be thrown to feet only.Id bring in a timer for throws like we’ve got now for keepers, it would completely remove the long throw from the game but thats a price worth paying imo.

I hate moving the hoardings as a tactic as well. But it’s effective as a counter-measure.Hate them as a tactic but I’m not complaining with the results…
Ill never understand why long throws are hated so much as a tactic?Hate them as a tactic but I’m not complaining with the results…

I don’t think there’s anything rational about it, it’s just like people who don’t like teams who keep a lot of possession at the back.Ill never understand why long throws are hated so much as a tactic?
Its as good as a cross. Gets it directly in to the mixer. Should we stop putting corners in to the box aswell and take every corner short and try and pass it in to the box? Or are corners ok to put in the box? Its just throw ins that arent? A long throw is no different to any corners or a cross, just from a slightly different angle. I dont get all the hatred for them.

It was so needless. I was expecting him to come off at half time to protect him from another booking.We are going to miss that delivery against Wrexham, that booking MvE picked up was so frustrating.
But the time taken is down to the ref organising and policing players tugging or barging, not for me to argue for or against but I'm not a purist.Id bring in a timer for throws like we’ve got now for keepers, it would completely remove the long throw from the game but thats a price worth paying imo.
Im pretty certain it was, it looked bloody scripted as he did it!I wonder if it was intentional. Rather have him miss the Wrexham game than the ones coming up after?
No different to the right winger trotting over to the left to take a corner, and waiting for all the CHs to trot forward, and stand in a line like the conga, then the corner taker putting his left arm, or his right arm, or both arms, or sometimes the ball, aloft in the air, to signify the ball will go nowhere he plans it to, only to meet the head of the first defender!I don’t think there’s anything rational about it, it’s just like people who don’t like teams who keep a lot of possession at the back.
I find waiting for the throw-in taker to trot over to the touchline (and then towel off the ball, and then organise the players, and then take a big run up etc) to be quite annoying I guess.
Yeah, wasnt quite as long as MVE but he certainly put it in the box. I think Brau has it in his locker aswell.Might have imagined it but didn't KKH do one after he came on yesterday?
It gives us a chance to get a good luck at KKHWe are going to miss that delivery against Wrexham, that booking MvE picked up was so frustrating.
"Arsenal's Riccardo Calafiori was stopped by referee Jarred Gillet from using a towel to dry the ball before taking a throw-in against Newcastle United - but why?I have been watching MVE and his long throws quite a bit recently. He usually tends to want a fresh ball or to wipe it dry with the inside of his shirt. No problem. However, a little training and the supply of some hand towels for the ball boys would ensure he always gets a dry ball, and if they could be 'forgetful' to do the same for the opposition it would be great.
Sometimes football is really daft."Arsenal's Riccardo Calafiori was stopped by referee Jarred Gillet from using a towel to dry the ball before taking a throw-in against Newcastle United - but why?
It's because of the Premier League's rules around the multi-ball system.
Clubs have to agree to the availability of towels around the field of play before the match. If both clubs fail to come to an agreement, towels cannot be used.
As both Newcastle and Arsenal did not agree to the use of towels, the referee could step in to prevent the Italian from using one before taking his throw-in.
However, if the clubs do come to an agreement, players can use towels during matches.
That is why Jefferson Lerma was allowed to use a cloth to dry the ball before the throw-in that led to Crystal Palace's last-minute winner against Liverpool on Saturday."
This is a report by the BBC. I can't see many clubs agreeing to the use of towels unless they too have a long throw specialist. And even then, theyre only benefitting the highest scorers in the league more by doing so.

Why?!
It needn't completely eliminate the tactic, just require people to get on with it in a reasonable time. Depends how long you allow of course, but some of them do seem to take ages, and is that time added on at the end?Id bring in a timer for throws like we’ve got now for keepers, it would completely remove the long throw from the game but thats a price worth paying imo.
Yes good idea lets take away one of our biggest threats as you have a short attention span.Just sick of the time wasting and long throws are boring when you’re up against them. Birmingham the other season when we had to wait for the big lump to wander up and take it each time. Yawn. Throw ins should IMO be more part of the game flow than free kicks. Though I’d also stop not allowing quick free kicks for similar reasons. Basically I like watching football not men in shorts stood about. Like the back pass rule I think it would make the game better.

Yeah nobody has committed an offence they need to be punished for, it's just getting the ball back into play after it's gone out.Throw ins should IMO be more part of the game flow than free kicks.
