Also in the last few games Heskey has been playing poor

    If you were expecting Heskey to have the passing range of Ono or del Piero, you're out of your mind. And the claim of in last few games Heskey has been playing poorly is wrong. Against Nix, he helped salvage a point for us with the goal, and last week he somehow managed to head Zad's corner back to Griff so he could have the shot which won us the penalty.

    Heskey has been great for us, and and as good as Griff is, he isn't anywhere near as good as Heskey in the air. Plus Griff can't play centre back.

    He can pass with the best of them. We seldom see it though because the mini bus of a manager we have has trouble putting into place the style of football that so commonly dribbles out of his mouth.

    Only problem I have with the big heskey is from our corners, he always stands next to the keeper or behind him and I can't remember too many balls in being won by him. I'd simply like to see him start on the 18 and run and jump for a nicely whipped in ball. It's probably on managers orders that his standing on the keeper, we are too one-dimensional from corners, set the beast free

    +1;
    If you just want to annoy the keeper, send a midget, that's what I used to do, can't do much else at 5'7"

    + 2 Heskey should be trying to get on the corner not waiting for a ball to fall in the 6 yard box.

    Put Zads in there instead.

    1 The keeper may get sent for decking him
    2 Zads shouldn't be able to put it over the bar from that range

    Stick him on the spot, and put it in hard. If the keeper wants it he better make sure he gets it.

    Might help if any blokes on our team can get a corner anywhere near the box.
    Dead set we are shite at the delivery part let alone attacking it once we're there.
    Have we scored any from a corner at all this year?

    Ah yes, well played. Wonder who put those corners in?
    Remember Tiagos celebration.
    Those were the days.
    Cheers.

    Sick of the crap this guy gets, we should all be ****ing glad hes here because of the amount of effort this guy puts in each week, its not his fault we refuse to play into his feet, look at some of the goals he has scored, would Taggart have smacked home that Volley against Sydney? i don't think so. The toe poke against WSW, would taggart have had enough strength to get in front of the defender? i dont think so, who rescued a point against pheonix for us? Heskey did.

    Love ya Big Man

    Interesting interview Emile has done. Speaks nicely of the league, town and the club.
