We could have conceded four goals from corners so far today...this needs sorting out and has done for some time. Why do we look so weak in this area? It's getting to the point where we need to avoid conceding corners full stop.... |  | | |  |

To be fair, Hussey has been consistently putting them in dangerous areas. In contrast, when we've had a corner they've been shite. | | | |

Playing OK. Still in it. Could easily be three down. | | | |

It's hugely frustrating as we don't deserve to be going in at half time losing, but just keep shooting ourselves in the foot. Anyone have any stats for how many we have conceded from set plays this season? We are giving ourselves a mountain to climb each time by having to come back from behind even when we're playing well in open play. | | | |

Castro Pereira doesn't know when or not to come for corners. | |

Agree husseys taking everyone and his delivery is top drawer, spin on ball and perfect height every time, slightest contact with a bury head and its likely to be back of net! |  | | |

Probably because he doesn't trust the defenders in front of him. Can't blame him. We haven't a clue how to defend set pieces in the goal area and it's been like that for far too long. |  |

Cameras spent a lot of time looking at the fella next to Paul Hazlehurst. Anyone know who he is? Didn't recognize him. |  | | |

watching on TV it should have been the keepers ball but he couldnt make up his mind whether to come for it or not.
I suppose we have to get those problems solved before he goes back to United. Isnt that why he is here. | | | |

Quality ball into box ,something we aren't capable of doing .keeper had no chance. | | | |

give credit to t'other lot, every set piece has been dangerous and looked like leading to a chance. We get a corner and its a case of "oh well". The need for a decent set piece taker is so obvious |  |

Don't really see what taking your most creative player off, and swapping right-backs is designed to achieve. | | | |

That'll be Hill & Beech then.
They've worked with them week in, week out, with no discernible effect on either defending opposition corners or threatening with our own. When the ball goes out for a corner to Dale now, I simply resign myself to the end of the attacking move. |  |

In the old days when the football was terrible we'd get excited by corners as the was a genuine chance to score. I'm amazed that with much better players the standard of set pieces has gone downhill to the extent that yes, it's no more threatening than any other ball into the box in open play. |  |

I was amazed that rose came on seemed a very strange change. Crosses and corners not up to scratch today. |  |

That`s coz he`s the new kid on the block literally and doesn`t have the nous or confidence to tell his defenders what he`s going to do,so they leave it up to each other. United`s goalie is the same,his shot stopping is amazing,but he doesn`t control his penalty area as all good keepers should. That`s why McNulty gave him a bollocking when the pair of them conceded that right wing corner with a few minutes left,no communication from the keeper. I know Lillis isn`t too good at corners either,but at least he has the experience to open his gob when he has to. I can`t see what KH sees in the young bloke,or United for that matter,I thought he was woeful,the few ones he saved were more by good luck than good management in my opinion,but I suppose KH has to play him or there`s no point in him being there. | | | |

Castro is what i expected, a raw young kid with bags of potential. I would love to know what's motivated Hill to drop our first choice goalkeeper for this kid. What message does this send out to the team because I know how most of the supporters think. I actually thought his distribution, handling and decision making was pretty poor yesterday, so did a few of the defenders
Does Hill have so little respect for Rochdale that he is willing to treat our own players like this to benefit another club? It seems to me that Hill is undermining Liilis to such a extent that he will now have to look at leaving the Club, good luck Josh.
Loads of instances when Hills man management skills have been called into question this season and the Lillis situation is the latest episode, the players look devoid of happiness. [Post edited 7 Dec 2015 6:09]

*Conspiracy theory motives: Lillis has had 2 WORLD CLASS performances last 2 times against bury, Hill not too bothered about going out - lets face it he said himself he's earned Dale enough money over the last 2 seasons to run the club for 10 years! His best mate needs a big tie in the 3rd round (I know this isn't guaranteed but at least they are in the draw) - they needed the win more than us.
*I dont believe this - just putting it out there. |  |
