I will be fuming all weekend about Norwood’s free kick 17:07 - Feb 8 with 4960 viewsIllinoisblue

How can a professional not hit the target from 8 yards?

And how much time did Jackson want with his chance at the end?

Ffs. Downes too with a great chance at the end, balloons it over.

62 - 78 - 81

Norwood really is pub league at times. That shot summed up his afternoon.

Unforgivably poor that. Can understand not scoring but missing the target is ridiculous. Then he tried to blame Donacien for missing even though the defender kicked it off him.

Jackson looked so low on confidence when he went through - it was like he was waiting for something to happen. Needed to shift it onto his left but just never did.

Shame really because we just about deserved a point based on our first half.

Exactly this! Professionals, paid disproportionately for supposedly being able to kick a football in the right direction better than us normos. Yet even when given free shots at goal they can't get it in. It is absurd, arguably disgraceful. But this is what you get when you don't pay the going rate for someone who can genuinely score enough goals to change games and/or putting a scouting system in place to find them wherever they are. Everything has been done on the cheap and so this is where we find ourselves.

Almost turned into an inspired assist for Donacien. Nah very poor, so frustrating. As Hullblue says, Jackson really needed to shift it onto his left and open up his body coming in from that angle, looks short of confidence at the mo. To be fair to Downes his chance was a difficult one dropping down on the volley, he tried to take it very high so not easy to keep those down.

Today could have been very different if we’d had Garbutt & KVY available, we had no end product from wide areas.

Exactly what I thought. Let's face it Skuse getting an assist would be a miracle. All it needed was someone just to smash it straight at the goal

But how often do we do that? We rarely shoot from distance too!

It's all very frustrating especially as we seemed to have had the better of the first half.

And thats another thing, how often do have a reasonable half and the second one is rubbish?

Agree, would love to see a league table of shots from outside of the box, because we'd be right at the bottom..

Apart from this rubbish, I hope you're well S :)

As an aside, WTF was the Sunderland wall doing standing where it did?

Nearly all of them were in front of the goal line and a number of them by several yards.

It was asking for someone just to smash it at goal and get lucky with deflections, ricochets etc

A bit like penalties. If the keeper saves it then fine, but at least get it on target.

Norwood seriously needs to start focusing more on his football more than social media bullsht

A striker with a brain would have seen the huge gap open up in the wall and rolled it into the corner.

Utter shambles them lot.

Those close free kicks rarely go in. But Jacksons failure to get a shot off when clean through was shockingly poor.

You do realise this was in-direct right? Has to be touched or passed before shooting.
