Delap's throw ins

But then we have Long Arm Micah, who can throw them almost as far as that Delap fellow. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

To be absolutely accurate, Micah's speciality is the high-looping-in-the-air throw down the touchline to the opposition's players. He's particularly good at that one. The simple 5 yarder to one of our own players, is a step up in difficulty for him.
 
It also looks like he lifts his back foot half the time. I've seen foul throws given against him and to be honest, I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.

Bet he can't throw them in flat at 60mph though can he, despite being built like a brick shithouse? ;D
 
By the way, did anyone else notice that the only time we left a player up front from one of his throws we ended up getting Faye sent off. If he brings everyone back tomorrow, he's an idiot.

Indeed mate.

The two best ways to get at us is out wide and take on our full backs, who can be a bit limited to say the least, or hit us very hard and fast on the break when we do get forward, especially from set-pieces where we send a lot forward. And yet 18 months on very few teams seem to have figured this out and keep trying to pass it through the middle where we generally have two central midfielders standing on the centre halves toes. Takes a lot of doing that.

if Delap didn't have such big ears he'd fall over trying to throw it in that quick.

Haha.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. ;-)
 
Bad decision by Shay but two players in his way. Hughes had these throws sussed with as less players in the area as possible. Ah well, let's all laugh at City again for another year.
