Blessed if I can work out why we concede so many from set-pieces

"They were marking zonally and I just thought I'd hang around at the far post," said Evatt. "Foxy put it right on my head and I was able to head it into the far corner."

Whilst Doherty, Etuhu and Brown all stood and watched.

A few minutes later, from a corner and despite us having left only Huckerby upfield, Blackpool had 5 (yes FIVE) unmarked players in our box and two further unmarked just outside the box. Do the maths - 1 taking the corner, plus 5 unmarked in the box, 2 unmarked on the edge of the box, 2 on Huckerby near the half way line, and a goalie - that's the entire Blackpool team accounted for - and only Huckerby "marking" anyone from a corner (and I'm not sure that really counts does it?).
