Frustrated Corner Back

(Oldest Posts First)

Im 20 years old and play corner back for my club. However Im improving all the time and developing into a good player.
I would like to play wing half back as I am quick and have great vision. I also see myself as a linkman/play maker type player and I cant do this stuck in corner back.
Management fail to spot my potential and continue to ignore me!
This is frustrating and to sum it up, im underrated and ignored!

Pull a hissy fit.

Get yourself dropped.

Move into Seanie's spare room.

Sorted.

Seem like your a bit full of yourself mate , if you are as good as you make yourself out to be you'd be playing in Clones tomorrow , unless the manager is blind surely if you were that good he would have given you a more central role , anyway corner back is very important position , the likes of Keith Higgins , Marc O'Se , Phily McMahon are all superb ball players but are kept in the corner

Eh where did you ask the question? All I saw was a paragraph on how good you are. What exactly do you want us to do about it? Sorry but you came across way too arrogant there in your initial post.

Sometimes i have the same problem Joe but its more girl trouble, Let me explain

I'm a beautiful 20 year old single youngfella and i go out once a week. I have an amazing body and all the girls trip over themselves trying to get a piece of me .. trouble is aload of these girls are bet down , i keep telling them to go away but they keep on ignoring me and its so frustrating. I just want the class girls who are as gorgeous as me to be the only ones chasing me, It would save me alot of time. P.S.. Did i mention i'm beautiful ?

Win the ball ahead of your marker in the corner back-position, solo all the way up to the opposing 45 yard line. On the way bounce off 6 opponents flattening them to the ground, then do a mike mccarthy-esque header to yourself, then do a owen mulligan dummy, then solo the ball from the left foot to right and back again for 10 yards before lobbing it up and doing a bicycle kick all the way over the bar.


Then I expect your manager to................switch you over to the corner back position.

I think if you read between the lines in Joe's post he's done all that!

What is your Question?.
Who told you that you are developing into a good player, how much have you developed so far?.
Have you played in the forwards yet?
When you say are quick and have great vision, how fast are you and what can you see?

We (all of us on HS) can work through this with you, and with a bit of luck and diligence you will hold your place at corner back.
