Think Stringer said 250 on Saturday, but not sure. Maybe worth tweeting him or contacting foxblogger.

This site gives average corners as 7.2 for home games and 6.7 for away games - http://www.simplesoccerstats.com/

It gives corners per game

That covers the league games before Hull - 24 (12/12)

Based on that average that's 86/7 at home and 80 away = 166.

Which seems to match a figure of 150 I saw the other week on another site, so not as many as some seem to think.

Cheers for the replies guys. I want to see what the odds would be of us scoring within a certain number that's all. It has to happen sometime? Surely? :P

Double post, sorry.

What is exactly scoring from a corner?

Cross in, head in? Goal.

Cross in, volley in? Goal.

Cross in, headed out, volleyed/shot back in? Goal.

I would assume only two options count

Direct from the corner where the corner taker is accredited with the goal

First touch from the corner kick where the corner taker is accredited with the assist.

Good question, does it count if the ball ends up in the box and goes in the net after a bit of a scramble?

Think it's because people are getting mixed up between how many corners we've had this season and how many corners it has been since we scored goal. I trust your stats for the former and I don't think Dylan is far wrong on the latter.

I'd consider a goal from a flick-on or a scramble to count. but if the ball is cleared then that's it.

I was thinking from a betting perspective, bookies would have to have quite strict criteria to avoid confusion any thing beyond what i suggested is going to be open to arguments.

Bookies - Anything to avoid a pay out

I was looking more from a Subbuteo perspective :P

Just had a quick google and can't find any betting options for scoring from a corner, after this discussion I can see why.

As long as we score, who cares!
