It is a strange stat/record. Long may it continue. Anyone remember2 or even 3 pens scored in onegame? Sure we got 2 not so farback. Mind lapse.
Best penalty taker, in my opinion, has to be Harry Hooper, played for the lads in the Hurley era. Sent the keeper the wrong way every time. Dickie Rooks, wasn't too bad either. No finesse just ran up from about the half way line and give it a real wallop.
He used to be Hurley's stand in. Spent most of his time in the reserves, local lad I think from Farringdon. Built like a tank.
ah that's why your in favour of bringing back standing, so you can get the fully blown (ho) bustling in the crowd, careful your not taken for a terrorist with a weapon down your y fronts
