Agreed, I struggle to understand how so many penalties are so ****. I get there's pressure, but if you're nervous surely the one thing to not do is just weakly put it to one side, there's at least a 50% chance it'll be saved doing that. Philogene missed his pen earlier this season doing the same thing. You'd surely have a better success rate if you just twatted it, even down the middle. Those weak penalties to one side are becoming a real pet hate of mine.
Slater - His driving run to earn the penalty set the tone for his performance. Kept Dewsbury-Hall quiet all game, too. Omur - What a quality signing he looks - seemed to be everywhere today Carvalho - got over his penalty miss to tuck his chance away well and worked tirelessly all afternoon No one had a bad game - good effort, lads
Slater Omur Coyle With Carvalho just missing out despite having a much better game and scoring, although poor penalty.
Omur - looks a great signing - absolute quality Slater - tireless, great surging run for the pen Coyle - great example for the rest of the team - starting to remind me of Ashbee
Omur Slater Carvalho Really enjoyed the game, an open entertaining and close match with the league millionaire leaders was a credit to our players....
Currently sailing through the fjords with just occasional signal. I’ll sort this out before our next game. Promise.
Just twatting it down the middle just results in something akin to a Josh Magennis effort if it goes wrong though, so it's one of those where it's temperament rather than technique, I'd say. Hopefully Ozan is on the pitch to take the next one.
