Our penalty record

[bristolseagull]

OK, so along with our part in the game with the most penalties, do we also hold the record for the most penalties scored in one season? along with the 15 in shoot outs we've had, what, 3 in open play this season?

Man City converted 15 in one season a while ago i think.....

 

[Mendoza]

Robbie Savage Murray and Forster all Missed this season.

Virgo missed, but special FIFA Virgo lovin rulings meant that he was allowed to take it again and score

When was the last time we lost a penalty shoot out?

In the last few seasons I can remember:

3 this season (all won)
Milwall last season (won)
Play off semi (won)

 

[bristolseagull]

yes, but we scored 5 against man city, 5 against orient and 5 last night, we've also scored a few in games no?

When was the last time we lost a penalty shoot out?

In the last few seasons I can remember:

3 this season (all won)
Milwall last season (won)
Play off semi (won)

and when was the last time we missed a penalty in a shoot out (scored all four v Swindon - can't remember Millwall)

 

[Mendoza]

Savage missed in the shootout against Orient

think Forster scored 2 pennos in the league, Bristol Rovers and Yeovil

and when was the last time we missed a penalty in a shoot out (scored all four v Swindon - can't remember Millwall)

Robbie Savage missed in the shoot out v. Orient.

The only reason we scored 5 is because it went into the first round of sudden death.

(I think - can somebody confirm).

 

[CHAPPERS]

I was very impressed with the standard of penalties last night, especially Elphick's.

 

[Gazwag]

Savage missed in the shootout against Orient

Robbie Savage missed in the shoot out v. Orient.

 

[Albion Rob]

Off the top of my head, I think the last time we lost on penalties was possibly against Orient in the JP Trophy (or whatever it was called then) a few years back.

Failing that, I'd guess at Sudbury in the FA Cup at the Goldstone over a decade ago.

I was very impressed with the standard of penalties last night, especially Elphick's.

Indeed, nearly all of them (ours and theirs) were right in the corner. Shame England can't do the same

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

We'd better win in normal time in future games, we're due to lose a shoot out

Robinsons was the best.. then forsters..
Elphicks would of been saved if the keeper went the right way..
the others were unstopable..

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Elphicks would of been saved if the keeper went the right way..

Quality.

 

[Jake Manthorpe]

Quality.

he went the right way for robinsons, forsters and richards.. none were saved..
elphics was in a position he would of got to..
why you trying to get brave?

 

[Notters]

Didn't one cup match go to about 16-15 earlier this season? Aldershot or someone?

Part of the art of taking a penalty is for the keeper to go one way and the ball the other isn't it ? I think it was Cantona who replied to a question about what would have happened if the goalie had gone the other way - he said he would have stuck it the other side. They are the best penalties when the keeper is diving one way looking at the ball going the other.


What has bravery to do with it ?

I guess it's all in the mind.
If only the England team can transport themselves from the semi/quarter-final of the worlds biggest competition (or Euro's).
To a cold night in Shrewsbury, playing out infront of a couple of thousand, for a meaningless piss pot trophy, semi-final place.
