Penalty Takers?

[Lurker]

You've got to admit, Gus has made us very hard to beat.
You've also got to admit, we aren't finding it easy to roll teams over either.

Statistics show that we are very much the draw specialists in this league, and even if we win a couple of our last three games, the odds must still be on us playing out draws in the play offs.

I sincerely hope Gus has got Penalty practice as part of his daily training routine at the moment!

Who do you think would be our 5 nominated takers?

 

[Blue and White Tiger]

If on the pitch, for me;
Spanish Dave
Vicente
Ulloa
Bridcutt
Calde

In that order.

 

[seagully]

For me (assuming they are on the pitch and in no particular order)

Spanish Dave, Vicente, Ulloa, Orlandi, Bridge.

 

[JOLovegrove]

For me:

Dave, Ulloa, Vicente, Buckley and Orlandi. I know we beat Wrexham, but what is our record like in shoot outs?

 

[banjo]

Lopez
Spanish Dave
Dave
David
Oh and David Lopez.

 

[nwgull]

Spanish
Vicente
Ulloa
KLL
Orlandi

 

[BHA96]

Vicente
Dave
Barnes
Ulloa
Orlandi

 

[Stat Brother]

Lopez
Spanish Dave
Dave
David
Oh and David Lopez.

The only 5 players I have any confidence in.

El Dave, to take the 6th.

i would have thought once we make the play offs the shackles will be loosened slightly and we may well go for the win...if we go pens i would say......bridge , dave , len , liam, orlandi, calde , hammond......if it goes further than that i will have choked on the sofa...!

Any problem we have with penalty taking is self inflicted. The seasons we rotate penalty takers are the season we miss most. Two seasons at Barnes, Murray, Bennett, wood, dicker all took penalties and we didn't do so well. Last season just Barnes and Harley took them and we did very well. This season we've had Barnes, cms, Vicente, Lopez, ulloa take them and we've struggled.

We had one shoot out in each of the last two seasons and won them both.

 

[Munkfish]

Spanish
Vicente
Ulloa
KLL
Orlandi

Lua Lua would be no where near the list for me, not unless you want the tension of will he smash it over the bar or smash it in the roof of the net, very much like Adam Virgo against Swindon. looked great but could have gone terribley wrong.

 

[banjo]

The only 5 players I have any confidence in.

El Dave, to take the 6th.

I forgot about him.

 

[Postman Pat]

Last season just Barnes and Harley took them and we did very well.

Will we have Ryan on the bench for the play-off's as a specialist kicker

 

[SeagullSongs]

Lopez
Vicente
Calderon
Bridcutt
Orlandi

Then Ulloa, Bridge, Bruno and Buckley if some of the above aren't on the pitch.

 

[SamPeters18]

The 5 i would want as the takers if on the pitch

Spanish Dave
Ulloa
Orlandi
Vicente
Bridcutt

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Experience and calm under pressure:

Ulloa
Spanish
Vicente
Bridge
Bridcutt

 

[Marshy]

Lopez
Vicente
Ulloa
Barnes
Orlandi

 

[JTR938]

Vicente
Dave
Barnes
Ulloa
Orlandi

Barnes taking a pen?? No thanks!
Spanish Dave
Orlandi
Bridcut
Ulloa
Hammond

 

[Buzzer]

At last someone says Hammond. Remember when he played for us at Withdean he always took the penalties and I can't recall too many misses.

 

[JBizzle]

Spanish Dave;
Vicente;
Ulloa;
Barnes;
Calderon.

If there's one player on the pitch I'd love to step up and slot home the last vital penalty it would be Calderon. Mr. Professional.

I've also missed out Hammond but I'd back him to score too.
