When did we last not score a penalty during a season?

I can't recall this happening before, I think its been mentioned it's the first time a promotion team hasn't scored a penalty? We missed a couple, maybe we should be practising them for next season!

Watching the Under 21 match today I noticed that the grass around the penalty spot at the Kop end was quite worn.
Who's been using it?

91-92 season,dont think we were awarded a penalty at all that season. So obviously we didnt score one.

Bassett made a comment about what would have to happen to one of our players in order for us to be awarded a penalty that season.

I remember a short bit of fiction in Flashing Blade that year in which Brian Deane got into the area but was set upon by a gang of defenders, who tied him to a chair, doused him with petrol and then lit a match. Deane was sent off for spitting at the match to extinguish it.

He said "The only time we get penalties were when we got raped and gangbanged"

Could you imagine if a manager said summat like that today?

Too much media training in place.

I also liked his, " first half we done too much fanny-dangle" comment.

How can a single comment be both incomprehensible and totally clear ?

I like the quote about John Francis who wasn’t the best of finishers and who famously “couldn’t hit a cow’s arse with a banjo”

I am sure Sir Dave Bassett made a comment, it was like rorks drift out there.
