FAO Billy Sharp

[Ricky]

Take yourself off pens, NOW.

 

[Stretch]

Who else steps up though? Huge pressure on whoever takes them now.

 

[1973Blade]

FAO goalkeepers. Just stand still.

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

Or at least try a bit of variety in taking them such as putting it low to the sides

 

[YES Blade]

Take yourself off pens, NOW.

No shit Sherlock!

 

[BigBed]

Clarke was on wasn't he, he's supposed to be a striker!?

 

[Russ]

it's not difficult. Put it in the onion bag. Here are some fine examples

 

[HighfieldBlade]

Someone like Duffy or fleck should step up to take pens. Billy is shit at pens!

 

[Roygbiv]

He's taken some shit pens for us Sharp but that will take some beating. Surely he has to come off them now

 

[1973Blade]

Don Givens the second!

 

[Ricky]

He's never been a good penalty taker.

Every time he goes to either side it's very unconvincing.

I just knew he'd miss that one.

I only trust him when I know he's going to go down the middle, and tonight he couldn't do that because he wasted the chance to give himself the opportunity to by going down the middle against Shrewsbury, when we were 1-0 up against 10 men.

Lo and behold an important one comes along and he can't risk going down the middle, he has to go to the side... and we know what that means.

We might not have an outstanding penalty taker but I'm certain there are at least a few better than him.

3 weeks too late Curuthbertky

[Alfreton14Blade]

Billy taking pens = some bloke who just can't be arsed about it, crosses his fingers, & hopes for the best.

 

[Kenilworth]

Duffy or Fleck

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Worst pen since Danny Webber's pass back v Chelsea, he's lost his bottle from the spot, let EEL smash the back of the net.

 

[Bartyblade]

Who else steps up though? Huge pressure on whoever takes them now.

I would think most, if not all, the current team could cope.

Just hoping that Billy sees it!

But I think he's too greedy and egotistical to do the right thing.

Tufty might be dowsing that Ego in the coming days and taking them off him.

[Lmaobob]

The worst thing is that the keeper still held onto the ball it was that weak

 

[TJB.]

Anyone who doesn't bang a tame shot down the centre of the goal?

Not saying take him off pens, but he must do better. He's a very good striker. That was unacceptable for someone of his calibre.

It was very poor.

 

[TJB.]

Worst penalty I've seen from one of our own at home.

At least Simmo had the decency to put some height on it

 

[west_yorks_blade]

It's about time everyone was able to get on his back again.

 

[dublin 10 blade]

Should have given it to Don Givens , he'd be bound to score ohhh wait .....

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Watching Coutts strike a ball on that Soccer AM challenge did make me wonder whether he could strike a decent pen?

 

[Slim Man]

That was the pen of an unconfident lad. Why not just give it to Clarke? So greedy

 

[Foxy]

Here's one he took preseason:



Sure I've got a couple from shootouts too.

Scored a couple of pens Coutts. One in pre-season and one in the JPT. Fleck missed in that JPT game too incidentally

I feel the shot was equal to the decision. From where I was sat, none of the fans had a clue it had been given, and the players even less so. Crap decision, crap penalty. Crap, crap, crap all round.

 

[SUFC Handsworth]

Said when Sharp missed the last pen (v Shrewsbury), when it didn't matter, that him taking penalties would cost us at some point when it did matter. He's cost us at least a point tonight, if not three, with a f***ing shocker of a cop-out penalty. They want some one on 'um who will take some responsibility (perhaps Duffy) and get it hit low, hard and accurate into the bottom corner, instead of Billy's hope for the best punt down the middle.

That was poor from anyone with a leg. I'm a shit overweight goalkeeper and I wouldn't live that one down.
