Your Penalty Lineup

[Jon P]

Osborn is a great pick

 

[CarlMcBlade]

With Billy being the obvious exception to this rule. But I personally wouldn’t let a striker take a dead ball kick of any description.

 

[Yogi]

Berge (was last years taker)
Norwood
Sharp
Fleck
MGW

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Hourihane
Osborn
Norwood
MGW
Enda

 

[mattbianco1]

Brewster - the kid is doomed for us

Brewster's penalty was more a great save than a bad miss. I don't like stuttered run ups though, never have.

To answer the OP...

1. Norwood
2. Gibbs-White
3. Hourihane
4. Sharp
5. Osborn

Sudden death pens...

6. Brewster
7. Berge
8. Freeman
9. Bogle
10. Stevens
11. Simonsen

 

[William]

My theory is that if the penalty takers are shit, just go with left footers. So from the other night…

Norwood
Fleck
Stevens
Osborn
Robinson

I like Sharp at number 4

 

[jt64]

All 5 are good strikers of the ball. Plus the right, left combination is a pain for keepers

Struggling to see why this would ever be relevant? This isn't cricket

 

[sitwell]

What would your all time penalty line up be, Whitehouse and Eddy would be up there but who else

Kenworthy.

 

[Newbury Blade]

Peter Duffield or Woody for me, every time.

 

[Newbury Blade]

Was going to suggest Nudger Needham but I see that he missed one for England v Scotland in 1901.
Hit it straight at the keeper. FFS

 

[DronnieBlade]

Plain. Simple. Vanilla FACT.

We do NOT have one player in our ranks that takes penalties in the way a top
player who KNOWS what he’s doing takes them.

PM me if you need to understand what that actually constitutes !!

UTB

 

[blade too long]

everton got a retake for a saved pen as the goalie was off the line
mcburnie didnt get that chance despite this

 

[Big Hitter]

It ain't Rocket Science, somebody needs to put their laces thru it and get it on target. More chance of evading the goalie, even if he gets a hand on it , if it is hit with some power. eg Harry's in that Euro Final.
Best one I ever saw for us was Woody.

He’d have missed again.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

1. Sander Berge
2. Ben Osborn
3. Rhian Brewster
4. Oli Norwood
5. Conor Hourihane
----------

Just going off the cleanest strikers of a ball.

 

[NE Blade]

I would go with:

Jack Robinson
Lys Mousset
Oli Burke
Oli McBurnie
Rhian Brewster

Because they are already scapegoats, so if they missed it wouldn’t be too damaging to morale :/

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

Thought Brewster penalty was decent to be honest. Really good save. McBurnie scored his penalty for Scotland. Can’t judge on a one off game. Everyone will miss a penalty during their career.

 

[Wireblade]

Michael Brown never looked like missing during the Triple Assault season. Jack Lester also gets an extra mark for winning them all himself in the first place. Don’t think either missed one for us.

Brown in the play off final??

Brown missed in the play off final

 

[Geordie Blade]

Peter Duffield.

I think Duffield has the record of most penalties for us without ever missing (7 from 7). I'm pretty sure that all seven were stuck into the exact same spot too (side-footed low and hard to the keeper's right).

 

[Wireblade]

Brown in the play off final??

I think my brain had left the ground by half time!
