FGS: What's a goal-scorer?

Great penalties. But a real bugbear of mine is seeing defensive-minded players take penalties. Don't get me wrong, J Brown, Shinnie and Forsyth stepped up and put them away comfortably enough.
But Sibley and Jozwiak are out attacking players. We're going to rely on them scoring goals this season. So why aren't they in our best five shooters from 12 yards? They could do with the confidence of scoring too, especially Joz.
Penalty-taking is a very specific exercise which has little to do with attacking or defensive mindset. I'm sure they take them in training and they take the best penalty takers for the shoot-out. Can't see what's to get annoyed about.

That may leave a scar that would never heal.

Ahh the glory fan ???, it been a rollercoaster since then hasn't it.
A true glory fan would have been supporting Liverpol by 1978. But yes, it has certainly been a rollercoaster!. It's just that I started with the high. I think the rollercoaster probably needs servicing now, so it can climb back up to the top again.

Born in Gloucester, live in France. Dad a lifelong Derby fan, no real football team in Gloucester, and I started getting into football in 1974/5, so I didn't tke a lot of indoctrinating.

I'd like to imagine that there is a Real Betis forum in Spanish somewhere on the Internet and they are currently having an absolute meltdown about being beaten in pre-season by a second tier team with about 8 senior players on the books that are being managed by a clown.
Of course there is:

Otra derrota contra contra un equipo con jugadores a prueba. De vergüenza (Translation: Another defeat against a side with players on trial. Shame on us! )
Not much about how we played though. More complaining about how bad they were.

If the club folded, what would you do? Stop following football entirely? Become a football fan (no allegiance to one team, but keep watching)? Support another club?
I could never support (like properly support) another club. I don't think I could stop following football entirely either - I still play Sunday league at 52, so there must be something about it that keeps me coming back. So that leaves the general football fan option, generally supporting my fantasy PL picks to get as many points as possible. Wouldn't be the same though. Let's hope it never comes to that.

In that case, we could even try and grab a pair of Brest's.
