-JW- Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 You can't say for definite it cost us the game, because it would have panned out differently and no one knows what would have happened. How many pens have we had this season? I think Leicester have had the most with 13 and scored 11 of them which is a decent strike rate. I think we've had about 9 and scored 4.

AndyB Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Martin hits it too soft so he'll only score if he gets it right in the corner or sends the keeper the wrong way. Ward, Russell and Bryson the same it seems. Bamford might be worth a go, especially at the moment with 4 in 4. I don't fancy Dawkins or Hughes, I expect they would also place it. What we need is a good clean striker of the ball, I wonder if Forsyth's left foot could hit it hard and accurately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left footers usually score more often than not too (mind you did Russell miss with his left earlier in season?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 on a slightly related note we should have chris martin taking corners he can curl them in himself , anyone see the corner challenge him, ward and i think russell did? He did it with Ward and Coutts. Couts won it by a mile and has been the best in the country so far I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkletoes Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 What is this Buxton thing it's just ridiculous you will be telling me he can walk on water next. But just maybe he should learn how to defend our goal first. So i assume your not a fan? he may of been in the wrong for one of the goals but hes been better than our other CD this season in my opinion and i was saying i assume he would just leather it ! not he can cure cancer or cause world peace....

twinkletoes Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Research 'causality' - then we'll talk. lol seriously man ??? we score the pen = 4 - 3 and we win getting 3 points not 1 ! We score more goals then the opposition due to our penalty ( cause ) We then win the game by said goal and thus 3 points ( Effect ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am prepared to be corrected but didn't Buxton take a pen in the Ssausagehorpe penalty shoot out last season and do exactly that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimmu Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Come one folks. It's not that easy to score from penalty spot. Even I've missed one, I think it was -94 or -95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With you on this one, Forsyth would be the first name on my list if going purely on how well he can strike a ball. My only worry would be that he seems to suffer with confidence.

RodleyRam Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I thought Martin would be the top choice but he's clearly not the man for the job! At the moment Bamford but it does seem to be a poisoned chalice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Derby Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 May as well give Granty a go. Also worth a go are the likes of your Hughes' and even your Keeze's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I would give them back to Russell when he plays (as he should). He is a seasoned penalty taker. Just because he had one saved doesn't make him the wrong choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no guarantee that Birmingham even score, there's no guarantee that we don't get 4 players sent off and concede a dozen. Yes, lol seriously man.
