Penalty taker?


Recommended Posts

It’s weird, my first thoughts were we won’t be awarded a pen, second thoughts were anyone other than FF! 

 

Not sure if i’m the only one that feels no confidence when we are awarded a penalty. Unsure if that’s because I’ve been conditioned to expect a let down as a Wednesday fan, because they come about so infrequently or because quite often we don’t have best spot kick taker taking pens.

I dont know what the average is over a season for being awarded penalties, but we got a good number last year.

 

If memory serves me right...

 

Burton away - Hooper 

Wolves away - FF

Udders away - FF

Rotherham - Fletch

Preston - Fletch

all scored

 

and the misses

Brighton away - FF

Leeds away - Rhodes

 

So 7 pens in a season. Seems unusually high to me. Five given away from home too, when refs are usually reluctant.

 

None in 8 matches so far. Lets hope we are due one.
