HIGHERSTATE Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 These things happen in football I can never understand people targeting scapegoats for their annoyance. Id rather fletch miss than some muppet on owlstalk stepping up to take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handworth52 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 fletcher aint and never has been a finisher I wouldn't have let him take the pen . I went to villa away where he got the winner but that was after missing 3 very decent chances . its a shame he cant finish because if he could he would be some some player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optimisticowl Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 . You’ve really got to want to take them, Waddle wasn’t keen, others love them, SB needs to find a couple in the latter category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhForAnotherShez Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 He didn't miss - it was SAVED. Not the best, but if you'd have seen Tynan's at Walsall........ the keeper had time to touch both posts & pick it up. Move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guaranteed Hooper would have smashed it in like he did Ipswich away that time. Proper penalty that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) Wasnt the best pen but he stick it with power. Just too close to keeper. Edited April 7, 2019 by Beholder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owls2k Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Players far better than Fletch have taken worse penalties. Even with the miss we should have won, deservedly so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
