But he was part of the team that got us there !!!
Interesting though, when the opposition gets a penalty and McKeown saves it, it's a good save. When we have a penalty saved we give no credit to the opposition goalkeeper, just have a go at the taker. Yes the taker should score but the keepers there to do his job.


The one at Wembley by Boshell was terrible though.

If the keeper goes the wrong way it isn't.
Just watched it again on YouTube and it seems to be in the corner. I admit I am watching it on my iPhone so the screen is small. If it had been Barnes it would have got a "what a save" reaction.


Baldrick ! The only impression you can do is that of a man with no talent !!

It's not that close to the corner and a great height for the keeper, very savable.

Only if you go the right way. To me that is not a terrible penalty. Not a good one but definately not terrible. Terrible pens are ones off target. I don't consider Hannah and his blasts down the middle to be good pens but how many times has it worked. The one that was saved, is that a bad pen compared to all the others that have gone in. No ! Just the keeper doing his job well.

Can see what you're saying but we'll have to agree to disagree. From 12 yards uncontested you should be giving the keeper no chance and there are plenty of places to do that. Look at LJL against Wrexham, keeper went the right way but it was irrelevant because it was so well hit.

To me that was an excellent pen. There is a very fine line between putting in the corner to hitting the post or giving the keeper a chance to save it (Cambridge). If we only had a Julian Dicks type pen taker. He could take pens.

LJL's penalty against Dartford was fantastic. Not sure any keeper would have stopped it. He really does seem to have cracked finishing when it's a penalty.

I would rather he takes them then Hannah.

The best penalty taker I ever saw was Jack Brownsword who was left back for Scunthorpe in the 1950s/60s. He scored over 50, all left footed and all in exactly the same spot, on the floor just behind the keeper's left hand post. Not even in the corner, right in the side netting.  It didn't matter whether the keeper guessed right or not. Everyone knew where it was going anyway but it was always out of reach. Could be wrong but I don't think he ever missed.

The next best was Johnny Scott for Town in the 60s who generally waited to see the keeper shift his weight and put it the other way. Occasionally for variety he would hit one with the outside of his foot that more or less went round the keeper. I only saw him miss one, against Lincoln I think.

Joe Waters was good as well. Varied his placing every time. Dave Gilbert was pretty good as was Dave Boylen. Left footers always seem to have an advantage for some reason.

He generally hit it very hard in the top corners. Not just down the middle.
