I don't care as long as it's scored. If he has done that and the keeper saves it easily then it's a different story.Seems months since being awarded a penalty.
Some are of the opinion that COH was clever, others decry the cheekiness.
Many thought Simms should have been the taker.
Thought we'd move the conversation into its own thread.
Took it well but I would prefer the striker to take it. Great opportunity for Simms to get amongst it.
Because Simms is a player who needs to get some goals and no easier chance than from the penalty spot. At that time we were comfortable so the pressure would have been less.Why would you prefer someone else to take a penalty that we scored?

It wasn't the 6th penalty at Wembley though. I certainly wouldn't be questioning it if it was.No one would be moaning about it if it was the 6th penalty at Wembley, cool as a cucumber

I agree the key thing is that it was put away. Just thought it was an opportunity for a goal- needing striker to step up.

I remember him hitting the bar with one when playing for Forest at HR. It seemed to rebound back to the half way line.Prefer the Stuart Pearce style penalties, tbh. Blast the net apart, or knock the keeper's head off. But regardless of style, if it goes in, it goes in, and that's all that really counts.
It seemed to be in the air for ages too.I remember him hitting the bar with one when playing for Forest at HR. It seemed to rebound back to the half way line.
No doubt about it, he could hit a ball. I think it was Kevin Gallacher he bullied the first time they played each other. Although IIRC Gallacher got the better of him in subsequent games.It seemed to be in the air for ages too.
Hadji when on the pitch would be my choice to take one

He could Chippo it if he wants but the consensus seems to be to just bang itbut what about Chippo?
He would get more goals by striking the ball better and in-between the posts!!!Because Simms is a player who needs to get some goals and no easier chance than from the penalty spot. At that time we were comfortable so the pressure would have been less.

You do realise he'll miss the next one now don't youNailed on penalty taker. He looked like he could eat a lizard in the buildup then slot it in. Animal.
I didn’t think it was a great penalty.Nailed on penalty taker. He looked like he could eat a lizard in the buildup then slot it in. Animal.
Looked like he was never going to miss. He has a great record at penalties missed 1 in 12. Sends the keeper the wrong way.I didn’t think it was a great penalty.
If t(e keeper had gone the right way, it would have been saved. Not particularly hard or in the corner, his previous one wasn’t all that either.Looked like he was never going to miss. He has a great record at penalties missed 1 in 12. Sends the keeper the wrong way.
You’re nearly getting it, he sends the keeper the wrong way thats his style. He only needs to pass it in the net.If t(e keeper had gone the right way, it would have been saved. Not particularly hard or in the corner, his previous one wasn’t all that either.
Not convinced he is sending them the wrong way, but I will bow to your superior knowledge and powers of observation. One day some goalkeeper isn’t going to be fooled by his mastery of disguise, let’s hope it isn’t in a Wembley penalty shootout.You’re nearly getting it, he sends the keeper the wrong way thats his style. He only needs to pass it in the net.
