I disagree unless it’s someone taking them who you can tell waits for the keeper’s movements...Le Tissier springs to mind. Generally a good penalty taker finds the corner or close enough with sufficient power for it not to matter if it’s not quite precise enough - I don’t think I’ve ever seen Marquis take a penalty like that and he’s missed a few for us now.

No need for a meltdown given we won and it’s fantastic to start the season with three on the spin, but he shouldn’t be on penalties as it will cost us in the future.

Weird to describe a 2-1 win as a hammering, but we blew them away. Their goal was their only decent effort and it was a freak. On another day, with the penalty, and Wilks and May missing sitters, it could have been 5. We absolutely dominated them.

Lad went, said it was a decent penalty in corner but keeper went early and guest right to make a very good save. Said we should of had at least 4 or 5 but it's early days yet, when we do gell though, someone's going to get a right hammering.

Crowd trouble was mainly down to piss poor organisation

How do you mean? Did the organisation provoke anything?

In my experience crowd trouble stems from a few idiots regardless of which team they follow..

Because they closed the right hand side block of seats. There were more fans than available seats due to people just paying on the gate. People were just stood in the gangway everywhere. We were asking for them to open the closed section they said no.
Then around 100 of the Burberry brigade turned up around 20 mins in and they opened that section for them putting all our idiots immediately next to all their idiots
