Think the confusion is whether we were awarded a penalty or not.
I wonder who is going to be our penalty-misser this season
Taking pens is an odd business....consider Peter Noble, whilst at STFC, he never took a pen, yet when at Burnley later on in his career he scored all 28 pens he ever took, a record for most consecutive pens scored. I reckon Ty Belford might be quite useful at spot kicks....give him a go I say. |

I always thought that about Brezovan, whenever he and Smith were warming up the big lad used to smack the leather off the ball.

I don't mean that. Some sources say Obika missed a penalty (whatever that would entail), others say there was no penalty awarded.
Obika creditably earned a penalty. He made an aggressive and incisive burst between two Petersfield defenders standing just inside the penalty area and was brought down. He took the penalty himself if you can call "taking a penalty" passing the ball one yard to the keepers right off a one step run up. The keeper flopped down on the ball - he'd call it a "save" but I would certainly still call the penalty attempt a "miss". 800 years after Magna Carta, I am prepared to do my bit to preserve an Englishman's right to liberty and free speech in football writing by breaking the conspiracy of silence about the penalty miss |

He's 17 apparently, so not quite as young as we thought.

Don't usually do friendlies but I've got to see our 'defence' for myself.
