I agree with Cas. Although I suspect for a few different reasons.

 

Once Elmander went off there was nobody really with a better case to take it. Taylor, although having plenty of efforts on goal, seems to lack composure at the moment of shooting.

 

Also we need penalty candidates to be 'nailed on' to start. Like it or not, Nolan will start most games, whereas Taylor will be dropped midway through the season once Megson realises he's rubbish ;o)

i questioned why taylor wasn't taking the penalty at the time.

 

I'm happy for nolan to take the pens but i persoanlly would prefer Taylor

I do think we should just pick a guy and stick with him, Taylor has a good record of taking pens, but i'd bet on Nolan or Elmander knocking them in 9/10 aswell.

Gretar Steinsson.

Taylors last goal for Portsmouth was a penalty against Bolton last August.

John Ritson.

John Ritson.

 

 

was a good cricketer as well

Used to like Ritty. Good solid full back and bloody good set piece mon.

So you like the ups and downs - ups winning the pen downs Nolan missing them

 

Not sure who I would go for though - nobody stands out as looking confident

steinsson for me

Jussi

any of the outfield players should be more than capable of taking a penalty

In the paper today it says everyone else bottled it so the Captain stepped up.

 

I'd have money on Elmander taking the next one though.

As has been said, had he been on the pitch he'd probably taken this one.

Any of the back four or Jussi.

someone who can would be a start, they do enought training to decide that im sure, nolan not the answer

Is that fact that we missed a penalty causing all this or the fact that it was Nolan that missed it? Would we be having the same debate had Elmander missed it?

I know what you're getting at, HR. And you're bang on.

 

It's just another excuse for folk to get on Nolan's back IMO. Players sometimes miss penalties: shit happens.

Get over it.

Whoever feels confident enough to take one!!

Did Nolan miss or did Given save???
