    All this chopping and changing penalty takers if he misses is fuckked up! We should have one penalty taker and stay with it. It has became a bit of a farce

    Ki?

    Also sick of Commons taking freekicks. Okay he hit the post with one today but overall he is poor at them. Mulgrew should be on them everytime imo.

    Majstorovic has a good record scoring penalties. Might be worth giving him the duty.

    Either way, more practice is needed.

    It's easy to say on here after the fact. But as Commons was getting ready to take the pk I thought he was going to miss. His angle of approach was so extreme I thought what the heck is he doing and sure enough he misses.

    Give the spot kicks back to Stokes.

    Commons seemed pretty casual to me when running up. Almost like it wasn't a big deal. Probably me over analysing but it's how I felt at the time.

    I'd try and get it sorted in training. Practice, see who the best taker is that starts regularly and make him penalty taker for the season.

    Too bad we couldn't have subbed Murphy on to take it and then back off.

    Didn't like the 'if you miss one you're off them' rule before & still don't, like others have said just pick a no1 taker & stick to it

    Our record at taking penalties is a disgrace, surely one of the worst records about ?

    I'm not picky.
    I remember Larsson used to be our regular penalty taker but did he not relinquish that duty at some point after he missed a few of them?

    it should not be a case of "you missed your the last penalty now who is next on the list?" it should be who ever is 100% confident of scoring it.

    Mark Wilson I remember took one for Dundee Utd against us. Don't know how good he is but he's probably worth a go. Him or Chico. Just someone to lace it.

    Getting sick of us missing penalties.

    We score that today and it would have been a totally different game and one which we probably would have won cos it's usually the first goal that's important in those type of games.

    Thought Commons would have been the answer, but there you go.
