If the penalties are too good what can you do?! No chance Wilson’s saving that today. Best way to stop penalties going in... stop giving them away!So not so much a concern about how many we've given away (although it is still a massive concern, we've been dreadful for it all season with no signs AT ALL that it will stop any time soon) but more about the goalkeepers.
In a season and a half since our goalkeeping overhaul amd bringing in a completely fresh GK set up, we haven't saved a single penalty. Between Wilson and Marosi we haven't saved a single penalty, not even in cup shoot outs. I get that its more luck with penalty saves amd the striker will always be favourite to score, but not a single save, given how many we continue to give away is a huge cause for concern.

What is a penalty? It’s a free shot at goal from 12 yards so obviously the odds are always stacked against the keeper.
I’d be interested to see the percentage of penalties that are scored-must be 95% surely?
Can agree with that. There was one today where I was screaming at Biamou to go down.So many of them naïve and foolhardy, including today's. I don't blame the keepers - a penalty is only saved if the taker fucks up. I blame the defenders giving them away.
And yet, even if some of them have been grifted by the opposition, we don't seem to have learned anything in the opposite box either: drawing the clumsy tackle or going down in the box when fouled. From a moral perspective I appreciate and applaud our honesty - but it's a part of the modern game it seems and we are green as grass.
Probably 96 if it wasn’t for Gary BreenWhat is a penalty? It’s a free shot at goal from 12 yards so obviously the odds are always stacked against the keeper.

Don’t even know who our penalty taker is with Godden out.
Hamer has to be with the way he strikes a ball.Don’t even know who our penalty taker is with Godden out.
11 pens in 29 games (38%) must be some kind of record?Conceded 11 in all competitions
Rose, McFadzean, Wilson x2
Drysdale, O'Hare, Sheaf, Hyam, McCallum x1
good point.Must be a lot easier to take penalties with no crowd though. No fans there to give the taker dogs abuse, Far less pressure.
As low as that? Wow!75% apparently.

Promotions and being the newcomers in the league always makes it difficult with the pace of the game will always put us higher in the errors/penalties given away, would be nice for less but probably a reality this season
No knocking it but that analysis is from 2010, it would be interesting to see what the % is now as the laws have been changed and are enforced to make it harder for the keeper, with them having to stay on the line now.Soccer: Penalty Kick Percentage across Leagues
Not surprisingly, penalty kick percentage varies very little across leagues: Don't be fooled – Spanish players are no more likely to miss a PK. It's just a small sample size issue. Here'www.arcticicehockey.com
