I wasn't trying to suggest just the modern era, that was just an aside that I thought Dion was out of modern times.Ernie Hunt? Not modern I realise
I love how Killer blasted them. Don't think the keeper dare get in his way.I'd say you're right- Dion. But I don't recall Kilcline missing too many?
My favourite penalty ever was by Killer actually- 88/89 v Arsenal a& they were heading for the title, we won a penalty in the 1st half and he missed it. Then we won another late in the game- whole ground hushed & oozing excitment & nerves as we all realised Kilcline was going to have another crack at it- he stepped up and smashed it home- that took nerves of steel.

I think that was against Walsall first game of the season, 0-0, smashed it against the post in front of the WT.Gary McAllister has to be up there right? I think I read he only missed one for us and I seem to remember him taking a lot of them.

Norwich or Middlesborough I think. Oh Elliot, you twat !!!
ps or maybe Southampton - would trust Covmarks memory over mine !!!
The only ones I remember him missing were when he tried to place them- remember one v Norwich when they'd had Gunn sent off and I think Mark Bowen was in goal, he looked tiny- Killer decided to try and place it in the corner and missed it.
The best penalty I ever saw against us was Stuart Pearce, I'm gonna guess 1994/1995 (the day when my favourite player of all time, Brian Borrows, was drafted over to Centre Half and had Collymore in his back pocket all day, an immense performance)- it was the only time I ever saw the ball hit the top of the West Stand- not the west end, mind- the actual stand roof. Pretty sure you can see that on youtube.
The worst was Sammy sideways - his run up was in line with the goal line scuffed it and missed on the lhs - cant remember who it was against - edit was Swansea lost 0-1 Clingan took over from McSheffrey who had skied the previous one
And what about you, Clarrie? How many did you score?
He missed once against Arsenal I think and then scored another and there was a game where the keeper saved one and he scored the follow up with some kind of bicycle kick - Wimbledon?
You got it- Vinnie Jones was furious that he was allowed to knock in the rebound, then later on we were treated to one of Speedie's fantastic lobs- my favourite one of all in fact
