    we are just acknowledging that penalties don't count.

    Here we go.

    The fact someone has missed a penalty proves the theory that hourihane is an undroppable genius, and anybody who dares to mention his limitations and the fact that they are very prominent in a lot of games is mental.

    I haven't the energy or the inclination to bother.

    So yes, you're correct.

    It's called having a bit of fun. We used to have lots on here, once upon a time.

    And your attempt at not bothering failed.

    It was a poor penalty though. No power and too near the keeper

    It's called winding up the folk who happen to have a different opinion....

    But I will give you that the hourihane debate has been done to death, so to make light of it was right. You put your line in, I nibbled. You got me. Reckon someone else would have if not me, but there we go. Hands held up.

    I'll blame the fact I'm at work and not at glanford park. Got a load of in laws in scunny, could have had a free feed, free parking at one of their houses and a lift to ground and back. But no I'm in fecking Leeds working.

    He's still a lazy fecker though ;-)

    Bit of fun or not, it was perfectly timed after all the nonsense of yesterday wasn't it!

    It's was with bells on we'd get a pen and miss it as soon as he didn't play! Absolutely nailed on.

    Something like 86% of all penalties in english football are scored regardless of taker. Sure some people miss them occasionally but regardless of who takes them the vast vast majority are scored

    Problem is, the law of sod says that we'll get another one in the last minute, after bringing Hourihane on...and he'll miss too!

    Be interesting if Hill was still our manager though, as he'd have blamed the fans for putting Watkins off by having the argument on the BBS the day before.

    I feel for you. Nobody should be in Leeds.

    I don't know how Watkins will go home to his family and show his face, embarrassing from him, the arrogant basterd.

    Leeds isn't so bad. There's a shitload of big roads to get you away from it...

    Plus, (whispers), I live in Donny anyway. I know I'm not alone in that shocking admission.
