In both cases the player throwing the strop was the one who'd been fouled, so they obviously thought that gave them the right to take the resulting penalty. You're right, we do need to get this sorted out and have a designated penalty taker. Tim W.

Gradel had a tantrum to get to take it instead of Becchio, I believe that Gradel has got a bet on with a few lads that Becchio won't get 10 goals this season. Seriously though...............this is at least the 2nd time I can recall this happening recently. Didn't Becchio pull a strop last year and then miss one? I think this is very poor. There should be a designated penalty taker, end of argument. Maybe the problem is that a) we get so few pens and b) we chop and change the team so much.............that it is impossible to pick a spotkick expert. I still hanker for the days when if the ref pointed to the spot, Johnny Giles stepped up and you knew it was another goal for the Whites! _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman-new.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] MARCHING ON TOGETHER
