We're effing brilliant and going to win the lot, this week.

Jay is currently above that

is what I meant

Surprising given how unconvincing many are (though obviously despite the fact mios go in) but stats don’t lie. A good one to miss on Saturday. I’m always surprised penalty takers don’t just blast them high into the corner where a keeper is never going to save them ‘à La’ Shearer. Surely pro footballers should be able to do that with a dead ball from such a close range.

You'd think, and they do all have the quality to do it comfortably, but it's a proper mental battle.

Players generally go low because it rules out one route of missing, which is hitting it over, it takes balls to rule that in by hitting it high, though I agree that if you get it right your odds of scoring are extremely high.

Always remember Maguire's in the Italy final, best penalty I've ever seen.

Yeah I agree, unbelievable penalty.

Get Billy Wright in to coach tha bastards.

Had a listen to a lot of it arsing about at the gym. Good stuff. Better than the bantz merchants and you all talk quite intelligently about football. Dig it.

Thanks FB, that means a lot from a man of your tastes.

I enjoyed it a lot as well. If we win 4-0 every week it'll be the best podcast around

Good to know what the expectation/average is, bolded his conversion rate as its notably better than that 👍
