Ive often wondered what the percentage of penalties taken are actually scored, anyone know?

Seems to be roughly 75%, this link has more detailed info if you want to check it out.https://sqaf.club/what-percentage-of-pe ... ed-stats/

If we go down I'd expect a bigger clear out than if we stay up. It could be seen as a new start for the club. There is some serious pruning needed. I don't disagree but any incoming manager would then need to be given time to build their own squad and implement their style of play, and that's why a...

I am treating Everton as a bonus. I expect them to beat Palace on Thursday but should they lose them they are right in the race with a tricky trip to Arsenal on Sunday. For the first time in my life I will be a Gooner this afternoon. Hoping they will get the win that makes the Everton game huge for...

i'd much sooner choose a manager capable of the PL who would not be put off by a season in the 2nd tier.... if such a manager exiosts :D Are potential managers put off by a season in the 2nd tier, or the strong possibility that our existing squad will be severely depleted due to the sale of several...

A loss means it is in Leeds hands A draw means we only need to match Leeds Result A win means we only need point on Sunday Sounds like a massive game to me. Indeed and if you're really optimistic, a win and an Everton defeat will put us ahead of them also prior to their trip to Arsenal. Despite the...

tiger76

Certainly not a free hit, especially with that late Leeds equaliser, and it's vital we get at least a point, otherwise we could beat Newcastle last day and still go down dependent on Leeds result. We boost a victory and 2 draws from our last 3 trips to Birmingham, so it's certainly not a fixture we ...

Finished the regular season around 20 points behind Airdrieonians but still beat them in the final.

That's the beauty of the play-off's. what's gone previously doesn't matter, it's all on the day, or 2 days in this case.

tiger76

Not a must win, although a win would be great, but definitely a must not lose, as a defeat takes it out of our control, and we'll then be relying on Leeds not winning at Brentford. Villa can blow hot and cold, at TM they were hot, and crucially clinical when their chances came, in a way we were not....

Refereed away games at Newcastle, Leeds and Brentford this season

And we lost all 3, him being in the middle isn't a good omen at all.

tiger76

I think he joins them in June. According to the post match reaction , John Potter was in charge.. Apparently Coyle was in the dugout for both legs of the semi final. Ah! didn't know that, thought he's already taken the reins, he was definitely in the dugout as there's been footage on the Scottish n...

Both are trying their best to implode aren't they with the number of red cards they are amassing.

And those suspensions will hurt both in the last week, something we need to take advantage of if we can.

Brentford midfielder said after win at Everton ‘We want to finish in the top 10. We will take it to Leeds’ Best thing I have heard all day today Good to know, but we can't rely on others we need to pick up points also, win at Villa, then Leeds have to win at Brentford, and even that might not be en...

Everton are right back in the mix and with Arsenal away in their last game the pendulum has swung again today , a good day for us although it may not seem like that for everyone Not our of the question that we go into the final day above both Everton and Leeds, we win at Villa and Everton lose or d...

I wonder if they’ll show us and Everton now.

If it’s just one I suspect they’ll go Everton now.

I imagine one will be shown, but yes it's more likely to be Everton.

tiger76

Well that cheered me up somewhat, after Leeds scrambled that fortunate point, all to play for between the 3 now, and it could come down to who holds their nerve.

Crikey Everton, talk about blowing up

Yes I had them safe, but on this display I'm not so sure now, and this will be a costly defeat for them in many senses.

Blimey Rondon's only been on for a couple of minutes, and now he's off.

Handshakes... game is a draw.

Congratulations to Yorkshire for their 15 minutes on the first morning.

Yes a draw but Lancs can claim a moral victory having dominated most of the contest.

Brook impressing again 2nd dig, and he'll be getting an England call up soon.

Not if they lose today

Sorry yeah forgot about Leeds getting a point, yes true they'd have to win that game, I'd still back Everton to survive, but they are making heavy weather of getting over the line.

Erikson is just a fantastic player. Best quarterback in the league still.

Inspired signing when Brentford were in freefall, now they're well clear, and playing some great stuff.

If this stays as it is, a win against Villa drags Everton right back in it.

It might but they also play CP at home the same evening knowing a draw will see them safe.

tiger76

Get In Brentford, now can they net a winner. Yes they can, 2 in as many minutes.

tiger76

Typical Everton get a gift right on HT when they were 2nd best.

However if it's a pen, why is the defender not given a 2nd yellow?

tiger76

Interesting just maybe Everton aren't out of the woods quite yet.

Come on the Bees.

tiger76

Win at Villa and the pressure shifts back to Leeds, even a point on Thursday will swing it slightly back in our favour. The bigger concern is how many of our injured players we can patch up for 2 huge games in the space of 4 days. The key aspect is 4 points will be enough, because Leeds ain't pullin...

That Warwickshire game is a mess isn't it? 10 wickets for over a thousand runs. What are they doing with the pitches? These balls aren't doing a lot either, and are changed with incredible regularity. I don't know, but there's definitely been a dramatic change from the normal early season scores, a...

Everton 1 Brentford 0. Smoke bomb thrower with the goal

Of course it's him, and he's almost single-handedly keeping Everton in the PL.

tiger76

I didn't know about that history with Brentford and Leeds. If that's the case then I suspect Brentford will win. One point might even be enough for us. Anyone thinking how dire things are should ask themselves 'would you rather be in Leeds or Burnley's position right now?' Despite being in the rele...

tiger76

One big positive is it's in our own hands, 4 points from these last 2 games will suffice, and now we know what we need to do, and a month ago I'd have bitten your hand off for that scenario TBH. Even with a threadbare squad today we pushed Spurs all the way, and but for a debatable penalty call we c...

tiger76

If they do survive at our expense I doubt they'll care how many yellows they've garnered this season.

Regarding the Villa game Palace got a point there today, so we are perfectly capable of at least getting a draw.

An Everton win sees them out of the battle.

God I hope Brentford absolutely maul them.

Everton at Goodison should win, and they might even have enough already.

tiger76

Bump 38 will indeed be the magic number, although it might be less. But 38 guarantees PL footy next season, now as to whether we can get to that total is a different question.

If we can keep a clean sheet because we certainly aren’t going to be scoring goals with Barnes up front.

Barnes was inches away from bagging today, but yes the lack of goals is a problem we've struggled with all season long whoever's been up top.

tiger76

Not just the goal/point itself - it’s the belief that’s just been injected into them and their fans. Lost today and they were done in every imaginable way I think. We need four points. That late goal is a sickener in many ways, if Leeds had lost today we could have guaranteed our safety with a win ...

2-1 West Ham, 3-1 Leicester.

C'mon Brighton and finish the game off 2nd half.

tiger76

1-0 at the break, but Leeds improved as the half wore on, so this could be a nervy 2nd 45.

What on earth are City doing, do they think the league's already in the bag.

tiger76

Jimmy gets rid of the 2 big guns, and a chance now for Lancs to push for victory.

This thread could be entertaining, however it's worth bearing in mind that Friend didn't give the pen, Attwell on VAR did.
