How many did he take? At a guess I would estimate it at no more than 10, possibly only about 6, in his entire time with us but I cannot remember him missing one..
It has become easier from the aspect that refs rarely take into account players in the box, goal keepers moving forward early. You very rarely see penalties ordered to be retaken , yesterday was a point in fact many players from both sides encroaching. To say scouting is now a bonus is slightly beneficial but in the 50s everybody knew Tommy Harmer at Spurs put the ball in the keepers top left hand corner he never changed it and I dont remember hearing of him missing one. In our case Jimmy Langley used power straight down the middle, I knew it so other keepers would have.
