Reesh Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 Apparently Chris Maguire scored 7 from 7 for us, better than Carbone who missed 1 from his 7. Anyone remember how many pens Brunt took and scored, 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheat Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Mark Smith - looked like he might break Franny Lee’s record (wonder if he still has that, suppose I could google it) for the most scored in a season at one point during the 79-80 season. He just fell short in the end. Tommy Craig Steve MacLean Mel Sterland John Sheridan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkowl Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 First game I ever saw at Hillsborough was against West Brom and Tommy Craig hit the post with a penalty. Ended 0-0, 1974 I think, I was only 7 and spent most of my time mesmerised by the scoreboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheat Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Mark Smith actually fell well short. He got 11 that season, Franny Lee got 15 in 71-72. Football history being reset in 1992 seemingly and an obsession with calendar years for some reason is hampering my Google searching.

Reesh Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 My grandad used to tell about a full back called Norman Curtis who'd get the ball put on the spot for him and run from about half way to take the pen, likely embellished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bricat Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I saw Curtis and he took a very long run up. They were very powerful kicks. Not sure of the accuracy rates but when they went into the crowd , some poor sod got smashed. The guy who seemed to score regularly from penalties was Tom McAnearney, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
