Graham Alexander the Burnley penalty taker has taken 76 penalties and scored 72 of em..!!

now that is good..
 
To be honest, i thought the stat was even better than that. I didn't know that he had missed one, never mind 4!
 
The German national team have not missed a single penalty during ordinary matchtime since 1982..as a matter of fact it´s the only time the Germans have missed a world cup penalty.
 
What was extremely noticeable to me though was , Alexanders penalties aside , how totally inept Hull were against them yesterday ......

yet , like almost every other side we have faced , they came out like 'worldbeaters' against us when we were at the KC ....... resulting in a 2-1 loss for us.

Makes you wonder , doesn't it ?

Pressure. When nothing is expected of you it's easier.

You could have a point .....

although nothing was expected of Burnley when they visited COMS several months ago , yet once again , on the day , we faced a team of 'worldbeaters' ...... so much so that they only other time they've played like that away from home all season was yesterday!

Sometimes you just have days like that, Hull were good value that day and scored 2 really good goals, but the final league table doesn't often lie.
