unfortunately for him, Pym did too…
Have you ever wondered what would happen (in a penalty situation), if a goal keeper just held his ground, springing up and down on the spot, dead central and didn't dive to either his left or right?

Obviously, the player taking the penalty wouldn't know the keeper wasn't going to dive. A lot of players (allegedly) wait to see which way the keeper is going to dive before they place the ball in the opposite side of the net.

I wonder if a tactic like that would be enough to put the penalty taker off, and cause them to sky it or miss the goal completely?

Not to forget New Zealand Rugby as well.
 
The City Club shop are missing a trick here if they don't purchase a few thousand blow-up haddocks before the Derby.
Tried Grimsby website, haddock are out of stock at the moment but bringing any blow up fish will be childish but extremely funny.
