Penalty stats

by windermere_royal » 24 Jan 2016 19:52

While I agree we don`t get that many pens, I think our record is pretty damn awaful. as far back as our our 106 team I remember us missing 3 in one game against Palace.
I would like to know if anyone as any figues as to our conversion percentage?

In the league.
Not "Pretty damn awful" bar 2011/12

Glenn Murray, Jason Roberts, Matej Vydra, Orlando Sa, Billy Sharp:
All took one league penalty in their first and only season for Reading and missed.
Too eager to impress, it would seem.

*Obviously not Jason Roberts's only season, but was during his first.

Witness the Shane Long effect in 2009/10 and 10/11.

Blackman scored 5/5; what a star.

I believe our two misses last season were against Sheffield Wednesday as well? Murray in the away game and Robson-Kanu at home.

I'm sure we missed more than one penalty in 2005/06. Lita missed one away to Coventry and then we missed two in one go against Palace a few days later (Lita had the first saved which had to retaken as the keeper had come off his line, Little then missed the second attempt!) Kitson also missed away to Millwall and Sheffield United.

Pretty dreadful stats in 2011/12 - I guess one of the big ones was away to West Ham that Harte scored. I think Harte and Hunt both missed two that season whilst Roberts and McAnuff both missed at home to Bristol City.

I must say Nick Blackman was an excellent penalty taker.

Got the stats off here http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/champion ... on_id=2005
Does seem to be missing a few from 2005/6, now you mention it.
I assume more accurate for the recent years.

Anyone any idea what the percentage of penalties scored is in professional English football? Ours works out as a shade over 72% from the above.

Shane Long v Cardiff in the away leg of the playoffs was a textbook example of how to score a penalty in a pressure cooker environment.

While not in the League, Gylfi's penalty vs Liverpool was pretty smooth.

I remember Leroy Lita missing a twice taken penalty against Palace then we got another one later and Glen Little missed that too.
