1. Walters
2. Fahey
3. Andrews
4. Ward
5. Keane
 
If Cox was on the pitch I'd fancy him to take one also. The above list is semi-realistic though in terms of who is quite likely to be on the pitch at that time.

I dont think Keane will be able for 120 mins on Tuesday, so I have factored him out.

Confused, hunt is a great peno taker, slotted one home at eastlands at the weekend, not a bother on him.


Fair point but I don't trust left footed penalty takers when the real pressure is on.
The right side of the brain can't handle it.
I like Hunt a lot though and he is a confident maverick so hopefully he would slot it home.

Left footed penalty takers. Thumbs Down
 
I'm aware I have Ward in my list - but that's more due to his background as a striker!

Remember Dave O'Leary took one!

You'd be surprised at who has the bottle to take penos.
Even in junior football, I see lads who would normally be excellent strikers of the ball, find their feet stuck in the ground and their brains fried.

I'd go with; 
Walters
Keane
Hunt
Whelan
Given

People are writing McGeady off but I'd say he's the most confident player in the team! I'd definitely have him taking one. You also have to think about who'd still be on the pitch after 120 mins and I doubt whether either Keane and Duff will. Just guessing here but I would reckon he will substitute Duffer, Keane and either Andrews or Whelan at some stage so I'd go:

1. McGeady
2. Walters
3. Hunt
4. Doyle
5. Fahey

But its all pointless talk, we're not gonna need peno's Cool

Walters penalty against Newcastle was poor.  If Krul had stayed on his feet (as should all keepers) he would have saved it.
 
Still, I reckon he's the kind of guy who would keep his nerve.

The next keeper to face a Walters peno should stay on his spot. Have seen him take two penalties this season and both were thunderbolts down the middle

Going from who I would think would be on the pitch after 120 mins
1/keane
2/hunt
3/whelan
4/st ledger
5/cox
But fumble in a greasy till

And add the halfpence to the pence

And pray to shivering prayer, until

You have dried the marrow from the bone.

It is very hard for a keeper to stay on his feet for a pen and even at that Walters could smash it in either side of the keeper and make him look foolish. Id have great faith in his penalty style Id much prefer him to put his foot thru the ball than a pass back that the keeper just has to flop to save.

don´t think Long, Keane and Doyle are gonna be on the pitch together after 120 minutes.
 
 
I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat
