RowlattsFox Posted 25 May 2014 Share Posted 25 May 2014 That last penalty was pathetic. I know you're under pressure but FFS at least show some professionalism and try and compose yourself, take the fvcker properly. He clearly didn't want to be there and just wanted to get it over with. He basically passed it to the goalkeeper. He's a striker as well. You could understand it if he'd played the whole game and was struggling with fatigue but he was a sub. He's also put his name down for the 5th pen so he knew he may have a pressure pen. He's not the first to bottle it though, and won't be the last.

Finnaldo Posted 25 May 2014 Share Posted 25 May 2014 If you're a professional footballer, you play to be in those situations. If you're not prepared to deal with them you shouldn't be playing. Missing is one thing but not being man enough to take it with any conviction is another. Dagnall isn't the best of strikers to be honest. I wasn't really surprised he missed it, looked like he struggled to walk up, yet alone take it, At least he didn't try to chip it, eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry_LCFC Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 Less than 12000 tickets sold between them for today's final. That is beyond dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicesterpool Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 Nice to see two of the newer football league clubs in the final, Ideally i'd like to see Burton go up got nothing against them and wish them all the best. Who would have thought the idea of Coventry playing Burton in a league fixture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoneDog Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 Come on Burton. Want them to win so much I've stuck my biggest bet of the season on Fleetwood to get promotion to soften the blow if Burton don't do it. If Burton can get in League 1 it will be a remarkable achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicfox Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 I'm rooting for Fleetwood Town, a great little family club who were no more than a local pub team a few years back. Andy Pilley has put £10m of his own money in and is a proper football man, I reckon he deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnaldo Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 I'm rooting for Fleetwood Town, a great little family club who were no more than a local pub team a few years back. You could say the same thing about Burton. Only got into the Conference in 2002. Both small clubs that have had positive investment not only on the field but also to their infrastructure, Burton's stadium was built in 2005 and Fleetwood's was built/built upon in the 2000s as well. Either way it will be a great result, but I'm backing Burton as the most local of the two clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 Ian Hume playing Oh how the mighty have fallen after leaving us when we got relegated to League One. Nah, he was the best of a bad bunch for us. I'm supporting Fleetwood, purely for their Jamie Vardy connections I think I am really. As has been said Burton have a few Leicester connections are are localish to us, but think I edge towards Fleetwood and the only reason I can come up to as of why is I think due to Vardy I was going to bet on Fleetwood but literally every football team i've bet on this weekend has lost so have gave up on football for this weekend. (Apart from Real Madrid in extra time but the original bet of Real Madrid to win the match didn't happen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 I don't think Hume's head injury helped his progress... True, I had forgotten about that to be quite honest, regardless I think we'd still be in a position to say how the mighty have fallen given our situation now. Hard to say because he could have improved, had he not had the horrific injury, moved on from Barnsley to better things, but I doubt it really.

Sure fair enough, I'd forgotten myself until I googled him before the game. It really was a shame as like you said he was one of the better players in our relegation season, so it's easy to feel sorry for him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacamion Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 On balance, I would like Burton to go up. Fleetwood appear to be a well run club and I wish them well, too. Looks like defences are on top - maybe yet another big game this weekend that will go beyond the 90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been decent at claiming crosses and high balls in the semis but did a clanger there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soar Fox Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 Why do PA announcers feel the need to announce the result over the tannoy? The fans are in the stadium and have watched the game why would they need to know the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoneDog Posted 26 May 2014 Share Posted 26 May 2014 Oh well, feel for Burton and Lyness for his mistake. Hopefully they can have another decent season and maybe hold onto a top three spot next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
