Who’s the next penalty taker?
Needs sorted before we turn up at Hampden. Might need 5 of them.

Am I right in thinking Allan has only missed one this season? Or is it 2
In any case I reckon it's something that will be addressed after the ICT game

Normally I’d say get McNulty back on them but he’s missed his last 2 for us (and did he also miss one for Sunderland this season?) So I’d say Allan gets another chance. Or if, as has been suggested, top corner is the name of the game, get Omeonga on them!

The poor run of penalties is unfortunate, but it's bound to happen to teams. We aren't the first and won't be the last.
It's important that we don't cycle too heavily through takers to the point where players who are actually capable takers are dropped out of thinking completely just because of statistical inevitabilities. Two players I'd include in that are Allan and Hanlon.
If another player wants to step up next time, that's fine, good on them, but I don't think the solution is as simple as choosing a new player until they miss, rinse and repeat.

Go watch it again. He struck it slightly to the keepers left, good height for the keeper, the keeper saved it easily with his hands not his legs...pish penalty. He even made a shop front of the rebound.Hibs.nets negative posting legend and unofficial ticket agent.

So, with Nisbet missing both his last two penalties do people think a change in designated penalty taker is needed once more?
Penalty record for the current squad is below:
Joe Newell scored 1 out of 1 (100%)
Lewis Stevenson scored 1 out of 1 (100%)
Stevie Mallan scored 5 out of 6 (83%)
Martin Boyle scored 4 out of 5 (80%)
Paul Hanlon scored 4 out of 5 (80%)
Scott Allan scored 6 out of 8 (75%)
Kevin Nisbet scored 2 out of 4 (50%)
David Gray scored 0 out of 1 (0%)
Only player in the squad who hasn't hit one for us that I reckon could be half decent is Murphy

Has to be Mallan if he plays. If not Newell. I was screaming for Hanlon to take a pen for ages and of course he went and missed it on the occasion he stepped up!

I think as a matter of urgency we should be practicing them a lot more than we are.

Think mallan is less likely to start
For me, Paul Hanlon (if we change from Nisbet)

Mallan if he’s on the pitch. Good record from pens I think. Not missed one for us.

Kevin Nisbet. He's had two bad ones in a row but he's got absolute balls of steel to a) take the penalty today and b) make amends by scoring five minutes later.
Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

Brilliant finish for the goal but that was just instinct.

Mallan get my vote.

Stick with Nisbet. If he is confident enough to keep stepping up then support him through the bad patch. He'll come good.

Not only is 5 out of 6 a good return all things considered, one of them was a high-pressure penalty in the last minute at St Johnstone.
Smashed it down the middle, unstoppable really. Pity he's not a guaranteed start but if he's on the park he should be the first port of call.
